It's a nice idea from a practical point of view, but careful thought should be given to where the thermostat is located for it to work properly. Generally if the thermostat is located in a good position there shouldn't be a requirement to change the setting very often. Here is a brief guide to selecting a good thermostat location:
The room thermostat should be in a room that is not effected by other sources of heat such as an open fire, cooking equipment, or direct sunlight etc. It should not be somewhere draughty or too close to a window, especially if it's one that is opened in the winter.
The room thermostat should be located in a cool room, ideally the last room in the property to warm up. That way the other rooms will be warm enough, (overheating will be prevented by TRV’s) before the room thermostat switches the entire heating system off.
At least one radiator in the room where the thermostat is installed should not have a TRV fitted. Otherwise the TRV may interfere with the operation of the room thermostat and prevent it from working properly.
The thermostat should be mounted about 1.5 metres from the floor, and not close to, or above a radiator.
Preferably it should not be on an outside wall, (although if you have well insulated walls, this is not quite so crucial.)
It should be in an area where air can circulate easily, not in a corner, or hidden behind curtains, or furniture.
Some thermostats can be remotely controlled. (e.g. Hive, Nest, Tado etc.,) This allows them to be located in the best position and then accessed remotely via an app.
