Different between wireless and wifi thermostats.

Never tried the wifi one though suspect it might be as you say. Wireless ones work great (but obviously only talk to the controller.)

I would be interested in this. We have a thermostat in a stupid location which I would like to replace with a wireless one. Totally basic offering purely a thermostat with no programming etc.

We've got a controller with wireless thermostat that does hot water & heating. It's brilliant. It's a Honeywell.

I think they also do thermostats on their own.

Use Honeywell almost exclusively, good product.

Trail_rat - I'm not planning on changing the control panel, just want to relocate the thermostat. Would it not mess with the control panel having programming on the thermostat aswell? I'm no plumber so want to keep it simple.

I have three of those Salus RT500RF ones in rental houses, not quite as easy to programme as the Honeywell mostly down to very badly written instructions, easy enough when you get your head round it, but never had one go wrong.

They are normally set up to bypass any programmer on the boiler panel.
