"Smart" and economical system: why it is profitable to install an electric thermostat for heating batteries

A thermostat is a device that can automatically regulate the temperature regime in heating and cooling equipment.

Regulators were originally produced as devices that would allow reduce resource consumption and expenses for paying utility bills.

Today thermostats are in demand when creating systems that maintain a certain temperature regime.

What is an electronic thermostat?

A thermostat is a small device, equipped with a temperature sensor and a processor.

The sensor readings allow control the flow of coolant, and the specified program maintains a certain temperature or operating mode in the room.

Electronic thermostat is enough easy to operate, But requires a constant power source. With the help of thermostats it is possible cut costs for heating by 20-30%. Special modes that allow you to lower the temperature during the day and at night, and raise it to a comfortable level in the morning and evening will ensure the creation of a pleasant atmosphere in the room.

Important! Modern thermostats can be controlled remotely using remote control or special program for smartphone.

Device functions

  • The thermostat can lower the temperature by 5 degrees, which ensures significant savings in resources.
  • Ensuring security operation of the system. When a breakdown is detected, the equipment emits sound signals.
  • The absence of manual control ensures autonomy and comfort of adjustment temperature.

Types of electric thermostats for heating batteries

Thermostats easy to operate, as they have many options for extremely precise adjustment of devices to specific temperature readings.

In certain areas the equipment can support complex work algorithms, which will ensure the most comfortable stay in the room.

Open logic thermostats

Devices control the exact temperature in the room and have advanced settings, which allow you to adjust the device's algorithms. Usually, control is carried out using the touch panel or buttonsReprogramming should only be performed by a certified technician. Price on such devices quite high and they are usually used in industry or manufacturing.

With closed logic

Closed logic thermostats cannot be adjusted and has a set algorithm of actions that is followed throughout the entire period of operation. Regulation is carried out by transmitting commands to specific devices, previously installed in the room. Thermostats with closed logic are popular with users and are most often installed for heating private houses and apartments. The cost of the devices is commensurate with their efficiency, practicality, reliability and durability.

Installation of thermostatic devices for radiators

When installing thermostats, it is important follow the instructions, which is included with the equipment kit.

The temperature sensor is usually mounted directly into the heating system, and its location is determined by the design features of electronic thermostats and the manufacturer’s recommendations.

Control Panel is output separately from the sensor and is often installed near switches or socketsIf you are not sure that the independent installation of the thermostat will be carried out in compliance with all standards, then the installation should be entrusted to professionals.

Ease of creating a unique microclimate

An electronic device will help create an individual atmosphere in the building, which will be comfortable for its residents and guests. Electronic regulators are suitable for creating smart home systems and will be easy to operate. High-quality equipment has long service life, during which it maintains the temperature according to specified algorithms.

    My father from Germany gave me a Danfoss Link thermostat about 7 years ago. It's a cool thing, it allows you to save money, but its downside is that it breaks down quickly. Every 5-7 months it needs to be adjusted, otherwise it shows one temperature, but in fact it's much lower. Previously, such things were unavailable, not to mention their adjustment, but my husband got the hang of it, made a thing from an Android board, connects it and adjusts it from a computer. Now, I think, it's easier to do.

    You can install both electric and mechanical thermostats on the botaria or heating radiators. Mechanical thermostats are cheaper and easier to install, but they have a rough setting. That's why I installed TERNEO electric sensors. Using these thermostats, the required temperature is smoothly adjusted in each room, which allows you to save gas significantly and create the most comfortable temperature in each room.

    I have an electronic thermostat Danfoss living connect (DAN_LC-13), which allows me to regulate the required and comfortable temperature in all rooms. The device itself is quite compact and is powered by batteries, the battery life is two years. With it, you can set three temperature modes during the day. It is quite easy to configure, it has only three control buttons.

    Installing thermostats allows you to reduce gas consumption and create a comfortable temperature in different rooms, the main thing is to choose the right thermostat. I have an electronic thermostat Q-401 for warm floors, which can be used with both water heating and electric warm floors. On other heating elements there is a thermostat TERNEO RZ. Installing thermostats allows you to maintain the temperature, for example, in a children's room 23-24 degrees, in the bathroom it is more comfortable with a temperature of 25-26 degrees. In the other rooms I maintain a temperature of 18-20 degrees, and in the bathroom I raise the temperature to 26 degrees only when taking a bath, the rest of the time 18 degrees.

    When I installed the TERNEO RZ thermostat, gas consumption immediately decreased noticeably, these regulators maintain a set temperature in the room and the boiler no longer stupidly drives hot water into the radiators all the time. This regulator can be adjusted in the range of 0 - 30 degrees. During the day, when everyone leaves the house, you can set a lower temperature, and increase it in the evening, due to this, gas consumption is saved, and the costs of the thermostat quickly pay off.
