What is a smart thermostat?

These days, many people are using a smart thermostat. But what is it exactly?

With a smart thermostat, you have the ability to control your central heating boiler remotely, for example, via an app on your smartphone. Most systems are compatible with platforms such as Alexa and Google Assistant. There are systems that work with a GPS function, so your thermostat knows when you are nearby and it can start working.

Advantage?

A smart thermostat can ensure that you do not overheat. If, for example, you are not at home, there is little point in having the heating running at full speed. You can perfectly adapt the system to your living rhythm. You can set when the heating can be lowered or raised at certain times of the day. Did you leave home and forget to turn the heating down? No problem, you can adjust it remotely!

The system also offers financial benefits, since you will be much more conscious of whether or not you are heating. In addition, it is also better for the climate, because you only use something when it is really necessary. If you use the thermostat smartly, of course!
