A true example of smart heating in this renovation project of a detached house in Ballan-Miré (French department Indreet-Loire), 230 m². The house owners, who are passionate about home automation, wanted to control different environments, including heating, which has a significant role in energy consumption. Naturally, they turned to Danfoss for their heating expertise and ease of installation of products on an existing home automation ecosystem. The operation consisted of fitting the 13 radiators with Danfoss Ally™ Radiator Thermostats and connecting them to the JEEDOM gateway.

“I was looking for a solution that was both connected and autonomous, and reliable in terms of its operation and its accuracy. I was convinced by the tests carried out with the Danfoss AllyTM Radiator Thermostat, first of all, for the temperature obtained. In fact, my measurements carried out with a remote sensor areunquestionable: The Radiator Thermostat works with surgical precision (the house is very well insulated, which should also contribute to this).This issue was crucial in my choice, as temperature variations can result in greater energy consumption, as well as being uncomfortable. With such precision, there is no doubt that savings will be made, but above all, comfort will be unparalleled.Secondly, when it comes to reliability, I had no problems with the thermostat used for testing, which gave me confidence in the quality of Danfoss products.In terms of autonomy, it meets my needs perfectly; I can set it directly and it can operate without a smart hub (which is a good back-up if I were to lose my hub).The product is well-suited for me and it will equip the 13 radiators in my house (heated surface area approx. 230 m²) by specifying different room temperatures. This could not be done with the existing system, which only had a thermostat on each floor. This will make management much easier and much moreprecise. Before, we had to play with 5 or 6 radiators to balance temperatures in different areas; some rooms remained colder,others warmer without us really being able to correct them”.Mr & Mrs MartinOwners of the property
