The control unit for heating elements of the boiler is universal. Temperature regulator ZOTA Control panel (remote control) of the electric water heater PU EVT-I1 - “Too lazy to raise the butt and flood the boiler? Buy a remote control and it will control the heat in your home. Details about the work, photos and full ins

I already wrote.

It is heated with firewood and coal, but when there is no one at home, or laziness mother attacks, we turn on HIM, the Zota remote control. Manufacturer Krasnoyarsk Energokomplekt.

Unfortunately, I did not find a receipt, only a guarantee and instructions. The cost 2 years ago was about 3000 rubles. And now, I looked at about 4000 rubles.

Here is our remote.

It has two indicators -Network, -Heating, two rotary switches -water, -air, and three heater switches (since there are three heaters in the boiler). The connection diagram and details are indicated in the instructions.

Voltage is supplied to the remote control from the stabilizer, and the second output goes to the boiler.


to heating elements.

Since we have a water and air temperature setting, there are corresponding sensors.

We have an air sensor installed on the wall in the first corridor.

We did not install a water sensor, because. The remote control was purchased after the installation of the boiler.

In fact, it is inserted into the hole of the boiler water jacket plug, which is located opposite the pipe outlet (the plug with a special hole for the boiler was sold separately). And since we had already started heating and all the plugs were dead, we did not change anything. We didn't really need him. Due to the low voltage of the electrical network, we cannot turn on all the heaters near the boiler (maximum two), but usually we use one heater. It heats water up to 40-50 degrees, it is not dangerous and comfortable in the house.

But if you have Normal voltage in el. network, it is very important to connect this sensor, at least to the pipe leaving the boiler. Wrapped up with thermofoil. So that the boiler has a limitation not only in terms of air temperature, but also of water (so that there is no overheating over 80).

We tested our remote control (or rather, the operation of the sensors) with boiling water and a warm fan)))) there was nothing to do.

We turned it on, set the temperature to 23, the boiler turned on, then we heated the air detector, and it turned off the remote control, the heating stopped. Then they blew cold air on the sensor and it turned on, then they already checked the water sensor (after setting it to a temperature of 60 degrees), lowered it into boiling water, and it turned off the remote control.

But the real happiness was when It all worked in tandem with the boiler. You go to work, come home, it's warm at home and you don't have to do anything (people living with stoves will understand me), at night it's the same.

This remote control can be used on sauna ovens, the meaning is the same, but with a water sensor everything is already different there.

The possibilities of devices for remote control of heating every year (what's there every year - almost every month!) are becoming more and more perfect. Smartphone app developers try to make them easy to use and easy to understand even for untrained people. Briefly, we list only the main features of such systems that support:

  • normal operation, when the set temperature is maintained throughout the house;
  • zonal mode, when different rooms can have individual temperatures;
  • prevention of defrosting of the heating system (freezing of pipes) in the cold season, when you are away from your country house or cottages;
  • the possibility of early switching on the boiler, for example, you need to warm up a country house when you are going to visit it on weekends or holidays;
  • always be aware of your work autonomous heating and, if necessary, to carry out its diagnostics;
  • a temporary regime in which at different times during the day the house can maintain its own thermal regime with a significant reduction in material costs for fuel, for example, you can set the boiler to low power(respectively, for low fuel consumption), going to work or on business, and turn on the normal mode before returning.

Remote heating control means that any of these modes, as well as specific room temperatures, are changed using mobile communications, or heating is controlled via the Internet.
This approach is part of the ideology of creating a “smart home”, what entails further development all engineering systems at home in order to ensure ease of use and create the most comfortable living conditions.

Which heating system can be controlled remotely?

In country houses and cottages, two-pipe systems with forced circulation of the coolant are currently most often used: circulation pump it pumps the coolant throughout the heating system, which, thanks to the distributor comb, can be supplied to each heating device.
In such systems, as a rule, a safety block of the heating system is used to protect it from destruction in unforeseen situations, for example, in the event of an increase in pressure beyond the allowable one.
It is also necessary to have additional equipment to control the operation of the heating system: sensors, special valves and devices for adjusting the flow of the coolant, and it is also necessary to combine various devices to the information network

Weather-compensated heating control

To date, it is considered the most promising. In such systems, in addition to the sensor room temperature also used is an external air temperature meter. In principle, a weather-dependent heating controller will work with one external sensor, but using two allows you to achieve more accurate mode maintenance and even implement self-adaptation of the system to specific temperature changes: if it gets colder outside, then the temperature of the coolant in the system rises in advance, if it is warmer - then decreases in advance. In addition to saving fuel, this reduces the inertia of the system, which increases its efficiency and also provides additional cost savings. One of the basic points of the weather-dependent heating control can use a temperature of plus twenty degrees - with it, the temperature of the coolant is taken equal to the ambient temperature, while the heating is actually turned off. It is also necessary to take into account the zonal temperature control, i.e. if, for example, in one of the rooms gathered a large number of people, due to which it became hotter in it, the system detects a local increase in temperature relative to that set by the weather heating controller, and makes a correction in this zone.
In general, serious battles flared up on the Internet about - is it worth using weather-dependent automation at all or is it money thrown to the wind? In short, the opinion of our specialists, confirmed, by the way, by the reviews of numerous customers, is unambiguous - yes, it is worth it, but not in all cases. And in what? Answer

Types of remote control heating systems

Currently, two systems are used for remote control of heating:

  • using a set of equipment with an Internet gateway. The presence of a Wi-Fi router and the Internet in this case is mandatory.
  • using a GSM heating control module. Requires a special GSM module with a SIM card from a mobile operator.

Remote control of the boiler room using mobile GSM

And what if the wired Internet in country house No? How can the heating be controlled in this case?

Yes, it's very simple - with the help of a special GSM module and, of course, a mobile phone. In fact, the GSM module acts as your personal assistant - you called him, gave him a command, for example, to pre-heat the hotter by a certain time - and the whole family will arrive in a warm and cozy house. Or vice versa, if you forgot in the morning, leaving for work, to reduce the power of the boiler is not a question, you can do it right from work, via the Internet or directly from your smartphone, while you are still getting to work.
The GSM module is a compact device with its own SIM card of any operator (it is important that it provides reliable signal reception in the area), which allows you to control the indoor climate from any phone (satellite, mobile or fixed line), tablet or PC.

The undisputed leader in the market of GSM thermostats is currently Russian company Micro line company. The company produces wide range GSM modules for remote control heating boilers, including multifunctional controllers that provide control of the most complex systems heating.
You can buy in the appropriate section on our website GSM heating control

Depending on the settings you have made, your phone will either receive short SMS notifications with various information and instructions for changing the heating boiler settings, or you will receive phone calls with various information about the operation of the heating system. A special mobile app(there are versions for Android, and for iOs, and for Windows Phone), which allows you to directly remotely control almost all parameters of the heating boiler.
The GSM heating control module is essentially a computer docked with external sensors and having the ability to change the operating modes of the heating system. Naturally, the module must be in the zone of reliable reception of mobile operators.

GSM heating control module can operate in several modes:

  • automatic, when on signals from installed sensors the controller supports the given modes according to the given program;
  • SMS heating control when the heating system is controlled by sending SMS. In this case, when new data arrives, for example, about the temperature in the room, the controller accepts them for execution and begins to automatically support them;
  • warning, by sending alarm messages about the current state of the house (gas leak, break in the water supply system, etc.);
  • remote control of other devices connected to the GSM module (watering, lighting, alarm, etc.).

GSM - heating control allows you to remotely:

  • receive indoor temperature reports;
  • receive notifications about the current state of heating equipment;
  • change the operating mode of the system by raising or lowering the temperature, including separately in each room.

Heating control is not limited to these functions. In principle, any heating system can be turned into a remote one. To do this, it must have an automatic mode of operation, and a special GSM controller must be connected to it to control heating and communicate with the subscriber.

Is this not enough for you? Then look at the possibilities of multifunctional GSM controllers, for example: ZONT H-1000 or ZONT H-2000 The devices are complex, require professional knowledge during installation and configuration, so only highly qualified specialists are required for installation - contact our company, we have them!

Remote control of the boiler using a set of equipment with an Internet gateway

Now consider the option remote control heating, if the country house or cottage has the Internet and, of course, a Wi-Fi router (aka a router).
Everything is much simpler here - you can see the capabilities of the devices proposed below and forever forget about worries about the state of the heating system in your home.

Salus IT500 provides control and adjustment of operation parameters in a maximum of two heating zones, for example, in the 1st room on the first floor of the cottage and the shower room on the second floor.
The kit includes an actuator (boiler receiver), a 2-channel room thermostat (weekly boiler programmer, boiler control panel) and an Internet gateway connected to an Internet router (router).

Possibilities of controlling the heating system using a set of equipment with the Salus iT500 Internet gateway:

  • control of heating only modes (boiler and, if necessary, pump);
  • management of several heating zones;
  • management of heating and hot water supply of a country house.
  • maintaining different temperatures in different rooms, schedule temperature conditions by days, hours and minutes
  • 6 preset heating modes on delivery
  • heating control hot water, automatic control modes, including energy-saving and vacation mode.
  • a unique system for connecting devices via the Internet, providing reliable connection and control of the heating system: a smartphone (or Personal Computer) -> Internet server -> router (router) -> thermostat -> receiver -> boiler

All equipment is wireless and communicates with each other via a radio channel, i.e. no need for electrical wiring. Room thermostat for a heating boiler it is programmed for daily, weekly or 5 + 2 operating modes. The thermostat screen and applications for remote heating control display the current state of the boiler, the current temperature and the set temperature. Schedule setting can be done from the thermostat panel, web browser or mobile app.
The thermostat has modern design, differs in high reliability and safety at its use.
With the use of additional equipment Salus Controls, it is possible to control, including remote, warm floors, gas and electric boilers, oil heating systems, as well as almost any other heating systems and appliances.
Remote management does not require a dedicated external IP address, the whole system works fine on any mobile internet(Yota, Megafon, Beeline, etc.), it is also possible to control from computers and mobile devices on the operating systems Android and iOS.

What to do if there is no wired Internet in the house, and a Wi-Fi Internet thermostat has already been purchased?

Most likely in the country there is coverage of mobile operators, isn't it? So you have internet! Just buy a Wi-Fi router with a USB port and in addition to it a 3G or 4G modem. Install a SIM card of any mobile operator in the modem that provides a reliable signal in the area where your home is located. You insert the modem itself into the USB connector of the router and that's it - now you have the opportunity to control the heating of the dacha remotely!

If for someone the iT500 seems expensive, the company offers a more budget solution - an internet thermostat Salus RT310i
The thermostat has somewhat reduced capabilities compared to the "big brother", but it can be a worthy replacement due to the lower price of the kit. Externally, the RT310i looks more modest compared to the first-class high-tech design of the iT500, it lacks touch controls, but the models are almost identical in functionality. Except that while the iT 500 is capable of controlling 2 heating or cooling zones, the RT310i can only control one zone.

Missing the features of the iT500? No problem - Salus iT600 can do it all and more!

If you do not have enough iT500 functionality to control only two heating zones, then on our website a more functional one is presented multizone(there are wired and wireless versions) system Salus iT 600 Smart Home. Well, something, and its capabilities for remote control of heating (and not only!) Will be enough even for the most demanding consumer!

Remote control of complex heating systems

An increasing share in this market segment is being won by Polish company Tech Controllers, which manufactures a wide range of remote controllers.
By themselves, Tech controllers are multifunctional devices that are the main, basic part of the system, which can remotely control heating systems of almost any complexity using additional modules. There are a lot of possibilities, therefore, using an example, we will consider only the possibilities for remote control.

Tech Controllers Hardware Installation Example

In the photo for installation used:
1. Controller Tech ST-409n- a multifunctional device designed to control the central heating system, providing:
interaction with three wired room regulators
interaction with a wireless room thermostat
smooth control of three mixing valves
DHW pump control
return temperature protection
weather control and weekly programming
the ability to connect the ST-65 GSM module for remote control of heating with GSM smartphone
the ability to connect the ST-505 module, which allows remote control of the boiler via the Internet.
Possibility to control two auxiliary valves with additional modules ST-61v4 or ST-431 N
Possibility to control additional equipment, for example garage doors, lighting or sprinkler, etc.

Various Tech modules can be used for remote control, it all depends on the specific needs of the owner. For example:

What if the heating system is so individual that none of the above solutions can fully meet the needs of its owner to manage it?
There are no hopeless situations! Most often, the customer himself simply does not understand (and should not!) All the possibilities modern systems remote control heating. It is really difficult for an unprepared person to understand all this abundance of devices offered on the market, which are completely different from each other in terms of functionality, price, and, of course, quality. Yes, and installers, often, simply do not have an idea about the possibilities for controlling heating systems - their task is to mount the system, but how often you will run around the house (or to the boiler room) and turn various valves to ensure constant thermal comfort, they do not care . Our specialists more than once had to almost completely remake the "creations" of such craftsmen, and this, believe me, costs a lot of money. A miser pays twice... Contact us, we will consult for free, and if necessary, we will install a remote control system for heating, we will help with the selection of high-quality equipment at an affordable price.
