Does it have a receiver box which is wired into the boiler? If so, the hive system has an equivalent box which should be straightforward to swap.
Dramatic_Hammer-
I wanted to install Hive recently but from scratch with no existing connection between thermo and boiler.
After considering frying the control board for a bit I decided to get a professional to fit one for £50.
You can buy the Hive unit and have a nosey to see if things line up neatly and if they don't get a guy in to install it for you.
If there is already a connection going to the boiler you should be well set to just connect the boiler to the wireless unit with the same wired connection.

Alright kiddoes.
My boiler currently has THIS sort of basic thermostat which is fine but a pain to program. I'd love to have one that talked to a mobile app or Alexa type thing. Is that something I could install myself or will I need a plumber?
