Get Smart This Summer: Upgrade Your Thermostat Before Autumn Arrives

Stay cosy and save money this autumn with a smart thermostat that learns your routine and lets you control heating remotely.

As the last weeks of summer drift by, now is the perfect time to future-proof your home before the cooler weather sets in. One of the smartest and most cost-effective upgrades you can make is installing a smart thermostat, like Hive, Nest or Tado. These clever devices are designed to take the guesswork out of heating, offering comfort, control and potential savings in one sleek package.

Smart thermostats work by learning your daily routines and temperature preferences. Whether you’re heading to work, out for a weekend stroll, or having a lazy Sunday indoors, your thermostat will adjust accordingly, keeping your home warm when you need it, and conserving energy when you don’t. Many models also offer geolocation features, switching your heating off automatically when you leave and back on as you return.
Installation is relatively straightforward, and many suppliers offer professional fitting services.

Once set up, you’ll be able to control your heating remotely via smartphone, tablet, or even voice command, ideal for those days when the weather changes unexpectedly or your plans shift.

What’s more, a smart thermostat can help reduce your energy consumption and, in turn, your heating bills. By fine-tuning your usage, it avoids unnecessary waste while maintaining a comfortable living environment. Over time, this not only benefits your wallet but also the planet.

By acting now – before autumn's chill sets in – you’ll be one step ahead. You’ll gain more control over your energy use, enjoy a warmer and more responsive home, and potentially save money during the colder months.

So why not make this summer the season you finally go smart? Your future self, and your future heating bill, will thank you.
