Control your home’s heating and water systems with the latest energy-efficient thermostats

Your house uses a range of thermostats, these include a room thermostat to control the central heating; a thermostat on your cylinder to tell the boiler to heat your water when it gets too cold, and thermostatic radiator valves, so that some unused rooms such as the spare bedroom can be left cooler than others that are in constant use.

PROS

• Add everything together and you could cut your fuels bills by around 17 per cent.

CONS

• Can’t think of any!
