    Hive vs Wave

    Yes I think you are probably right. Apparently the wave uses weather data to use a more economical setting during mild weather. I would also get two more years guarantee but then I would already get eight years cover. So unless it breaks down a couple of times between 2024 and 2026 I will...

    Hive vs Wave

    Thanks for your reply but I already have the hive fitted so it's real between that and Worcester's own control which apparently has more sophisticated control over the boiler.
