How much does it cost to install a smart thermostat in Spain?

Smart thermostat installation cost

What a smart thermostat costs to install depends mainly on the heating or cooling system it connects to. The guide reference for installation is 80 to 150 euros, plus the device.

Which systems it works with

• Gas or oil boiler, replacing the wall thermostat.
• Air conditioning, wired or with an infrared or Wi-Fi controller.
• Aerothermal heat pumps (aerotermia), with the manufacturer’s compatible thermostat or a home automation control.
• Electric underfloor heating, with a floor thermostat and probe.
• Electric heating with panel heaters or radiators.

Benefits

• Scheduling: the home warms up or cools down before you arrive.
• Control from your phone, even when you are away.
• Zones: no heating or cooling empty bedrooms by day or the living room at night.
• Usage data, to fine tune and save.
• Integration with voice assistants and the rest of your home automation.

What to check

• Compatibility with your boiler, air conditioning unit or heat pump.
• The existing wiring in the wall: some thermostats need a permanent power supply.
• Wi-Fi coverage where the thermostat will go.
• In buildings with central heating, what each home is allowed to control.
