Connected Radiators: More Comfort, Less Energy!

Today, connected radiators have become more democratic. Bulbs, thermostats, presence or door opening detectors… they concern all areas of the home and allow us to configure our homes intelligently. The key to this remote control and these programming options, an easier, more serene and more comfortable life, and above all energy savings!

Why Connected Radiators?

Thanks to remote control, the connectivity of our devices makes life easier and saves precious time. Did you know that by connecting your various devices, you can, even when you are not at home, turn the light on or off to simulate a presence, unlock a lock to open to your guests, start watering automatic, but also heat your house to find it at the ideal temperature when you arrive?

Another advantage of these connected objects: programming. Indeed, you can set up extremely practical scenarios to program lighting moments to simulate a presence when you are not there, back to automatically open and close the windows if you want to ventilate or find your holiday home in the ideal temperature when you arrive for the weekend.

Connected Radiators: For Good Temperature Management

This choice of comfort and energy saving notably involves the choice of its radiators. Did you know that, according to studies, 90% of the ecological footprint of a “classic” radiator comes not from its manufacture, but from its use? Often lit continuously, sometimes even during our absence, the radiator is a big consumer of energy.

Whereas with connected, more responsible and intelligent radiators, you only heat when necessary, and at the ideal temperature depending on the room. Optimal comfort and energy savings, connected radiators will have a positive impact both on your electricity bills and on the planet.

The Advantages Of Connected Radiators

Connected radiators allow you to program scenarios very precisely in advance, depending on your lifestyle. You can thus determine different temperatures according to your absence or your presence. The best solution not to heat an empty house when it is not necessary and to find it at the ideal temperature when you return. In addition, while we need to lower the temperature at night to sleep better, connected radiators allow to gradually lower the temperature for a peaceful sleep, before gradually increasing the heating and thus have a comfortable interior in the early morning.
