  • Are you tired of controlling your heating manually? Start to heat your home the smart way. Today I'm showing you, how to replace your old TRV with the Eve Thermo smart thermostat. This video covers the unboxing and the whole installation of the Eve Thermo.
    By replacing a traditional Radiator Thermostat with a smart thermostat, you can save a huge amount of money. Your heating does not have to run all the time if you are not at home. This means a smart thermostat is basically paying for itself.
    Let me know If you have any questions regarding the Eve Thermo or how you can set it up in the Eve App.

    Nice video! but does my thermostat that hangs on the wall have to be open all the time?

    Great review! Do you know if this would make any difference on an older radiator which the company who I rent my apartment from controls via the temperature outdoors? They turn them on/off from their own central. I can switch from 0-7 on my current trv/raditor heat control thing.

    • @AttiBear

      Hey Philip, thank you very much! Well the answers is yes and no 😁. If your landlord turns on the heating in general let's say when it's 8° outside, the thermostats won't make a difference till it's 8° or below. Once the heating is turned on, you'll benefit from the Eve Thermo. With your traditional TRV you'll be wasting a bunch of energy. With the Eve Thermo you can utilize things like Schedules and such. So they should pretty much pay for themselves after one or two heating periods depending on your preferences.

    Excellent I can see how that works but what are you using as a relay to switch the boiler on and off? Regards Hugh

      Hi Hugh, thank you for your comment. No i don't need to switch on the boiler cause in germany most of the heating systems are controlled through facility management.

    Hi Atti, great review! Two questions: 1. How good is the bluetooth range? I was considering Fibaro solution but they really struggle with more than few meters. 2. Any news on the next generation Eve Thermo with wi-fi connectivity? I believe they would already introduce it if there would be more energy efficient wifi option.

    • @AttiBear
      @AttiBear  3 года назад

      Hey Tomasz, the Thermo received a minor hardware upgrade by the end of last year where they improved on the range. Nevertheless i would recommend using one of their Eve Extends (connects to Wifi). They massively improve the connectivity and reliability.

      If the Apple TV is in range you can control it remotely from anywhere. If not, you can use their extenders which are connected through wifi. They can control up to 8 devices.

    All the EVE Thermo ads and video's fail to cover and show one very important things. If 2 rooms have 2 different temperature set (example : 1 room on 18 deg Celsius and the other room at 20 deg Celsius ) how do they talk to the boiler, and what temperature efficiency is the boiler working at?. How does the TRV valves talk to the boiler?

    • @AttiBear
      @AttiBear  2 года назад

      They don’t connect to the boiler at all. They only adjust the individual valve. So if you have two valves in one room each one will be adjusted separately unless you have a HomeKit enabled thermostat that controls both of them

    • @ragingsilver
      @ragingsilver 2 года назад

      You set the boiler to a certain temp yourself. The thermo will turn up or down the temp individually.
