    I have a baxi boiler and want to get a thermostat fitted so it will turn on and off and keep the room at 20 degrees. With my old boiler i was able to let it get to 20 degrees or so and turn it down and it would then switch on and off an d keep that temp

    But the baxi seems to be on and off all the time to do that and is annoying.It gets too hot sometimes with it.

    So can someone tell me of a wireless thermostat and how much it would be to fit approx

    You should look into getting a nest installed

    Would a Honeywell Digital T8775A1009 Round Non-Programmable Heat-Only do? I cannot link it

    It's a programmable thermostat that you can control from your phone or just use as normal

    Then a standard timer will suit you. The Cost would depend in where it goes and the wiring involved

    No the stat will control the temp. The timer will tell the boiler when to come on and once it's warm enough the stat will turn the boiler off
