WiFi heating control.

    Hi All,

    I have a two storey house,2500sq ft, oil heated, two zones, upstairs and downstairs plus hot water .

    All three ( two zones + hot water )have a valve to allow hot water in controlled via the 3 thermostats.

    The oil is set to come on via analog timer for 1.5 hours in the morning and 1.5 hours in the evening I from late October to late May.

    The other 5 months oil is on for 1 hour in the morning only to heat hot water in 300L cylinder.

    We also have a solid fuel Stanley 15kw stove , no back boiler lit every evening in winter.

    The house is well insulated and the heating as described above keeps the house at 18 to 21 deg C upstairs .

    With the stove lighting and doors open to allow circulation of the heat downstairs heat is 25ish deg C for most of the winter in large living area room and 21ish in the other rooms.

    The one zone downstairs is not really suitable as the thermostat is in the room with the stove.

    My question is can I get a wifi system with wifi valves on all the rads to turn the oil burner on and off therefore creating a separate control able zone for each room .

    Or is there a better way?

    If you got this far cheers for taking the time.
