Lightwave has announced a new element to its Connect family of wireless ‘Smart Home’ products, enabling accurate monitoring and control of domestic heating systems using a Smartphone, Tablet or PC. In Lightwave’s view, this development represents a ‘world first’, as competitive systems cannot yet offer monitoring and control down to room and individual radiator level.
The system allows users to set up, monitor and control boiler on/off times, individual room temperatures and even the temperature of ‘zones’ throughout the house, from anywhere in the world, using the Internet. It is the company’s belief that this system will enable home owners to maximise heating efficiency and save on heating costs.
