Can anyone recommend a wireless relay to trigger an oil boiler. Currently there is a huge buffer tank which is heated by a log fired biomass. The boiler is being replaced with an oil boiler, but the buffer tank is staying, as the tank was installed during a renovation which means the tank would need cut up. Getting additional cables to the boiler isn’t an option, so I need a wireless relay that will trigger the boiler via a cylinder thermostat. I know Danfoss make a wireless cylinder stat, but the buffer tank won’t allow the fitting of a strap on stat, so I need to fit a stat inside a pocket. Any recommendations?? Ta
 
Wireless technology is used in every niche of the industry but you need to expand on detail here, distance, obstacles like walls etc what they are constructed of... some more info much appreciated ---

You’re right, I forgot to mention that! Distance isn’t really an issue. The boiler will be about 4-5 metres away. One external wall, constructed of sandstone if I remember correctly, about a metre thick??? The buffer tank is in a cupboard constructed of hypericum. It’s pretty much a direct line from the cylinder cupboard to the external boiler. Hope this helps?

Why is the biomass boiler being replaced with an oil boiler? Keeping the buffer tank seems wasteful!
Because it’s been very poorly installed. An biomass designed for inside a boiler house that’s been installed outside. Plus the lady is getting on a bit and doesn’t want the hassle of it anymore!
The buffer is staying because it’s too muck of a fire risk to cut it up, not to mention it would be a nightmare to remove it.
