Turn heating or hot water on or off remotely
Adjust your home’s temperature from your phone

Smart Tech That Learns Your Routine
The best part? Smart boiler controls can learn your daily habits and adjust automatically.
They’ll start to heat your home just before you wake up or arrive home—and turn things down when no one’s around. That means less fiddling with settings and more comfort, more savings, and less waste.
Let Your Heating Know When You’re Out
Some smartphone heating controls come with GPS tracking, which means your system can detect when you've left home and switch off the heating automatically.
When you're heading back, it’ll turn the heating back on—so it’s warm when you walk through the door. It’s like having a personal assistant for your boiler.

Weather compensation adjusts your heating based on the forecast
Load compensation helps your boiler run more efficiently
Zoned control lets you heat rooms separately

These features make smart heating an investment in long-term comfort and savings.
