Hello all. I was after some advice about installing a Hive to replace a Drayton LP522/DigistatSCR controlling a Vaillant Ecotech Plus 630.

Do I need to make any changes or add any links to get this...

I see a lot of people on eBay selling only the receiver for their Hive Active Heating without the thermostat. Assuming I have the hub, does this actually work? Can the heating be controlled with the phone app alone? What happens if e.g. the thermostat breaks or runs out of batteries?
Sorry, I really have spent about an hour looking online for the answer and just can't find anything.
Boiler = Worcester Greenstar 28i (dial/timer in the middle)
Old thermostat = Siemens Landis & Staefa RA02
New Thermostat = Hive single chanel active heating.
The old thermostat is in another...
