Electric underfloor heating systems are perfect to use as primary heating methods in single-room renovations and their quick installation times mean you can feel the luxury of a Warmup system in a matter of hours. Controlling an electric floor heater couldn’t be easier than by using one of our Smart Thermostats. Our collection of Smart heating controls feature SmartGeo technology which learns your routines; offering radiant warmth at the right temperature, at the right time, automatically – without the need to set up a heat program. Smart controls also have the ability to be controlled remotely from your Smartphone via the Warmup MyHeating app and MyWarmup online portal.  

Warmup’s 6iE Smart WiFi Thermostat combines advanced technology with premium design and materials to create the ultimate underfloor heating controller. It is the world’s first UFH controller with a Smartphone touchscreen and maximizes on the energy-efficiency of a floor heating system.

The Terra WiFi Thermostat features all the innovative Smart technology of the 6iE without its touchscreen functionality. With a sleek, unobtrusive design, it has been built with simplicity and stylish functionality in mind, utilizing simple touch buttons for accurate control of your underfloor heating system.

As we explored earlier, a Smart Thermostat can dramatically improve the energy performance of a heating system which can in turn, help reduce the running costs of your home’s heating.  

Smart controls facilitate zoned heating: this means splitting your property’s heating system into different ‘zones’ in the home – allowing you to heat specific rooms independently to each other. Multi-zone heating dramatically enhances the energy-efficiency of a heating system and will help reduce energy wastage.

Warmup’s Smart controls work together with our Smartphone apps to maximize on both the energy-savings and cost-savings offered. Using the MyHeating app to remotely control your underfloor heating could help reduce your energy usage by up to 25%; potentially lowering your energy bills by over $400 a year.   

Yes, you can. Our Smart controls can be connected to other Smart devices in a property with ease. Looking to control your heating by voice through your Smart speaker? Warmup controllers are compatible with the Amazon Echo through Amazon’s Alexa app and other voice assistants through the IFTTT platform.
