Thermostat installation and replacement in Reading and Berkshire

Smart, programmable or a straightforward replacement

We install and replace compatible room thermostats, programmers and electric underfloor-heating controls. Tell us whether you want app access, a weekly schedule, separate room control or simply a reliable replacement for a faulty unit.

Check compatibility before buying

An electric boiler control and a thermostat switching an electric floor or heater can have different wiring and load requirements. We check the existing control, wiring arrangement, connected load and any receiver or floor sensor before confirming a suitable replacement.

What installation includes

The agreed work can include removal of the old control, fitting and connection of the compatible replacement, checking the heating response and setting up the schedule. For app-connected products, have your phone and Wi-Fi details available for setup.

Get a thermostat quotation

Use the enquiry form or email photographs of the existing thermostat front, appliance label and the room or zone it controls. Do not remove wired covers for photographs. Include your postcode, current symptoms and the make and model of any replacement you have already bought.

Common questions

Useful answers

Can you fit thermostat wiring before I buy one?

Yes. We can identify the existing conductors, switching method and heating load so you choose a compatible control.

Can one thermostat control every electric heater?

It depends on the system design and electrical load. Some heaters use individual controls; others can be zoned through suitable contactors or receivers.
