About this deal

Convenient overview: the room’s current temperature, its relative humidity and the status of the heating controller are shown at a glance. The control panel and radiator thermostats aren't going to win any design awards, coming as they do in plain white plastic, but that's not really the point of the Evohome. It's expensive, too - as you'll need a smart valve for each radiator in your home. However, it's worth it for the granular control you get over your heating. This allows you to only have heating on when you need it, and in the rooms you need it – potentially saving money on heating bills. Thanks to its compact size (87 x 51 x 51 mm (LxWxD)) and swivelling display, it fits discreetly into your living room – either horizontally or vertically mounted. turn the boiler on or off remotely with the smart thermostat or changing the setting of a radiator valve

The short answer is yes, but we recommend calling in professional help if you want to convert your regular thermostat into a smart thermostat. This is because the process requires some relatively complex electrical work, which shouldn't be attempted unless you know what you're doing. Controlling the device via the Bosch Smart Home app is convenient, simple and possible from anywhere. The app can be used to set a comfortable temperature to within half a degree Celsius. In addition, the current temperatures of all Radiator Thermostats II can be viewed in the app whenever desired. For maximal convenience, all Radiator Thermostats II per room are automatically combined in a single room-temperature control. This eliminates the need for manual adjustment of individual radiators. Your device lights up blue and red to show you the start and end of the heating break during ventilation. This way, kids cannot adjust anything on the smart thermostats – and you can still control the room temperature conveniently via app, voice assistant or room thermostat. Love the idea of zonal heating control, but don't want to break the bank? Then Drayton Wiser is worth considering.You'll need a thermostat for each radiator in your home to get the most out of the system. Still, as thermostats are around a third cheaper than rival systems from Honeywell and Tado, the overall cost is more affordable.

Individual Room Control

There’s also a scheduled mode. Again, this too is basic. You can set a “Warm phase” and “Cold phase” temperature, and then the schedule lets you choose which periods use each phase.

However, you won't get the 'smarter' functions or complete heating control that's possible with a smart thermostat and smart radiator valve setup. Changes made to a Radiator Thermostat happen immediately, with the LCD showing the change in temperature. The valve can take a few seconds to respond and start moving. As with rival products, the motor makes a high-pitched wine; it’s quiet enough, but it may take a while to get used to the sound in your bedroom. Some smart thermostats use AI to adjust your heating and cooling schedule based on how long it takes your home to heat up or cool down. In contrast, others include sensors that automatically switch the heating and cooling system off if they detect an open window or think no one is using the house at the time, saving even more energy. This isn’t particularly flexible, as you may want to have a room warmer in the evening when there’s no sun, and cooler during the day. It would make more sense if, like rival systems, Bosch let you set a more detailed schedule. Fail-safe protection for reliable operation at all times thanks to protection against frost and calcification, as well as warning when the battery is low and regular testing of the valve functionCould you be left in the cold if your heating breaks down? Not in a smart home! Your radiator thermostats feature a number of protective functions to minimize the risk of a breakdown: A number of smart thermostats within a room can be combined in the app to give an overall room temperature and controlled in groups – optionally particularly precisely with a room thermostat . It's simple to use and will switch the boiler on or off earlier than scheduled to ensure rooms in your home are at the temperature you want when you want them. It's also got Open Window Detection to help stop energy wastage by switching off the boiler if it detects a window has been opened and works with Alexa and Google Assistant. The Room Thermostat II and Room Thermostat II 230 V are also convincing thanks to their modern LED display, which clearly and legibly displays all information relevant to room-temperature control. Intuitive operation by turning and pushing the button of the Room Thermostat II and Room Thermostat II 230 V is now additionally supported by visual signals from a multicoloured LED strip. For example, red LEDs indicate that the temperature is being increased, while blue LEDs show that the temperature is being lowered. Below are the three simplest heating setups. We show you what you can and can't do with them. Thermostat and thermostatic radiator valves
