Recent house renovations provided the perfect opportunity to rethink the heating system in my home and test out the smart Hive Thermostat for T3. While building work was in full swing last year with rooms reconfigured and various radiators moved, taken out or newly installed, I used a basic thermostat to control what little heat the house retained. As a result, finally going smart with Hive felt like a long time coming.
We now have two separate heating zones in the house – I chose Wunda’s Rapid Response Underfloor Heating for the kitchen/living area, and, for the purposes of this test, I’ve had the Hive Thermostat installed to control the radiators in the existing part of the house. To date, both solutions are working well and have been simple to control and effective.
