Hive Thermostat will it work?

Options
Hi.

I just moved into a new property yesterday. There is no room thermostat, instead every radiator has it’s on thermostat. Would I be able to get a Hive or Nest or similar fitted if I don’t have a general room thermostat. I have gas boiler with a programmer.

Last property I had a nest fitted... stupidly didn’t remove it and take with me.

Thanks

    You might want to look at replacing each TVR with programmable ones.

    That way you don't have a single thermostat trying to control multiple rooms you have each room as a separate zone in the system with its own temperature profile.

    don't have to do them all at once.

    There are a few companies that do these.

    Hive have been promising them for ages not sure what the current release promise is

    Give takes the place of both room thermostat and programmer.
