In most homes, heating is the area that consumes the most energy, yet it is often neglected. Even a small change can mean up to a 27% saving. That small change is zone heating control. You get these benefits:
- savings on heating up to 27%
- reduction of temperature differences in large and small rooms
- the ability to set different temperatures for different rooms
- the ability to control heating remotely via a smartphone, tablet, or computer
- consumption measurement for electric underfloor heating
- linking heating to other areas of the Smart Home, such as shading or ventilation
Think about how efficient your heating is. How many times do you heat rooms where it is not necessary, or heat the house even when you are not there? How easy is it for you to heat only the bedroom?
When is Smart zone heating control worth it?
It is worth thinking about zone heating control with practically any type of heating. The most important signs that you need zone heating control are:
- You control the heating based on one central thermostat.
- You cannot heat just one room independently of the rest of the house.
- You have large temperature differences in rooms.
- You heat even when ventilating.
- Your temperature regulation is inaccurate despite weather compensation.
- You cannot control the heating remotely.
How does zone heating control work?
Zone heating control allows you to simply set what temperature should be in which room and when. You do not have to take into account any other room in the house, as in the zone heating control system, each individual zone can turn on the boiler when it needs to.
On the other hand, rooms that are sufficiently heated at the given time will not be heated, as these rooms will be closed off. This means that in order to heat only the bedroom, for example, the boiler needs to heat only a small percentage of the water compared to classic regulation.
If you use schedules for heating, you can always have exactly the temperature you need where you want it.
And what about Smart zone heating control?
The word Smart is used here intentionally. Such heating control can take various other aspects into account. Today, heating no longer has to be governed only by a standard schedule as it used to be. We can describe "Smart" using a few simple examples:
- If you are not at home, the heating automatically switches to economy mode.
- If you open a window, the heating in that room automatically turns off for a certain time.
- If you are heading home from a ski trip, you can turn on the heating on the way and arrive at a cozy home.
- If it is warm outside, the house is being heated, and the blinds are drawn, the blinds can automatically open.
Installation of Smart zone heating control
And now the excellent news. Smart zone heating control is truly accessible today and can be installed even in existing houses, apartments, as well as hotels and commercial spaces. Thanks to our years of experience, we can prepare the system so that the installation is clean and, in most cases, without the need for any structural modifications. At the same time, it is possible to regulate any commonly used type of heating.
How to control the heating
You don't have to worry at all; controlling the heating remains just as simple as with classic heating. Simply change the temperature on the radiator or room thermostat and you're done. However, you additionally have the option to set the heating using a schedule on a computer or via a mobile phone from anywhere.
