Wow i didn’t realise they are that easy to install. I’m now thinking of upgrading my programer and room stat. Also my understanding is you only need to be Gas safe Registered if you install and connect the gas supply to the boiler. Great Video as always Ben
Brilliant and informative video mate. Would i be right in saying theres also a hive thermostat without a receiver, that also has wifi, that you just wire into your existing wiring for your old 2 channel timer? In other words the thermostat looks identical to the one you just set up, except all your live, neutral, earth, NO, NC etc terminals are actually on the back of the thermostat?
Looking to upgrade to one of these this winter for myself. Thanks for the excellent video dude. Subbed. Im new in trade - what would you charge for something like this? I have a friend that wants one installed and has asked me to do it. He can be my guinea pig before i do mine ha ha.
In all fairness, you can remove the front decorative casing, its the silver combustion case thats the biggie for the combustion chamber you need to be badged up for.
Unless you know the difference between boilers you should always use a gas safe engineer to wire in your thermostat. Not all boilers allow access to the electric inside without compromise the combustion seal . Ideal logics are one !!!! Take care guys

Mate, they are so simple for any spark. I have a nest in my house and its brilliant - Cheers mate
Just bought a Hive system and we were going to pay a spark to have it fitted but after watching your vid I’m going to install it myself!

I think they all have a reviver and a control. All the wiring goes to the control and the stat is wireless and battery powered

They do help with controlling the heating. Espically when you’re not home. To switch it over I would charge around £100

Great vid mate 👍🏼🙂
Thanks for the visit
Sorted, cheers
No worries mate
Do you prefer Hive or Nest Ben?
I have a nest, but I think they both do the same thing really. I suppose hive has the battery's in and the nest is wall mounted and needs a supply,
