How to choose a thermostat for underfloor heating

A thermostat controls the underfloor heating and directly affects comfort and energy consumption. Let's look at which one to choose.

Types of thermostats

  • Mechanical — simple and reliable, adjusted with a dial. Budget-friendly option.
  • Programmable — set a heating schedule by day and hour, saving energy.
  • Smart (Wi-Fi) — DEVIreg™ Smart is controlled from a smartphone, adapting to your schedule.

What to consider

Check the sensor type (floor, air, or combined), maximum load (in kW), and compatibility with your heating cable. For large areas, a thermostat with a power reserve or a contactor is needed.

When a smart thermostat is needed

If you want to set a heating schedule and control the floor from your smartphone, choose DEVIreg™ Smart with Wi-Fi. For a dacha or rarely used rooms, a mechanical model is sufficient. Programmable thermostats are the golden mean: they save energy according to a schedule without an internet connection.

Our choice

For most apartments, a programmable or smart DEVIreg™ Smart is optimal. See models in the Thermostats section or contact us for assistance with selection.
