Zone heating controls benefits

Zone heating controls or multi-zone heating allow you to individually control multiple areas in your house, means separating your home’s heating into separate ‘zones’ which will allow occupiers to heat only specific radiators, areas, or zone only when it is needed.

Best zoned electric heating

Zone Heating allow you to control the temperate in each room without needing to fire up the whole system, this enables homeowners to keep the thermostat with low background mode in the majority of the home, while enjoying a comfortable temperature in the rooms occupied most. The best zonal heating controls prevent your home from getting warmer than necessary, allow you to turn the heating on until the room reaches the desired temperature you have set (normally around 21°C), and then eco background (normally around 15°C) until the temperature drops. Every Creative radiator has a built-in precise temperature sensor with an ECO mode, which automatically adjusts based on the ambient temperature – so you’ll never spend more money than you need to. 

Zoning your heating is a perfect solution If you work from home and like to avoid running the entire central heating all day, when all you need during the day is your home office room to be nice and warm. It is in those such areas as home offices that are important when considering zoning as you almost never use these areas at the same time as you use the rest of the house (Why heat all your bedrooms when you are not using them). The built-in effective thermostat regulates the SETPOINT temperature of the room helping to maintain the perfect level of heat at 21.5°C and it will switch off when the desired comfort temperature is reached, and you can also chose different modes: Auto, Boost, Comfort, Eco, Frost protection or Holiday

Another energy saving feature build-in our designer radiators is the Open window detection sensor, in the event you accidentally leave a door or window open the radiator switches to eco mode until it detects a rise in temperature, saving on your energy bills.

Room-to-room heating control

Allows you to control your heating room-to-room with our multi-room heating control systems, Compare temperatures and setpoints across all zones in the daily, weekly and monthly views, allowing you to further personalise your Wiser system based on the data and maximise your efficiency.

Your room thermostat should be set to the lowest comfortable temperature, which for most is between 18°C and 21°C. If you only have a single room thermostat for the whole house, for every degree you increase the temperature, it will increase the heating bill by about 15%.

In the multi story houses or buildings scenarios, the heating zone control system of Wifi radiator thermostat in the first floor and second floor can be connected by the App, each radiator is able to control the temperature separately, this allows the heating to be programmed to suit the use of the room and the lifestyle of the occupants.

Our programmable wall mounted thermostat combines time and temperature controls in a single unit and allows you to set different temperatures for different slots times of the day or the week, Every wall mounted thermostat can control each individual electric radiator or several electric radiators with in- built features to minimise energy waste.

In larger homes, a room may be worth heating individually, if you mainly use your living room and office during the day, should you have the central heating on to just heat those two rooms? Use your 35 KW central heating boiler just to heat one room individually is not a very cost effective way to heat. Heating one or two room will offer you a great reduction on your energy bills.

Being reliable, well-designed and easy to install and easy to use, you could get it set up the entire home in half an hour and it won’t require you to call out an engineer.

Legislation part L 1 and 2 requires all new buildings in England and Wales to produce 31% less CO2 emissions on the current SAP model to meet full compliance.

Zone control does this for you automatically by having separate heating program, each with their own time programme, for different parts of the house, you’ll enjoy more energy savings and better convenience by programming correctly every smart radiator thermostats to every room for zoned heating control.By installing and using your heating controls effectively, you could save money on your heating bills and lower your carbon emissions.
