Project Overview
The residential community sought to modernize its heating system to provide homeowners with better control over their indoor climate and reduce energy costs. The homeowners association decided to install our Smart WiFi Knob Thermostats, designed specifically for boiler control.
Solution: Smart WiFi Knob Thermostat, Manifold, Actuator for Boiler System
To address the challenges of inefficient heating and high energy consumption, the association implemented our Smart WiFi Knob Thermostat solution across all 100 homes. This thermostat offers intuitive control, WiFi connectivity for remote operation, and advanced scheduling features to maximize energy efficiency.
Challenges Faced
High Energy Costs: The lack of programmable thermostats led to boilers running unnecessarily during unoccupied hours, driving up energy usage.
Limited Control: Homeowners could only manually adjust their boiler settings on-site, making it difficult to optimize heating when away from home.
Inconsistent Heating: Some homes experienced uneven heating due to a lack of temperature zoning or advanced control options.
Key Features of the Solution
WiFi Connectivity: Homeowners can control their heating systems remotely through a smartphone app, allowing adjustments even when they’re not at home.
Knob Control: A simple, easy-to-use knob interface makes temperature adjustments quick and intuitive, appealing to users of all ages.
Energy-Efficient Programming: The thermostat includes programmable schedules with multiple daily events, ensuring the boiler operates only when needed.
Boiler-Specific Design: Optimized for controlling residential boilers, ensuring compatibility and efficient operation.
Smart Modes: Features such as Holiday and ECO modes automatically adjust heating based on occupancy, reducing energy waste.
Implementation Process
Each home in the community was equipped with the Smart WiFi Knob Thermostat, seamlessly connected to the existing boiler systems.
Homeowners were provided with guidance on how to set up and use the smartphone app for remote control and programming.
The thermostats were pre-programmed with energy-efficient schedules to ensure immediate energy savings while allowing customization by the homeowners.
Results
Energy Savings: Within the first three months, homeowners reported an average reduction of 20% in heating costs due to better control and optimized heating schedules.
Remote Control Convenience: Homeowners praised the ability to remotely adjust the temperature from their smartphones, especially while away or returning from vacation.
Improved Comfort: Even heating throughout the homes was achieved, with customizable schedules allowing homeowners to set preferred temperatures based on their daily routines.
User-Friendly Design: The knob design was appreciated by users for its simplicity, making it accessible to all age groups without the complexity of digital displays.
