with almost every flooring material contributing to a comfortable living space overall. So, in the case of underfloor heating the term efficiency applies to both system performance and space efficiency.


FLEXIBLE ZONING OPTIONS


nderfloor heating systems must now have zoning capabilities to comply with the art L lowtemperature update to the Building Regulations. Standard thermostats meet the regulations


but commonly only offer a single temperature setting for a whole property, missing out on the energysaving benefits of oning which many smart thermostats are designed to work with. Zoning allows the end user to create distinct temperatures for each space, each with personalised settings that can be altered and monitored from the thermostat or smartphone. This allows the end user to create the right level of comfort in each spacefor eample warmer in the living area and cooler in the kitchen, where heat is already produced from cooking activities. It also ensures that vacant zones aren’t heated unnecessarily helping to save significant energy, especially for larger properties. Adaptive Start functionality is another smart feature in more advanced devices. It can work with the local weather forecast to activate the heating at just the right time based on eternal weather conditions. his is another ecellent eample of how thermal comfort can be delivered by specifying some of the innovative energysaving features of smart thermostats.
