We fitted a Hive smart thermostat, which we supplied, in place of the old one, and tested it with the heating on Boost. The last photo shows the Hive receiver beside the boiler, with its two green lights on. Our smart thermostats page compares Hive with the other makes we fit.
Before we left, we set up the Hive app on the customer’s phone and explained how to use it, so they can control their heating from the app.

Rust at the back of the heat exchanger and a carbon monoxide reading on the analyser, in a house with a young family. We capped the boiler off, told the tenant and landlord, and replaced the cracked flue collector and gaskets with the landlord's permission.
Read the case studyMentioned at the boiler service: one room never got warm enough. The radiator was working, just too small, so we replaced the single-panel radiator with a double.
Read the case studyThe customer mentioned the leak and the heating staying on when we arrived for the service. The diverter valve had rust and corrosion around its ports, so a new one went in. Combustion tested clean.
