Smart Heating Controls Grants
The smart heating controls installed in your home will be determined by the type of heating system you have. If you have a gas boiler and radiators it makes sense to install room thermostats and individual radiator thermostats. An air source heat pump or electric storage heaters will require different types of smart heating control systems.
Each smart heating control system will be designed specifically for your home and it’s heating system.
The surveyor will take a ‘whole house’ approach and advise any other heating or insulation products which could help you to increase the energy efficiency of your home.
Wireless Smart Heating Controls
Most smart heating control systems are wireless and can be controlled from your smartphone, tablet or laptop remotely. Some are ‘Alexa™’ enabled and others activate when you say ‘Hey Google™’.
