The wires on the transformer are 75 inches long which was not long enough for my purposes but i easily extended them with some spare wire i had lying around

It definitely takes a bit of diy effort especially if you want to run the wires behind your drywall but it is not difficult if you know what you are doing

To confirm that the setup worked i hooked everything together and connected the relay leads to a multimeter to see that the circuit was closed when the heat was activated
