Smart thermostat installation in Houghton-le-spring

Whether you’re upgrading your home heating system or fitting one for the first time, search for checked smart thermostat installers in Houghton-le-spring with Checkatrade for a commitment to quality and a job done right.

What is a smart thermostat?

A smart thermostat is a WiFi-connected device that allows you to control your home’s heating system remotely via a smartphone or computer.

Unlike traditional thermostats, smart models learn your habits, adjust automatically, and can even track real-time energy use.

Benefits of smart thermostats

Installing a smart thermostat isn’t just about convenience; it’s also an investment in energy efficiency.

The key benefits of a smart thermostat include:

  • Lower energy bills: Smart thermostats prevent wasted heating by learning your schedule and adjusting automatically
  • Remote control: Turn your heating on or off from anywhere using an app
  • Energy insights: Track energy use and identify opportunities to save money
  • Integration: Compatible with smart home systems like Alexa and Google Home

Smart thermostat installation costs

The cost of installing a smart thermostat depends on your chosen brand and whether installation is included.

Here are some average costs of some of the popular smart thermostats (incl. installation):

  • Tado°: £170
  • Hive: £225
  • Nest: £205 (unit only)
  • Wave: £180 (unit only)
  • Ecobee: £165 (unit only)
  • Honeywell: £170 (unit only)

If you hire an electrician separately, their typical rate is around £40 per hour. For a complete breakdown, see our smart thermostat installation cost guide.

DIY vs hiring a checked installer

While it’s possible to install a smart thermostat yourself, hiring a checked installer ensures it’s fitted safely, calibrated correctly, and fully integrated with your HVAC system.

Hiring an installer will also help to ensure system compatibility — not all boilers or heating systems support every smart thermostat brand.

Are smart thermostats worth it?

For most homes, a smart thermostat is a worthwhile investment.

It can cut your heating bills by up to 25% over time and offers convenient control that traditional thermostats can’t match.

Tips for hiring a smart thermostat installer in your area

Before hiring a smart thermostat installer near you, check the following to ensure you hire right:

  • Read reviews on Checkatrade to see feedback from real customers
  • Check the installer’s experience with the brand and model you’ve chosen
  • Ask whether they can run you through how your new thermostat works
  • Compare at least three quotes to ensure competitive pricing

For tradespeople committed to quality and a job done right, search for smart thermostat installation in Houghton-le-spring with Checkatrade.
