As we head into the colder months, discussions about when to turn the heating on are becoming more frequent. Many of us find ourselves shivering on the sofa, stubbornly resisting the urge to crank the heat up, especially as we’ve not even reached December. However, it’s important to know that there are other ways to save money on energy usage, some of which don’t involve becoming a human ice block.
Smart home heating systems have grown in popularity recently, mostly due to the comfort, convenience and efficiency they bring to our homes. Most systems typically include thermostats, sensors and a variety of other connected devices that work together to optimise heating according to user preference. Whilst potential buyers may hesitate due to interior design concerns, there are options available that effortlessly combine style with functionality. Allow me to introduce you to Wiser…
Wiser is the smart home heating system from Drayton, one of the UK’s leading heating control brands. Designed to work alongside your existing heating setup, the award-winning Wiser system combines smart features with the easy-to-use Wiser Home App to bring users a complete home heating solution.
The Wiser system is made up of a Wiser HubR and Smart Room Thermostat, alongside Wiser Multi-room Kits that offer room-by-room control. Smart Radiator Thermostats offer individual control of each radiator in the house, allowing users to only heat the rooms they want to.
Each aspect of the Wiser system is controlled via the Wiser Home App, and can be switched on and off at the touch of a button. There are a bunch of impressive features to utilise, including Wiser’s clever Smart Modes to help users save up to 16% more on energy bills. Wiser Insights helps users make informed decisions about home heating, whilst the Heat Report provides real-time visibility into the system’s performance.
Installation is also quick and easy to complete, especially as the Wiser system is compatible with the majority of modern boilers, including combi boilers. All you have to do is unscrew your old controller and screw in your new Heat Hub, download the Wiser Home App, and follow the step-by-step instructions provided to add your devices.
The Wiser system is available in classic white or stylish anthracite, two neutral colourways that will suit a variety of interior spaces. The system that’s right for you will depend on the set up and layout of your home. If you take the Wiser multi-zone Kit 1 as an example, costing £309, and allow for an additional three smart radiator thermostats so you have room-to-room control, costing £160, that’s a total cost of just under £470 for the full system, plus installation costs if you opt to use an installer.
