These smart radiator thermostats replace the TRVs (thermostatic radiator valves) on your radiator, the type that let you adjust the temperature of the radiator manually. Carrie-Ann Skinner was formerly Homes Editor at TechRadar, and has more than two decades of experience in both online and print journalism, with 13 years of that spent covering all-things tech. You'll be tapping into the latest smart technology that's easy to set up and install, and to make it even easier, there's always a human to speak to when you need with our Support Team. Note that the radiator thermostats are powered by two AA batteries, which can be easily replaced by removing the cover on the back of the radiator thermostat. The smart features on Drayton Wiser are great, but they can’t match the smarts of thermostats such as the Google Nest, which is able to turn off the heating in a particular room if no-one is in it.

As well as letting you set a schedule for your heating through the Wiser app, you can also turn on any radiator for between 30 minutes to three hours to boost the temperature in the room at any point, either via the app or through the thermostat itself.

If you like to keep one eye on savings and the other on taking care of your carbon footprint, it pays to understand your heating use. Open the Insights and Heat Report to check your energy consumption to help pop a few pennies away for a rainy day. However, unlike its rivals, there’s no-way to view the current temperature of a room from the thermostat itself; to do that, you’ll need to open the app. If the heating is on in a particular room, for that room the flame icon to the left of the screen will be orange; if the room isn’t being heated then it’s a black and white outline. Whether that's getting the kids ready for bed with nightlights on and cosy bedrooms, or when you're rustling up dinner and need your slow cooker on, with the heating cooled in the kitchen.
