*Works great: **Fastly.Cool** and Warming environment perfectly controlled. I use 3 in different grow tents. It’s nice to see from your phone how your tent temps are. Does High and Low and records data.*

The heating boost function kicks into action as soon as you touch it. It should have an 'execute' or 'save' button, to stop it turning the heating on unnecessarily.

I have two questions: When I turn on the hot water, does the heating also turn on, is this normal? To have hot water in the kitchen, do I always have to turn on the hot water first using the remote control?

I wonder if you're thinking of getting TRV the smart radiator valve from Hive for your rooms. I would be interested in your opinion on them.

I am getting a new boiler (ideal vogue system boiler) and HIVE has been highly suggested!! Should I go for it or rather go for Nest? Is Hive openTherm, adjust to temp accordingly and also compativble with wheather compensator?

[@oktimeforplanl]

I would go for Hive purely because google have more of a reputation for abandoning their old tech.

[@stevemoss7793]

You said the batteries last quite a long time, then in the next breath that you've had to change them 3 times in two and a half years?!

[@welsty2003]

9 months or so isn't a bad battery life. 🤷‍♂️

My engineer set the hive to 30 mins heat . To do this he set controls then showed me how to use it . Today tho after I push heat button I didn’t push confirm tick . But heating still went on for the Half hour . So now an wary what to do . I have tried to contact British Gas no success . So hope can use hot water . To me it all seems complicated . Or maybe I just don’t get it

[@janforrest7256]

How does this get set up initially. I have had a new boiler fitted and only have heat for one hour a day. How do I set daily timings

[@TheNailSpecialist]

Am I right in thinking for the combination boiler would need heating only the red box?

[@muhammadasadkhan7889]

max heating temperature it can be achieved/handle?

[@pelemasa2516]

What difference between heating and heating plus water ones???

[@john7046]

will this work with a worcester combiner's boiler ?

[@claudettejoseph8400]

I am struggling turning heating off last worker left heating on didn't show me how to turn heating off help

[@leszekzero9035]

the only problem with them is that they don’t show water temperature

[@paulinecarolan5001]

My hot water won’t heat with hive why would this be

[@smarthomemag]

quite a reliable system tbh

[@shaikhwasimahmed5492]

how to increase presure from hive controler

[@fh1951]

Rubbish programming schedule optional, as each programming slot is linked with the previous and next slots. In effect, this reduces the daily programming options from 6 to 4. Pretty stupid!
