Heating Controls
What it is:
Smart thermostats, zone controls, and thermostatic radiator valves that let you heat only the rooms you’re using, only when you need it.
How it works:
Most homes heat the whole house to one temperature on one schedule. Smart, zoned controls let different rooms run at different temperatures and times – heating the living room in the evening without also heating an empty spare room.
Key benefits:
- One of the lowest-cost upgrades on this list
- Works with your existing boiler or heat pump - no need to replace the heating system itself
- Can be controlled remotely, so you’re not heating an empty house by mistake
What it costs:
Typically £150–£600 depending on how many rooms/zones you control.
Is it right for your home?
Suits virtually every home and every heating system — usually one of the easiest upgrades to justify, and often recommended alongside a bigger measure rather than on its own.
