Adding a smart thermostat to a combi boiler

Question

How easy is it to add a smart thermostat to a combi boiler? Is it a DIY or expert job?

Ryan · Answer

It’s not a diy job you have to be competent with electrics and heating controls

Christopher · Answer

If you are replacing an existing thermostat with existing wiring I would suggest using a competent person if the boiler case is required to be removed for the installation then they would need to be gas-safe registered as well. If you go to the Drayton 
wiser website you can input your postcode and find a business that has been approved and are local to you. Hope that helps and good luck

DIY, most of the time it's a straight swap. You'll be taking of your timer and replacing it with the xmart stat receiver.

David · Answer

You’d better get a competent person to do it as these thermostats must be compatible with the boiler , you may have been able to program It after !!

Jason · Answer

You should really have installed by gas safe engineer or electrician

Gary · Answer

Yes it is easy but are you qualified and have part p qualifications ?

Nick · Answer

Very. Although depending on where you want your hub etc depends if a diy type person can do it. Mount it next to your boiler then it’s easy. Although your not allowed to remove the boiler case

Stanley · Answer

Depends on your level of skill. 

Its 2 wires inside your boiler. 

It does mean opening the case of your boiler so should ideally be done by a professional.

James · Answer

Depends on the boiler. If the case is part of the combustion seal then you need to be gas safe registered
