Smart heating controls: what the job involves

Fitting app-controlled thermostats, zone valves, programmers and smart radiator valves so heating and hot water can be zoned, timed and controlled from a phone. SEAI grant-aids a full heating controls upgrade in older homes.

How long it takes: A smart thermostat on its own usually takes two to four hours; a full zoning upgrade with new valves takes a day.
