Do You Need Approval?
Fitting a smart thermostat doesn't need planning permission. Replacing controls on an existing heating circuit is usually minor electrical work, but it must be done safely by someone competent, and wiring inside a boiler is often best left to a Gas Safe engineer.

Questions about this work
Can you fit smart thermostats anywhere in Rhondda Cynon Taf?
Installers may cover towns and villages across Rhondda Cynon Taf. Enter your postcode to check who is available for your heating controls.
Does a smart thermostat need Wi-Fi?
Yes, for app control and remote access. The thermostat itself will usually keep running its schedule if the internet drops, but you won't be able to change settings remotely until it reconnects.
Can I control hot water with a smart thermostat?
Yes, if you have a system or regular boiler with a cylinder and choose a model with hot water control. With a combi boiler, hot water is produced on demand, so only the heating needs controlling.
How long does smart thermostat installation take?
Most installations take one to three hours, including removing old controls, wiring the receiver, pairing the thermostat and setting up the app.
