hang people who turn on the heating but wear t-shirts indoors imho. hang their families too if they are wearing shorts

I am wearing a T-shirt and shorts inside, and I have a window open. The heating is off. People need to toughen up a bit imo

Netatmo low power mode is to keep the last state on valves and thermostats so if battery goes off(it will nag forever to replace batteries, via app and email) it might stay open.

Goodbye friend SlowBloke posted:Netatmo low power mode is to keep the last state on valves and thermostats so if battery goes off(it will nag forever to replace batteries, via app and email) it might stay open. Yeah, I had the control station off through summer because it was completely useless. The thermostat would probably have send a low battery notification if it could. Still, "let er' rip" should never be the fail behavior of anything. Not on heizungsthermostate or car engines. (Maybe on hospital ventilators, but I'm not an expert)

(Maybe on hospital ventilators, but I'm not an expert) Valves are a motorized item, if it has zero power it cannot unwind the arm to shut them down. Same for the thermostat, if the relay goes on, it require power to change state. Going "if low power kill everything" would end up with frozen grandmas due to inability of checking the system state/ignoring notifications.

Going "if low power kill everything" would end up with frozen grandmas due to inability of checking the system state/ignoring notifications. I know. I set it to OFF through manual override sometimes this spring and literally haven't touched it since then. I wouldn't have been surprised otherwise. At some point in the last few months it actively opened the valve and then died. I noticed today because they turned on the heat at some point in the last few days. The proper way to implement a frostschutz is to have a separate mechanism that doesn't require power. It's not to turn the apartment/house into an backing oven every time the batteries die. Frost in housing due to a single failing thermostat is a very rare edgecase in TYOOL 2022 anyway. If people really need a solution for this for their one room Ferienhouse or whatever, just make a separate products with that functionality.

GABA ghoul posted:At some point in the last few months it actively opened the valve and then died. Oh, I know what happened then. Most smart valves do a calibration cycle every few months to check what operational interval it need to store in memory and to avoid the engine getting sticky and failing. It must have gone to zero battery during that phase. GABA ghoul posted:Frost in housing due to a single failing thermostat is a very rare edgecase in TYOOL 2022 anyway. Every apartment with central heating pumped to the floor and controlled by a thermostat falls in that scenario. Number is sizable, not edge case. My flat runs that way, if the thermostat is down in closed state in winter the whole abode goes arctic circle pretty fast.

Having owned a netatmo for the best part of a decade, you just need to set up the programming and temperature triggers fine, along with checking batteries yearly. My netatmo valves last 6-8 months as I have a strict hysteresis programming rather than letting the thermo guess, since I need to kill them during the night as the central heating shuts down and it would make it run the water pump needlessly, wasting euros. It need tinkering esp if your heating system is managed by others. SlowBloke fucked around with this message at 16:00 on Sep 18, 2022 |

Tarquinn posted:Would you recommend them? Are they actually an upgrade worth the money? It depends. Netatmo for instance doesn't do geofencing (kill heating when nobody is at home) natively but can be interfaced with apple HomeKit to run those duties. Also it relies on connectivity for operation, no internet and you will have to manually open/close the valves outside their current programming. If you don't have a smart HVAC, tado let you cover heating and cooling under the same umbrella, something that netatmo cannot. Parts are generally expensive but gets heavily discounted on Black Friday. Overall it's a nice add but not as impressive as smart lighting or motorized blinds.

Eve Thermos does it’s thing without connectivity and runs over Bluetooth mesh, they’re pretty reliable (had them as lights for a couple years), and I’m curious how well they work for heating, first heating season coming up

I had all radiators off for multiple days this winter during ~0°C weather and I don't think the room temperature ever dropped below 16°C. I'm second-hand heated enough from other apartments + Treppenhaus around me. I also think that if all doors are open, a single radiator on frostschutz could protect the whole apartment(but, yeah, that's very Raumplan-dependent and not true for every apartment)

I wonder how they made that and when (But not enough to do a minute of research.) How would the consensus be to be ashamed of Ludwigshafen? There's barely anything there! They probably asked a bunch of Berliners who could not admit their cities eternal shame. Also Ukraine feeling shame for Kherson is a bit grim nowadays.

Huh, now I'm actually quite interested in installing some fancy automated thermostats. Mine are old as gently caress and I often run into the issue where setting ~3 usually ends up overheating the room (especially when I'm in there working with the PC running) whereas ~2.5 or less has it end up cooling down too much.

Netatmo lets you move the control logic from the thermostat to the valves so it will keep that room at a specific temperature, triggering the thermostat if needed(it's not the default behavior, it's called comfort mode).

When they work they are really nice. Put a thermometer in the middle of the room, set up a heating schedule on the app and forget about it. Override the schedule with the press of a button in the app nach bedarf. Never have to touch the thermostats again. The tado ones have open window detection and will shut the valves during Lüften automatically.

Ludwigshafen certainly is a solid choice here, I would also have submitted Heilbronn, but I really feel that any answer that isn't Berlin is akin to Strafvereitelung
