Your smart thermostats are linked to your entire Smart Home system. They can therefore be integrated effortlessly into individual scenarios or automations:

• In scenarios, you can control several devices at the same time with a single command. For example, your “Leaving home” scenario turns down all your radiator thermostats automatically, turns out the lights and switches off the power to devices connected to smart plugs.

• With automations, you can connect your smart radiator thermostats to other devices to control these according to the if-then principle.You can use temperature measurements to automatically lower your smart shutters from a certain temperature to keep out the heat – or to switch on fans connected via smart plugs for cooling. Conversely, smart devices can also activate your thermostats. The heating in your office could then be turned on automatically when you switch on the light to start work.

The preconfigured ‘Sustainable ventilation’ service throttles your Smart Home thermostats immediately and reliably as soon as your door/window contact registers an open window in the room.

You can customise the service individually:

• Select door/window contacts that are to act as triggers for regulating the thermostats.
• Select the reaction time (0-180 seconds) after which the radiator thermostats are to be throttled. This delay time allows you to let your cat out briefly, for example, without your smart thermostats being reduced immediately.

You can also play it safe in rooms without door/window contacts, such as in the hallway: With the Temperature drop service, your heating system recognises as soon as the temperature in the room drops rapidly and automatically regulates down. Although this service does not provide immediate and precise protection compared to the ‘Sustainable ventilation’ service, it also recognises broken windows or open windows without door/window contact.

A “heating break” is practical in summer and if you are away for long periods.

In this mode, your smart radiator thermostat is automatically turned down to the lowest setting and the room control which is part of automations and scenarios is ignored for the duration of the heating break. Consequently, there is no need to change all your automations and scenarios in summer.

To prevent limescale in the radiator valves building up over time, they are opened regularly even during the heating break.

Your radiator valves are thus maintained all year round without having the heating on unnecessarily.

You will find the heating break option in your Bosch Smart Home app under “Services” > “Climate manager”“ > “Heating break & cooling”.

Manual control on the device itself is intuitive and simple:

• Set desired temperature: Press the control knob on your smart thermostat briefly (1 second). The menu (“SET”) will open. You can now increase or decrease the temperature in 0.5 degree increments by turning the knob towards + or -.

• End heating break: Maybe a “heating break” is activated for your smart radiator thermostat but you would now like to heat the room. To do this, press the control knob for 1 second. You can now set your desired temperature in the usual way.

• Activate/deactivate child lock: To activate or deactivate the child lock, press the control knob for 3 seconds until “LCK” appears. By turning the knob towards + or -, you can easily activate or deactivate the child lock.
