Nest or climote.

Ok, but if I only got one nest, can I put two areas on that and leave the third zone on my existing ‘dumb’ system?

I think you're going into the territory where you'll need a professional..

However I'll try.. if you've 3 valves, and your current system can control all 3 independently of each other, then it's likely you can fit 2 nests and keep your current system (which now, will be a clock for one zone with maybe a thermostat)

As previous poster said, a 3rd gen nest can control one zone plus hot water.

I only have a single nest that does 2 zones, 1 for heating and 1 for water…. I can't separate my heating.. it's either on or off everywhere..

Climote still exists, I have it and renewed it recently.

Each individual Google Nest controls a zone with the option of adding hot water control onto each. You obviously need a heating system that is split into multiple zones

@sheep shagger Can I ask if you reccomend changing over to Nest and if you might have an approximate cost to change over?
We’ve just had gas installed, setup with Climote, but as the Vodafone network coverage is weak where we live there is no network coverage on the Climote so we can’t access remotely.
Wondering if it would be worth the cost to change to a Nest system, and if the only advantage is remote access?

the Nest costs €220 on Amazon and if you are half handy doing some basic wiring, you can install it yourself.

I installed my own 8 years ago.
