Boiler remote control

[Nickyd]

It really depends on what technology is built into the boiler ? being 15 years old I suspect it's pretty basic on off switching via external controls ? , The newer version Cosmo boilers have climate control via a external sensor and wi fi connection built in connected via a gateway device to the internet you control your heating via a downloaded app on your mobile phone or tablet , you can monitor the boiler status make changes when ever you need to from basically anywhere, some will even send a message to your phone if there's a problem with the boiler , also there is a installer app which once enabled will alert your chosen engineer to faults so he can deal with them on your behalf. Intergas boilers use the same Honeywell proven technology I've fitted those and it works very well , Nest is similar but is connected via a wired heat link , then wirelessly to the stat again controlled via the Nest app the information is internet based so is not 100% true external temperature a very versatile control and easy to use it won't send you fault information but you will get information via the app on boiler status time and temperature energy efficiency and a host of other info , Nest also have smoke alarms and security cameras which send information to you if heat or smoke is detected or in the case of security a movement sensor is triggered a few thing to think about

Shaun Corbes is probably the best engineer on our site to advise on wiring smart controls .

Thanks for the explanation.
I think what Im missig here to get some clear and definate solution is the detailed spec o my boiler.
In initial thread i attached the boiler documentation that received at my last service. it has some part number and serial number but if I need more to make things clearer I can ask my plumber for more details. what should i ask for?
cheers, Nick
