Smart thermostats may perform all of the functions of a traditional thermostat, but with the added benefit of digital technology.

They link to your central heating system through the internet and allow you to control the temperature or turn off the heating from anywhere in the house or when you are away using your smartphone, tablet, or smart device.

By having complete control over your heating, you can reduce the amount of wasted heat produced, ensuring that you only pay for the heat you consume.
