Hi is there a zigbee/zwave thermostat that I can use to set temps locally and also directly connect to Hubitat ? I'd prefer zigbee as my network is vast but I'll take z wave ? I'm just struggling a bit as I've so far used temp sonoff temp sensors but the wife is complaining she can't just go to the wall an change it half a degree! Thanks in advance , I've had a look into it but haven't really got anywhere, I have hive at home but that doesn't directly connect unless somethings changed in the last 2 months
Based on your TZ, I suspect you’re in Europe/Ireland/UK. So I’ll reserve making any suggestions until you indicate what kind of HVAC system you’ll be controlling and what the current thermostat is.

I've used two types of thermostat for heating so far. I had a combi boiler in my old house so I used a devolo / danfoss rsz battery powered (wireless) z wave room sensor that turned the heating on and off via a danfoss RXZ relay and I set the times / temps using the hubitat thermostat app, but the temp was easily adjustable on the rsz if needed. It was easy to install as the previous control was already wireless so it really was just a straight swap of the control relay.
In my new house I have a more traditional system comprising of a system bolier with 3 zone valves for separate control of radiator heating / uf heating and hot water so I now use two wired in 'Mco home' Z-wave thermostats for the rads and uf heating and then a qubino thermostat module for the hot water, again all 3 are controlled by the hubitat themostat programmer app with the two heating thermostats being adjustable on the wall.
I have been happy with Zen thermostats. I'm in the US and have forced air HVAC.
