The Smart Home control system is a programmed algorithm that controls the operation of devices, which performs functions artificial intelligence and is able to simultaneously control many separate and/or interrelated processes.

Smart House control supports many automatic and remote control options:

• control through a convenient, intuitive interface of control panels;
• control using remote controls remote control;
• automatic control of equipment based on the operation of sensors, switches and the entered program;
• smart home control from iPad, iPhone and other similar devices;
• control home systems from your phone via SMS;
• control via tablet and computer.

The smart home control controller is designed and created in such a way that interaction with the system is as convenient and understandable as possible, and issuing commands to the equipment is as accurate as possible.

The smart home system combines a complex of engineering networks, intelligent subsystems, household appliances and other things. Control capabilities allow you to control all household processes at home, from lighting and heating, to sewerage, garden watering, security and more. Using such a system, a complete feeling is created that the house understands its owners, waits for their return and takes most of the troubles upon itself.

You can buy GSM smart home control and equipment to perform other functions both at the stage of completing the system and during its use, since the equipment is compatible and can be mutually complemented.

We are ready to provide basic solutions or carry out individual development of a home control system.

Control methods

You can control your home from your phone in two ways:

• via an application on a smartphone - Internet access is required for the gadget and at home;
• via a GSM channel - a GSM module is additionally installed into the smart home system.

The first method is practical and modern. The screen of your smartphone displays up-to-date status information:

• perimeter and security systems;
• intra-house systems - heating, ventilation, water supply, air conditioning, humidification, control of light and sockets;
• security groups - fire alarm, water, gas, smoke leakage sensors;
• other systems.

A smart home from a smartphone also means easy adjustment of parameters and operating scenarios to suit your needs and lifestyle. Business trip or delay at work? One click, and your home stops executing previously prescribed scenarios, the heating goes into economical mode, and control scenarios for lights, gates, and defrosters are canceled.

Information and commands are exchanged between the phone and home via SMS or voice call. But this The best decision for places where Internet outages occur.

Smart home technology today is amazing. Developers offer dozens of solutions that are based on different standards, are mostly incompatible with each other, and in most cases cause installation difficulties. Moreover, when programming this supposedly smart technology rather, she demonstrates her lack of understanding: she stubbornly follows the established rules and has difficulty accepting any exceptions to them.

However, a lot can change now. Some start-up companies have gone public in recent months home automation solutions that not only overcome the boundaries between established standards, but also attach importance to ease of use. In addition, such modern approaches as remote access via the Internet or via a smartphone application.

Home control systems test

IN Lately CHIP specialists tested three similar solutions: and ( complete home control systems), and ( as a solution for home heating control). They have not yet reached Russia, but they may well work on the territory of the Russian Federation, except that they will have to be purchased in Europe.

All data was collected by the international testing laboratory CHIP. For seven months, our specialists conducted a thorough check of the operation of systems for creating a smart home in apartment conditions and came to certain conclusions.

Almost from day one, home control systems can help you save money, especially when used to control your home's heating. Detailed tests of three advanced systems from, and you can read on our website. We looked at all the pros and cons of automation packages, and also calculated how quickly they will pay for themselves.

Alternative systems

In addition to advanced European systems, we paid attention to other equally interesting automation systems. HomeMatic, for example, is fully adapted for the Russian market, and RWE is easy to install and manage.

	HomeMatic The most inexpensive and comprehensive system with its own (and independently developed) protocol wireless communication. Programming and networking of components is relatively complex in today's environment. Website: homematic.ru
	RWE Smart Home You don’t have to be a client of this energy concern to be able to use the smart home system. Like Qivicon, this system focuses on ease of installation and management at affordable prices. Website: rwe-smarthome.de
	Belkin WeMo A smart home system that, through wireless network communicates with a smartphone. It is possible to connect various devices to the network. The main emphasis of the program is on energy saving and safety.

The capabilities of devices for remote heating control are becoming more and more advanced every year (and what about the year - almost every month!). Developers of smartphone applications try to make them easy to use and easy to understand, even for untrained people. Let us briefly list only the main capabilities of such systems that support:

• normal operating mode, when the set temperature is maintained throughout the house;
• zonal mode, when different rooms can have individual temperatures;
• preventing defrosting of the heating system (freezing of pipes) during the cold season, when you are away from your country house or dacha;
• the ability to turn on the boiler in advance, for example, you need to warm up a country house when you plan to visit it on weekends or holidays;
• always be aware of the operation of your autonomous heating and, if necessary, carry out diagnostics;
• temporary mode, in which at different times during the day the house can maintain its own thermal regime with a significant reduction in material costs for fuel, for example, you can set the boiler to low power (and, accordingly, low fuel consumption) when going to work or on business, and turn on normal mode before returning.

Remote heating control means that any of these modes, as well as specific room temperature values, are changed using mobile communications, or the heating is controlled via the Internet.
This approach is part of the ideology of creating a “smart home”, which entails the further development of all engineering systems of the house in order to ensure ease of use and create the most comfortable living conditions.

Which heating system can be controlled remotely?

In country houses and cottages, two-pipe systems with forced circulation of coolant are currently most often used: a circulation pump pumps coolant throughout the heating system, which, thanks to a distributor comb, can be supplied to each heating device.
In such systems, as a rule, a safety block of the heating system is used to protect it from destruction in unforeseen situations, for example, in the event of an increase in pressure above the permissible level.
It is also necessary to have additional equipment to control the operation of the heating system: sensors, special valves and devices for adjusting coolant flow, and also a combination various devices to the information network

Weather-compensated heating control

Today it is considered the most promising. In such systems, in addition to the room temperature sensor, an external air temperature meter is also used. In principle, a weather-dependent heating controller will work with one external sensor, but using two allows you to achieve more accurate mode maintenance and even implement self-adaptation of the system to specific temperature changes: if it gets colder outside, then the temperature of the coolant in the system increases in advance, if it gets warmer - then it decreases in advance. In addition to saving fuel, this reduces the inertia of the system, which increases its efficiency and also provides additional cost reduction. One of the basic points of weather-sensitive heating control can be used at a temperature of plus twenty degrees - at which the coolant temperature is taken equal to the ambient temperature, and the heating is actually turned off. It is also necessary to take into account zonal temperature control, i.e. if, for example, there is a gathering in one of the rooms a large number of people, due to which it has become hotter, then the system detects a local increase in temperature relative to the one set by the weather heating regulator, and makes corrections in this zone.
In general, serious battles broke out on the Internet about - Is it worth using weather-sensitive automation at all or is it money thrown away? In short, the opinion of our specialists, confirmed, by the way, by reviews from numerous clients, is unequivocal - yes, it’s worth it, but not in all cases. And in which ones? Answer

Types of remote heating control systems

There are currently two systems in use for remote heating control:

• using a set of equipment with an Internet gateway. Availability Wi-Fi router and the Internet is a must in this case.
• using a GSM heating control module. A special GSM module with a cellular operator SIM card is required.

Remote control of the boiler room using mobile GSM

What if wired internet not in a country house? How can you control the heating in this case?

Yes, very simply - using a special GSM module and, of course, mobile phone. In fact, the GSM module plays the role of your personal assistant - you called it, gave a command, for example, to heat it hotter by a certain time in advance - and the whole family will arrive in a warm and cozy home. Or, on the contrary, you forgot to turn down the boiler power in the morning when leaving for work - no question, you can do it right from work, via the Internet or directly from your smartphone while you are still getting to work.
A GSM module is a compact device with its own SIM card from any operator (it is important that it provides reliable signal reception in a given area), allowing you to control the indoor climate from any phone (satellite, mobile or fixed line), tablet or PC.

The undisputed leader in the GSM thermostat market is currently Russian company MicroLine company. The company produces a wide range of GSM modules for remote control of heating boilers, including multifunctional controllers that provide control of the most complex heating systems.
You can buy it in the appropriate section on our website. GSM heating control

Depending on the settings made, your phone will receive short SMS notifications with various information and instructions for changing the settings of the heating boiler, or proceed phone calls with various information about the operation of the heating system. A special one is installed on the phone mobile app(there are versions for Android, iOS, and Windows Phone), allowing direct remote control of almost all operating parameters of the heating boiler.
A GSM heating control module is essentially a computer connected to external sensors and has the ability to change the operating modes of the heating system. Naturally, the module must be located in the area of ​​reliable reception of mobile operators.

The GSM heating control module can operate in several modes:

• automatic, when, based on signals from installed sensors, the controller supports specified modes according to a given program;
• SMS heating control, when the heating system is controlled by sending SMS. In this case, when new data arrives, for example about room temperature, the controller accepts it for execution and begins to support it automatically;
• warning, by sending alarm messages about the current condition of the house (gas leak, break in the water supply system, etc.);
• remote control of other devices connected to the GSM module (watering, lighting, alarm, etc.).

GSM – heating control allows you to remotely:

• receive room temperature reports;
• receive notifications about the current state of heating equipment;
• change the operating mode of the system, increasing or decreasing the temperature, including separately in each room.

Heating control is not limited to these functions. In principle, any heating system can be converted into a remote one. To do this, it must have an automatic operating mode, and a special GSM controller must be connected to it to control the heating and communicate with the subscriber.

Is this not enough for you? Then look at the capabilities of multifunctional GSM controllers, for example: ZONT H-1000 or ZONT H-2000 The devices are complex and require professional knowledge during installation and configuration, so installation requires only highly qualified specialists - contact our company, we have them!

Remote control of the boiler using a set of equipment with an Internet gateway

Now consider the option remote control heating, if the country house or dacha has the Internet and, of course, a Wi-Fi router (also known as a router).
Everything is much simpler here - you can look at the capabilities of the devices proposed below and forever forget about worries about the state of the heating system of your home.

Salus IT500 provides control and adjustment of operating parameters in a maximum of two heating zones, for example, in the 1st room on the first floor of the cottage and the shower room on the second floor.
The kit includes an actuator (boiler receiver), a room 2-channel thermostat (weekly boiler programmer, boiler control panel) and an Internet gateway connected to the Internet router (router).

Possibilities for controlling the heating system using a set of equipment with the Salus iT500 Internet gateway:

• control of heating modes only (boiler and, if necessary, pump);
• control of multiple heating zones;
• control of heating and hot water supply of a country house.
• maintaining different temperatures in different rooms, schedule temperature conditions by days, hours and minutes
• 6 preset heating modes on delivery
• hot water heating control, automatic modes controls, including energy-saving and vacation mode.
• a unique system for connecting devices via the Internet, providing reliable connection and control of the heating system: smartphone (or Personal Computer) -> Internet server -> router (router) -> thermostat -> receiver -> boiler

All equipment is wireless and communicates with each other via a radio channel, i.e. There is no need for electrical wiring. The room thermostat for the heating boiler is programmed for daily, weekly or 5+2 operating modes. The thermostat screen and applications for remote heating control display the current state of the boiler, the current temperature and the set one. Setting the operating schedule can be done from the thermostat panel, through an Internet browser or using a mobile application.
The thermostat has a modern design and is highly reliable and safe to use.
Using additional Salus Controls equipment, it is possible to control, including remotely, heated floors, gas and electric boilers, oil heating systems, as well as almost any other heating systems and devices.
Remote management does not require a dedicated external IP address, the entire system works perfectly on any mobile internet(Yota, Megafon, Beeline, etc.), it is also possible to control from computers and mobile devices on operating systems Android and iOS.

What to do if there is no wired Internet in the house, but you have already purchased Wi-Fi internet thermostat?

Most likely, the dacha has coverage from mobile operators, isn’t it? So you also have the Internet! Just buy Wi-Fi router With USB port and in addition to it a 3G or 4G modem. Install a SIM card of any type into the modem mobile operator, providing a reliable signal in the area where your home is located. You insert the modem itself into the USB connector of the router and that’s it - now you have the opportunity to control the heating of your dacha remotely!

If the iT500 seems a little expensive for some, the company offers a more budget-friendly solution - an Internet thermostat Salus RT310i
The thermostat has somewhat reduced capabilities compared to its “big brother”, but may turn out to be a worthy replacement for it, thanks to the lower price of the kit. Externally, the RT310i looks more modest compared to the premium high-tech design of the iT500; it lacks touch control, however, the models are almost identical in functionality. Except that while the iT 500 is capable of controlling 2 zones of heating or cooling, the RT310i can only control one zone.

Missing the iT500's features? No problem - Salus iT600 can do everything and more!

If you do not have enough iT500 functionality to control only two heating zones, then a more functional one is presented on our website multi-zone(there is wired and wireless version) system Salus iT 600 Smart Home. Indeed, its capabilities for remote heating control (and more!) are enough for even the most demanding consumer!

Remote control of complex heating systems

The Polish company Tech Controllers, which produces a wide range of controllers with remote control capabilities, is gaining an increasingly large share in this market segment.
The Tech controllers themselves are multifunctional devices, which are the main, basic part of the system, which can remotely control almost any complex heating systems using additional modules. There are a lot of possibilities, so using an example we will only consider the possibilities for remote control.

Example of installation of Tech Controllers equipment

In the photo used for installation:
1. Controller Tech ST-409n- a multifunctional device designed to control a central heating system, providing:

ability to control two additional valves using additional modules ST-61v4 or ST-431 N
Ability to control additional equipment, such as garage doors, lighting or sprinklers, etc.

Can be used for remote control various modules Tech, it all depends on the specific needs of the owner. For example:

What to do if the heating system is so individual that none of the above solutions can fully meet the owner’s control needs?
There are no hopeless situations! Most often, the customer himself simply does not understand (and should not!) all the possibilities modern systems remote heating control. It is really difficult for an untrained person to understand all this abundance of devices offered on the market, which are completely different from each other in functionality, price, and, of course, quality. And installers, often, simply have no idea about the capabilities of controlling heating systems - their task is to install the system, but they don’t care how often you run around the house (or to the boiler room) and turn various valves to ensure constant thermal comfort . Our specialists have more than once had to almost completely remake the “creations” of such craftsmen, and this, believe me, costs a lot of money. The stingy pays twice...
