WIN a British Gas Hive Active Heating System worth £199

by 181 Comments

Welcome to my first giveaway of the year, and I’m thrilled to say it’s a fabulous one.

Courtesy of British Gas, I have one Hive Active Heating system to give away worth £199.

Hive is an innovative new system that allows you to control your heating and hot water from an app on your smartphone, tablet or pc. And you don’t need to be a British Gas customer to have one; they are available to anyone.

Working with your existing heating system, Hive allows you to manage how your heating is used, wherever you are. At this time of year, when it’s extremely cold outside, there’s so much temptation to have the heating on constantly. After all, no-one wants to come home to a chilly house at the end of the day. Using the Hive system, you are able to switch the heating on and off, and increase or decrease the temperature with one or two easy swipes on the app. This amazing system gives you the opportunity to save up to £150 per year on your heating bill.

I’m a big fan of this system, and love the look of the components as well as the ease of use. You can see a full review of Hive, over on The Ana Mum Diary too. It comprises of 3 parts, a hub, a receiver and a wireless thermostat, and is installed by a British Gas engineer for a one off cost of £199. All this will be included in the prize.

Key Features:

  1. Automatic Frost Protection
  2. Temperature graph of your home’s temperature over time
  3. Temperature alerts
  4. SMS Control, send a message to the system by text
  5. Hot Water Boost

Who wouldn’t want to save money on their heating bills? Hive Active Heating is a great way to give you better control over how you use your central heating, is fun and straightforward to use, and is a beautifully designed addition to your household management.
