Also just to add this is an easy install for someone who has basic electrical knowledge and can often just replace your existing thermostat or receiver with the hive receiver

I thought there would be instruction on the net on how to replace a Landis and Gyr programmer with this. Unfortunately I couldn't find anything. If anyone has seen such instruction or video please let me know.

This is the problem, all boilers and thermostats are wired differently, so will vary from person to person

Should be just a matter of finding a wiring diagram for yours then comparing the 2. Both will have L & N. Then its just a matter of finding HW on H on HW off and H off.

As this has a battery powered thermostat, does anyone have any advice for what to do with the wires from an existing mains powered thermostat?

You can just disconnect them from your boiler and place a blanking plate in its place, or you can use the wires to connect the hive receiver, however the receiver is best placed next to the boiler

I used some choc block (toolstation.com/sho…539) to just link the wires in the mains thermostat, and put that inside the back box, with the Hive thermostat mounted on the front. Otherwise the heating wouldn't come on, as the circuit goes [Control box] - [Old Thermostat] - [Boiler].
Make sure you check wiring diagrams though!

Thanks for this. I won't be touching anything myself as I have a friend who is an electrician. Just trying to gauge what is involved. I already have a wrieless thermostat, so it should be a straight forward job for him!

i got one when screwfix were selling them off, great bit of kit, mine is heating and hot water , i just got a blanking plate for where the old thermostat was
you can power the hub via usb on home hub 6 , dont needs mains adaptor

I've already got a Hive Hub for Wifi Light Bulbs that I got free with British Gas. I believe you should be able to add this thermostat to the existing Hive Hub if you have one rather than connect the one up you get in this package. Maybe sell it on eBay for a few quid or keep as a spare.
Also stay away from the accessories as they're an obvious rip off i.e >
