Smart heating is one of those projects that every single one of us knows we should be considering in our homes, but which can sometimes feel like climbing a mountain – if you've never invested in part of a system before, then it's a little "all or nothing". Having only recently graduated into home ownership, I've recently been able to test out Wiser's second-generation smart home platform, launched in the middle of 2025.
In my case, that meant a replacement hub for my boiler, alongside a couple of additional accessories, plus radiator thermostats around my flat – basically a way to go from 0 to 100 in terms of room-by-room control. On the evidence I've seen so far, it's an impressively robust and easy-to-use system, albeit not a massively cheap one.
