Our Verdict
Managing home temperature in older houses with gas boilers can often feel clunky, but the Tuya WiFi Battery-Powered Thermostat aims to change that. I spent a week testing this unit to see if its smart features could actually make a daily difference in comfort and energy regulation.
Performance & Build Quality
The device feels surprisingly robust, with a clean aesthetic that blends well into modern wall interiors. Its battery-powered design simplifies installation significantly, as it eliminates the need for complex wiring often required by older mechanical thermostats.
Day-to-Day Experience
Getting the device connected to my local WiFi network via the Smart Life app was a straightforward process that took less than ten minutes. Once set up, the ability to control the boiler via voice commands through Alexa felt incredibly fluid and reliable throughout my testing period.
This is an excellent choice for homeowners looking for a simple, cost-effective way to add smart automation to a traditional gas boiler system.
Final Thoughts
Overall, the Tuya WiFi Thermostat earns its 4.7/5 rating by delivering exactly what it promises without unnecessary complexity. At a price point of $89.00, it is a sensible investment for anyone looking to optimize their home energy usage.
