worcester boiler controls

[apples12]

Hi All,

we've moved into our house as of 6 months ago and now that the temperatures are starting to drop we're realising we would quite like some sort of wireless boiler control so we can switch on the heating from our bedroom for a nice toasty living room!

what sort of boiler control is best/would people recommend? we have a Worcester greenstar 28i boiler which currently has an archaic temperature timer on it (the kind where you move the little plasticky bits in or out)

At some point I will also be investing in some sort of wifi/remote controlled lighting switches on a few points so would be good if the boiler controls would integrate with a system for them.

any pointers?

if your boiler is less than 5 years old, (which it might be) you can get the worcester wave, but it isn't wireless, you have to run a 2 core cable from the contrtoller that plugs into the boiler, other options are Nest and Hive,
your existing timer can be disconnected, but if you take it out you'll be left with a gap in the facia unless you can find the original blanking cover from somewhere

the honeywell single zone connected thermostat could be a good choice.
