So we've got a 'Ideal Vogue C32 Gen2 boiler' and the thermostat unit (Touch) keeps playing up, so we need to replace that.
I've looked at this 'Halo' thermostat that's posted all over Ideal's own webpage, but when chatting the their customer service they state they don't sell or install it, and they also say that it's not compatible with our boiler, and the only thing they offered to replace it with was with a thermostat that came before Touch, and doesn't have wifi or an app or anything, so that seemed silly.
I've had a look online and read something about it needing a "Smart Interface Bracket" fitted so that we can have Halo installed.
Are there any other alternative thermostats that are good and easy to install (plug and play) ?
I've seen something called 'Hive' but not sure if that's compatible with our boiler.
Would this interface bracket and halo be the best option to replace our 'touch' with or are there other options I should look at ?
