  • I'm looking at replacing my boiler thermostat. Current thermostat just has one pair of wires going to it like this:

    I'm assuming this is just a switch and, as such, all the smart thermostats that seem to require mains power wouldn't be compatible without extra wiring, I'd need something battery powered? Am I understanding that right? Cheers

  • If you're going with smart TRVs, you probably don't even need a thermostat.

    As it is, and afaik, most smart thermostats are battery powered in any case.

  • Nothing stopping you placing the receiver at the boiler end of those wires, where you'll also have a ready source of mains.
