Dimplex class A heat pump. What are my options?

    Firstly, I have to say that I know nothing about boilers and heating systems. I spent most of my life in warm countries with no exposure to boilers and heating systems, and I only started using heating systems when I moved to Ireland a few years ago. So I don't know anything about the wiring systems or anything.

    I use Google home with a lot of smartlife products at home.. Switch boards, bulbs and smart plugs. I want to control my heating remotely. I have a Dimplex Class A heat pump which the builder installed. I know it has a timing function but honestly, I'd much rather just use it remotely.

    So I have a digital thermostat downstairs which controls the schedules and heating for the rooms downstairs and also the water, and I simple analog thermostat to just set the temperature upstairs (it just has a dial, thats it), but the schedule is controlled by the digital one downstairs.

    I have heard of some NWPM module which allows you to connect your thermostat to a LAN network, but I cannot find this online in any reliable place and it also seems really expensive.

    I was just wondering if I could just replace my digital thermostat with a smart one. I need something that can control 2 zones and also control hot water, which is also powered by my heat pump, and has to work with google home (I don't use alexa at all). At the very least, I can go with a system which requires multiple thermostats working together if a single one won't do it.

    Any suggestions?
