The market is full of wireless thermostats making this very difficult to research. I just want to change my Danfoss FP715 central heating control to an alternative unit that I can access remotely....any solutions? Trying to avoid the expensive Nest/Hive.
All the functions of your control unit being controllable via your phone is a rather more complicated matter than altering a thermostat.
Not really. I built this a few weeks ago
My prototype looks like this.
It uses a web browser interface.
You can change the room temp setpoint and alter the on off shedule remotly. If I had designed it the DHW channel would be identical to the CH with its own 1-wire sensor on the HW cylinder, as it stands I can't fathom out the software to make changes.
Total cost to build, less than £10, that pissed off some Hive owners I know.
Quite. But probably wouldn't help with my boiler which is already microprocessor controlled.
It does have a buss to allow connection to extra zone controllers which can also switch the heating and hot water to standby, though. Or alter the on/off times and so on. But no idea if that uses a standard protocol.
