FAQs
What advantages does a Wi-Fi enabled thermostat provide over a traditional room stat?
A Wi-Fi thermostat lets you adjust temperature and schedules from your smartphone, tablet or voice assistant wherever you are. It can learn your routine, adapt to local Lancing weather forecasts and send maintenance alerts. Customers typically see energy savings of 10–20 % because the system only heats or cools when it’s really needed, reducing fuel bills and carbon emissions.
Will a smart thermostat work with my existing heating and air-conditioning setup in Lancing?
In most cases, yes. Modern Wi-Fi stats integrate with combi and system boilers (S-Plan/Y-Plan), air-source and ground-source heat pumps, and multi-stage forced-air systems. During our free survey we check wiring, voltage and control valves. If your system is older or uses proprietary controls we can usually fit an adapter or relay to ensure full compatibility.
How does app-based scheduling actually save energy?
Using the mobile or web app you can create different time/temperature blocks for weekdays, weekends and holidays in minutes. The thermostat then follows that plan automatically, lowering the set-point when you’re asleep or out. Many models add geofencing—if every phone leaves a preset radius around your Lancing home the heating switches to Eco mode. The result is less run-time for the boiler or AC compressor, cutting energy waste without sacrificing comfort.
Do I need a C-wire (common wire) and what if my current wiring doesn’t have one?
A C-wire supplies constant 24 V power to the thermostat. UK systems often lack this wire, but that’s not a problem. We can: • repurpose an unused core in the existing cable • add a power-extender kit supplied by the thermostat manufacturer • run a discreet new cable from the wiring centre All options are covered in our fixed installation price, so you won’t face hidden costs.
Can I control different zones or individual rooms separately?
Yes. If your home already has motorised zone valves, the Wi-Fi thermostat can replace each zone’s controller. Alternatively, we can add wireless smart TRVs (thermostatic radiator valves) or room sensors that talk to a single hub. You’ll then be able to set a unique temperature for the lounge, bedrooms or home office and track usage room-by-room in the app.
What support and warranties come with your thermostat upgrade service in Lancing?
All installations include a 2-year labour warranty backed by our local team based in West Sussex. The thermostat itself carries a 3- to 5-year manufacturer warranty. If you ever have an issue we offer 24/7 phone support and aim for same-day call-outs within the BN15 postcode area. Firmware updates are delivered over the air, so your system keeps getting new features and security patches with no extra charge.
