HEATING CONTROLS
Smart home heating systems offer a significant upgrade from traditional setups, providing homeowners with greater control over their energy usage, comfort, and costs. Unlike standard systems, this tech allows you to manage your heating and hot water remotely via a smartphone app, ensuring energy is used only when it’s needed. This level of control helps prevent wasted energy, as you won’t be heating an empty home or charging hot water cylinders unnecessarily. “Home tech, such as a smart heating system, can also increase the value of your property,” says James Clark, technical training manager at Wiser. “In fact, recent research has revealed that almost a third of Brits (32%) would pay more for a house with smart home technology, and over a third (35%) said that smart home tech makes a home more desirable.”
