How do you swoop one for the other?
None of them. @eph ember, esi. Nest for us
Does Hive Original have the same smart features as the mini for iPhones
Does this HIVE controller/thermostat/system offer the ability to
A) run the controller in parallel to the existing timer/controller (we leave our house with people that dont use apps staying that need to just be able to press the boost button for heat/hot water)
B) operate with zigbee/hive window sensors to change the behavior if there's a door/window open (so for example run at 21'C but if window is open run at 19'C) – if it does can i just create alerts based on a window/door being open at 11PM (to make me aware we left a window open before going to bed)
C) can i have 2 thermostats if I only have one already – so in the lounge I have a log burner that we only use in winter – so I'm looking for a rule that the heating can come on if the bedroom is cold even if the lounge is boiling
There is a hub vs hubless versions, what will i lose if i chose hubless as its cheaper however i like the flexibility go switch on off gesting remotely via internet
hi can I have one original thermostate in kitchen /dining and 6 more mini in other rooms can this work as system together ?
I have try buy this on hive website but it docent let me mix thermostats when choosing multizone
thx
Hi I have a conventional boiler just for central heating with an old nest thermostat. I want to change this thermostat to a Hive but not sure if I should get a combi hive system or conventional hive system. We will probably have to get a new boiler in the near future so I would prefer if we didnt have to upgrade the Hive when we do. Can I buy the combi Hive system and use it only for central heating ? Thanks in advance!
Hi . Just watched your video on the old hive and the mini. I have a valiant combi eco tec boiler , heating and hot water but no tank. Would you still go for the mini ? Or Is there a better stat for heating only ?
I fitted a hive active V3 wireless heating smart thermostat, then took it out because the display went out after about 5 seconds and it was heating and hot water. To many options to scroll through.
Any advise. Many thanks Martin.
Hi, Already have the original one, want to buy another thermostat for multizone, can work origina and mini together?
Is the receiver next to the boiler the same for both models? I’ve seen videos that show how easy it is to switch my current British Gas one for the Hive
Hi my hive app keeps disconnecting can’t reconnect need to call hive company which is frustrating. Any idea what is the problem ???
