Programmable Radiator Controls
Does anyone have any of these in their house, and how reliable are they? I would like to put them in a few rooms (including the baby's room so we can have the heating on in the evening without his room ending up roasting hot!), but a small amount of research indicates they seem to break a lot, or reset themselves?
I can only find a thread on here from a few years ago- if there is a more recent one, please direct me!
Thanks

There are various solutions ranging from manual TRVs for each room through to zoning systems like Evohome or Heat Genius with controllable TRVs. There are a number of threads on this issue on this forum.

I have installed Evohome. Wifi TRVs are expensive but you do not need to fit them to all your rooms. Evohome now connects to IFTTT so you could set up a recipe such as 'If the baby's room reaches 22C, then text me'.
Do your research carefully.0
