Old Thermostats

Hi All! We moved into an apartment (early 2000s build) and it's got what i imagine is early version under floor heating. The thermostats are the twist dial, but they aren't that accurate or response i.e. I can't set the temp it comes on at and it generally thinks the flat is warmer than it is i.e. I have to turn it to 25+…

Hi All!

We moved into an apartment (early 2000s build) and it's got what i imagine is early version under floor heating.

The thermostats are the twist dial, but they aren't that accurate or response i.e. I can't set the temp it comes on at and it generally thinks the flat is warmer than it is i.e. I have to turn it to 25+ before it comes on.

Question - Would it be worth replacing the thermostats to something digital? In terms of responsiveness and energy efficiency?

The boiler had to be replaced when we moved in, so i presume it's relatively modern.
