What is a Wired Room Thermostat?

A Wired Room Thermostat measures the temperature of your home, keeps your home at the temperature you set, and allows you to turn your heating/cooling unit on or off whenever you want.

Wired Room Thermostats are connected to the heating/cooling unit with a cable. Therefore, a cable connection must be made between the heating/cooling unit and the Wired Room Thermostat up to the area where you will place the Wired Room Thermostat.

Heating/cooling units are indexed to heat/cool the water in the installation due to their working principle. In a scenario where your heating/cooling unit is a boiler and is set to 50°C, your boiler runs until it brings the water circulating in the installation to 50°C, regardless of the temperature of your home, and stops when it reaches 50°C. Although everything seems normal here, this system causes your monthly bills to be about 35% higher.

When the Room Thermostat is used, your boiler still operates at 50°C, but when your home reaches the desired temperature, the Room Thermostat turns off your boiler regardless of the temperature of the circulating water and prevents your boiler from running unnecessarily.

The savings rate with the Room Thermostat varies according to personal use. For maximum savings with your Room Thermostat, it is recommended to keep the room temperature at 22°C during the day and 18°C at night. A 1°C temperature difference affects your bills by 8%. – Factors such as sun and insulation affect the temperature of your home. By using the Room Thermostat, you can make your heating/cooling unit run less when your home is exposed to sunlight. – By keeping the temperature of your home constant at 22°C during the day, you will not spend unnecessary fuel and you can prevent energy loss due to the heating of the walls. – By setting your room thermostat to 18°C during sleeping hours, you can have a healthy sleep and save money. – By decreasing the temperature of your home when you are out, you can prevent unnecessary energy consumption and spend less energy when you want to reheat your home.

You can place your Room Thermostat in a room that you use frequently in your living space, such as a living room. Avoid installing it in places where there is a lot of air circulation, such as doorways or windowsills. Also, do not place it close to heating/cooling units ( radiator, air conditioner, etc.), and do not place it in direct sunlight. We recommend that the Room Thermostat should be placed at a height of 150 cm from the floor. You can try several places to find where you can place the Room Thermostat.

If one of the sun or snow symbols is blinking on the display of your Room Thermostat, it means that your Room Thermostat is running the heating/cooling unit.

You can use your Room Thermostat in heating mode with boilers and similar heating units whereas you can use it in both heating and cooling mode with heat pumps.

You can automatically change the temperature of your home at the times you specify with the daily and weekly schedules you set in Room Thermostats with program mode.

You can use your Room Thermostat with Manual mode by manually setting it to the desired temperature without the need for any mode.

Room Thermostat models with touch buttons have a key lock to prevent unintentional touches. In order to unlock the key lock, you need to press and hold the key specified in the user manual of your Room Thermostat.
  • Measurement accuracy is the temperature value measured by the Room Thermostat and this value is 0.1oC in all room thermostat models.
  • The operating sensitivity is the temperature difference by how many degrees the Room Thermostat will turn the heating/cooling unit on and off. This value can be adjusted between -2.0oC and 2.0oC in Room Thermostats with hysteresis setting. The factory setting is 0.5oC.

– TPI Room Thermostats calculate and implement the operating sensitivity required for heating or cooling the environment using minimum energy.

The sensors used in Room Thermostats are very sensitive. If you want to take the temperature of the thermometers in your living space as a reference, you need to calibrate your Room Thermostat. Temperature calibration setting can be made between -8 and +8 C. The recommended temperature calibration setting is 0.0oC. Refer to the user manual of your Room Thermostat to set the temperature calibration setting.

When the “LB” warning appears on the display of your Room Thermostat, it means “low battery warning”. It is recommended to replace the batteries when this warning appears.

TPI technology is designed to ensure you get the best possible energy efficiency from your heating/cooling system. It measures and applies the best possible timings to reach and maintain the set temperature in your home.

Thanks to advanced TPI artificial intelligence technology, your Room Thermostat adapts to the temperature change of its environment. By creating a general temperature map of your home, it learns when the desired room temperature is reached and how this temperature is maintained.

Based on this information, it calculates how long your heating/cooling unit should run and provides higher savings and comfort compared to On/Off Room Thermostats.

Room Thermostats with TPI technology predict when the temperature of your home will increase above or decrease below the set temperature and turn the heating unit on and off accordingly. This ensures that your home stays at the set temperature with minimal deviations up and down.

Thanks to the advanced artificial intelligence technology in the product software, it adapts to the temperature change of its environment. By creating a general temperature map of your home, it learns how long it takes to reach the desired room temperature and how this temperature is maintained. Thus, it provides minimum energy consumption by calculating how long your heating/cooling unit should run.

In the room thermostats without TPI, the heating/cooling unit runs continuously until it exceeds the set temperature value and stops. When it drops below the set temperature by a certain amount, the heating/cooling unit starts again. This creates larger temperature fluctuations and less energy control.

TPI Room Thermostats, on the other hand, provide higher savings and comfort with its advantages compared to On/Off Room Thermostats.

  • If the placement of TPI Room Thermostats is changed, the learning process will start again. The learning process should be considered as 7 days.
  • If TPI Room Thermostats are de-energized (battery replacement), the learning process will start again. The learning process should be evaluated as 7 days.
  • Hysteresis setting means operating sensitivity setting. The Room Thermostat turns the heating/cooling unit on or off according to hysteresis positive and hysteresis negative values.
  • In Room Thermostats with hysteresis setting, the operating sensitivity setting can be adjusted between -2.0oC and 2.0oC degrees.
  • Hysteresis positive and negative values can be set as separate temperatures.
