Smart Thermostat Installation in Kent
Want to control your heating from your phone? A smart thermostat gives you complete control over your home’s heating – whether you’re on the sofa or on holiday.
I professionally install the most popular smart thermostats: Hive, Tado, and Honeywell Evohome.
Why Go Smart?
Save money. Smart thermostats learn your routine and only heat your home when needed. Most people save 10-30% on their heating bills.
Control from anywhere. Forgot to turn the heating off? Running late? Adjust your heating from your phone, wherever you are.
Easy scheduling. Set up heating schedules that match your lifestyle. Change them anytime through the app.
Room-by-room control. With systems like Evohome, you can set different temperatures for different rooms – no more heating rooms you’re not using.
Boiler protection. Smart systems can detect when your boiler isn’t working properly and alert you before a breakdown.
Systems I Install
Hive – The most popular choice in the UK. Simple app, reliable performance, good integration with other Hive products. Works with Amazon Alexa and Google Home.
Tado – Great for energy savings with geofencing (automatically adjusts when you leave home). Clean design, excellent app. Good radiator valve options for room control.
Honeywell Evohome – The premium choice for full room-by-room control. Up to 12 zones, wireless radiator valves, weather compensation. The most sophisticated option.
Professional Installation
Smart thermostats need to connect to your boiler’s wiring – and sometimes need additional components like a receiver unit. Incorrect wiring can damage your boiler or cause the thermostat to malfunction.
I’ve installed hundreds of smart thermostats and know exactly how to wire them to different boiler types. I’ll also:
- Help you choose the right system for your home
- Set up the app on your phone
- Show you how to use all the features
- Program initial schedules based on your routine
- Test everything before I leave
Prices
Smart thermostat installation is charged at a fair, fixed rate plus the cost of the thermostat itself. I can supply the equipment or install one you’ve already bought.

What My Customers Say
"It took me a lot of googling before settling on Thames Boilers. The whole process from initial queries to online booking and service delivery was absolutely hassle free and impeccable. The chief engineer turned up on time, treated my house with great care, and made my old boiler running like new."
— Lei Yu, Kent
"Just needs one word - fantastic! First class service!! I was told I need a new boiler at cost of £2000, I rang George because of his reviews - they are truly justified! He replaced faulty part at a fraction of what I was quoted elsewhere! Thank you George, a customer forever."
— Michael Thompson, Gravesend
"Thames Boilers service is second to none, I've been using them for 7 years now. George is very polite, professional and gets the job done on time. He's always been punctual, even sends a text alert to let you know when he's on his way with an ETA and shares his journey so you know exactly when to expect him."
— Raj Uppal, Kent
Smart Thermostat Installation in Gravesend - FAQs
Will a smart thermostat work with my older boiler in Gravesend?
Most boilers from the last 15-20 years are compatible. Some older systems need adapters. I'll check your boiler before recommending any product - no point buying something that won't work.
Can smart thermostats help with my period property's uneven heating?
Yes - adding smart TRVs alongside a main thermostat gives room-by-room control. Perfect for older Gravesend properties where some rooms heat better than others.
How much can I save with a smart thermostat?
Most households save 10-15% on heating bills with proper use. Larger properties in Shorne and Cobham often see even better returns due to better zoning control.
