Ease of use

Score: 5

Nice thermostat with an easy to read screen.

In the installation there are a few points of attention:

– Wi-fi must be on a fixed channel, otherwise it will not work.
– In Windows 8, 8.1 or Windows 10 there is a tool needed to access the wi-fi of the thermostat. https://support.thermosma…mart-in-windows-8-1-en-10

– Outside of the programmed blocks the Thermosmart to its base temperature.
So among other things at night the Thermosmart to the base temperature.

This base temperature hear adjustable.
For me there was out of the box an old firmware in that this could not yet.

Probably because my Thermosmart the last of the stock of the store, and was thus out of the display case came

The firmware overnight automatically updated to the latest version.
So after a night has this issue self-resolved.

Only if you do not know, you are a time searching for you’re behind.

I use the Thermosmart in combination with Dreble and Domoticz.

Domoticz is especially to changes in temperature.
The link with Domoticz is very easy.

In the beta state the Thermosmart there already just.

Dreble is a service for Geofencing, but something more advanced.
Dreble says to learn from your patterns and so always ensure that you are in a warm house to come home.

I use the Thermosmart together with a Vaillant HR Solide Plus VHR-NL 24-28/3-5

This boiler is about 2 years old and has an OpenTherm board already.

If the boiler with the standard Vaillant thermostat was fitted then the wire of the thermostat, therefore, be moved to the terminals on the Openthem board.

After connecting the thermostat to the board, everything worked immediately, without any further settings.
