FAQ - Thermostats
Back to product selectionThe thermostat only supports classic ON/OFF control, which suits most common applications, is user-friendly and allows for quick and efficient commissioning of the entire system.
The thermostat is part of a professional security system and is installed as a permanent part of the building, just like electrical wiring or water distribution. Connecting it to the heating system also requires specialist knowledge.
For these reasons, it is essential to entrust the installation and system configuration to a professional installation partner. This is the only way to guarantee long-term reliable operation and free service support beyond the standard warranty.
A wireless thermostat is ideal when installing the solution in an already finished interior. Simply screw it to the wall or place it on a shelf and insert 2 AA alkaline batteries. These will last 2 to 3 years in the thermostat and are very easy to replace.
On the other hand, if you are building, renovating, or can run cabling to the installation site, a wired thermostat is the clear choice. It is completely maintenance-free, has a faster response time for settings and controls, and can be partially recessed into the installation box. This allows it to blend in better with the interior.
The entire solution must always include an alarm control panel, which ensures communication between the thermostats and individual system components, as well as remote communication with the user via a mobile application.
If heating control is your priority now, you will still need to install a system control panel. You can add an alarm or other functions to the system later. However, keep in mind that some unique energy-saving functions of thermostats (temperature reduction when a window is locked or open) depend on the alarm and its use.
Well-executed construction preparation will ensure smooth implementation. Preparation needs to begin no later than during the installation of cabling during the shell construction.
Put your JABLOTRON installation partner in touch with your heating engineer, meet at the building site and clarify where everything will be and who will supply what. The specific solution always depends on the specific building and heating system.
Details on construction preparation for common heating solutions can be found in the technical article here. If you have any questions, please contact our technical support.
Thermostats do not generate heat themselves but automatically regulate heating so that the desired temperature is maintained at a predetermined time, while at the same time not wasting heat. You can read about how JABLOTRON thermostats work in the article on the blog.
Any heating system can be regulated, from hot water or electric underfloor heating, through classic radiators to electric heaters. Zone regulation allows for the lowest operating costs, where an individual temperature is maintained in each room at pre-set times.
It is also possible to set up central control of the heat source according to one or two reference rooms. A comparison of individual solutions and further information on connecting JABLOTRON 100+ to a heating system can be found in the technical article here.
