GSM temperature sensors. GSM thermometers and alarms with thermo sensors. How to remotely control the temperature of a living space Remote temperature control

Until recently, remote control of heating in the country was available only to professionals who are able to independently assemble the controller circuit from separate radio components or to those who could pay for such services. However, modern manufacturers have released many models of controllers for smart home systems that control various equipment, including heating. Another reason why factory control modules are highly recommended is for fire safety.

Requirements for a temperature control and heating control system

Most often, the following tasks are set for the heating control system in the country:

Firstly, maintaining the minimum required temperature in the house to prevent freezing of the heating system and the building itself;
Secondly, the remote switching on of heating in the country before the arrival of the owners, so that by the time of arrival the internal premises have warmed up to a comfortable temperature.

To solve the tasks, the heating control system must meet the following criteria:

Display information about the current temperature in the room and outside after the user's request;
Send alarm messages if the temperature goes beyond the limit values;
Remotely control the heating system, with the ability to regulate the temperature in the whole house or in its individual rooms using SMS messages or through special mobile applications;
Have an affordable price high reliability and ease of management;
Opportunity self installation and settings.

The difficulty in developing universal recommendations lies in the fact that a wide variety of methods can be used to maintain the temperature in the country. Of the most common, it can be noted: central heating using a gas or electric boiler and radiators, heating with convectors distributed throughout the premises and traditional stoves or fireplaces.

As a rule, control devices of the GSM alarm system are used as control devices, which have advanced functions and an additional interface for controlling various devices.

Control of central heating boilers

For example, the GSM alarm controller Block-Post 4, manufactured by EDS LLC, was used.

This device allows you to control the temperature in 8 zones at a distance of up to 100 from the main device. Although the device is intended primarily for an alarm system, its latest firmware has ample opportunities for working with temperature indicators and the corresponding external peripherals:

The range of perceived measurements is -40°С…+120°С with an accuracy of half a degree;
Built-in protection against freezing of the coolant, you just need to specify which channel the information from the detector is fed to and the boundary value. If it is exceeded, an SMS with a warning is sent;
There is a WEB interface with the ability to maintain statistics and visualize temperature graphs for the period for each temperature sensor;
It is possible to program the maintenance of a given temperature regime and the prevention of freezing of the heating system.

This device has several advantages over others that regulate the same functionality. First of all, all modules, including the GSM modem and the UPS (up to 12 hours of autonomous operation), are built into the case, which greatly simplifies its installation and configuration. After the SIM card is installed, the controller automatically connects and registers on the developers' WEB service, which is located at http://monitoring.gsmbps.ru/. Using standard visualization shell tools, you can easily program the device to perform many functions without knowing any programming language. Connection directly to the boiler is made via relay outputs.

In addition, the developers are constantly improving both the hardware of the device and firmware, as well as the software on the server. The only limiting factor in the widespread use of BlockPost controllers is their rather high cost and poor compatibility with devices from other manufacturers.

Convector control - decentralized heating

It is advisable to implement the technical solution by means of a modular system, since external controlled devices can be from several pieces to several dozen. As an example, the basic GSM module for building signaling and control systems BM8039D is used. The manufacturer positions this device for the protection and control of a boiler room or electric heaters in residential premises.

The device is configured special program"Configurator" supplied in the kit. The program interface is quite clear - object-oriented and does not require specific knowledge in the field of programming. There is also mobile app control for smartphones based on Android, is called "Logic of the house" it can be downloaded from GooglePlay.

BM8039D can measure temperature in 32 zones, has a built-in thermostat routine and is able to maintain the set temperature regime in room. For use as a control system for convectors, additional equipment from the same manufacturer is required:

ВМ8069D - expansion unit. Temperature sensors, smoke detectors and relays are connected directly to it, through which the heating system is controlled;
ВМ8070 - relay for connecting powerful equipment (electric convectors). It is not recommended to exceed the load of 2 kW per device;
PW1240UPS with NT800 battery - ensures uninterrupted operation of the control system in the event of a power outage.
MA802 - motion detector for alarm system;
SN18B20 - outdoor temperature detector - waterproof;
MP309 - module for measuring the values of analog temperature sensors type LM335;
LM335 - analog temperature sensors, range of measured values -40°С…+100°С, measurement accuracy up to 1°С (quite effective devices at a budget price - up to $ 1).
NM18B20 temperature detectors, set of two.

ATTENTION! VM8069D module has one important feature operation, when it is started without an attached antenna, the device is guaranteed to fail, while no additional device blocking the operation of the device with an absent antenna is provided.

The use of universal controllers is justified if, in addition to controlling the heating system, they will perform other functions: security and fire alarm, control of the irrigation system in the country, remote switching on of lighting to create the effect of presence, etc.

How to remotely measure the temperature in the country and control heating with special devices

Many manufacturers produce a variety of GSM devices, the main specialization of which is the remote control of heating devices. The user can choose among many different models:

Gsm-climate zont-h1 - is a thermostat for indoor installation with an integrated SIM card. The device is compatible with almost all models of gas boilers that have an input for external control. Management can be carried out from a smartphone, PC, tablet with any operating system. On the manufacturer's website https://zont-online.ru/demo you can download free management applications. Changing the basic settings can be password protected. Up to 10 temperature detectors can be connected to the device to determine the temperature inside and outside the building. Setting up the device is quite simple, after inserting a SIM card into the SIM card slot, an SMS is sent from the user's phone, subsequently this number receives administrator rights.
Sapsan PRO 5T - the device is a thermostat for 1 temperature detector to which one external electrical device. The device independently maintains the set temperature range. When going beyond the set limits, an SMS message is sent to the user. It is possible to configure via computer. The control utility is included in the package.
Signal XQ - the device, in addition to the GSM module and the temperature sensor, has a built-in battery inside the case, which ensures autonomous operation of the device for 24 hours from the moment the power is turned off. Signal XQ sends an alarm SMS in the event of a blackout at home, which is no less important than maintaining the temperature, since most modern heating devices are volatile. Through the device, it is also possible to organize the control of a gas or electric boiler with an external control module.
GSM thermometer "Telemetrics" - a device from a domestic company. extremely easy to install and use. Can control two electrical devices by energizing the corresponding relay outputs. Management is implemented through free apps for Android and iOS.

A budget option

There is a very economical way to solve the problem. It consists in using GSM sockets. In this case, control is carried out in manual mode through command SMS messages. An example would be the following models:

To control one device GSM socket T4 from Telemetrica. Remotely controls the boiler through the control of the power output. You can set the operating temperature range, time frame (weekly schedule and timer up to 24 hours) or control via SMS messages and mobile applications
To control several devices, it is recommended to use models of the type B-DIN-BOX - GSM controller for 5 machines. This device implements the control of each channel separately, as well as general commands for all lines. It is also possible to set a password for each channel.

IMPORTANT! When choosing a specific GSM socket model, pay attention to electrical safety: the quality of the housing, the reliability of the contacts, the availability of grounding, etc. Remember that we are talking about devices of increased fire hazard.

Remote room temperature control (remotely) is part of a modern heating system and fire alarm system installed in country house.

GSM modules for temperature control and management

Devices that monitor and regulate the temperature regime (gsm alarms), both in cottages and in offices, warehouses, industrial premises(server rooms, greenhouses, transformer rooms, granaries, freezers, etc.) are integrated into a common security system that manages access control, video surveillance and remote warning.

Automatic control of the air temperature in the premises at a distance is carried out using stationary or wireless temperature sensors. Digital information is sent to the control panel. Depending on the communication capabilities of the remote site, data transmission is carried out via an Internet connection or via SMS - by phone.

Temperature control devices - GSM alarms

The main task of the temperature alarm device installed in a country house is a remote multi-point control of the operation of the boiler and the air temperature in residential premises. The calculation of the quantity, installation and installation of electronic temperature sensors is carried out after examining the heating system in the country. The presence of additional fire and security equipment (motion sensors, fire detectors, gas and water leakage alarms) connected to the relay inputs of the alarm module is taken into account.

In case of insufficient power of the control panel, it is necessary to use equipment with a large number of control zones. Xital GSM produces expansion units that allow you to additionally get 8 control zones for connecting alarm systems, access control systems, CCTV, notification of the operation of boiler temperature relays, power surges, status hot water.

In production, GSM systems are used not only for energy-saving heating, but also for controlling ventilation and air conditioning processes, checking transformers and electric motors, temperature conditions in a greenhouse, server room, cold store, grain storage, laboratories. Programs for gsm monitoring and remote control of automation are supplied by the manufacturer and can be easily installed on mobile devices.

GSM SMS alarm - temperature remote control

Technical means and equipment of wireless GSM SMS alarms allow you to organize a remote control, measurement and regulation of temperature in the premises large sizes. Sitting in an armchair in the living room, through radio-controlled key fobs, buttons and remote controls connected to alarm units and air temperature sensors, the owner can exercise climate control anywhere in the house, adjust the temperature of the water in the pool and the air in the sauna, turn it on and off security system, open entrance lock etc. At the same time, the integrity of the interior is not violated, the original comfort and coziness remains in the heart of your home.

Cozy living room - the heart of the house

For the sake of comfort in your home, you can work hard, choosing exactly those interior items that will make the atmosphere in any room unique and inimitable. Among these products you can find unusual items that will complement the interior of any home, as well as traditional items, such as products for the family living room, cozy bedroom, and even for the kitchen. The main thing is to choose what you like.

Not only the impression of the room, but also the convenience of its use depends on how correctly you choose the furniture. Its design should be treated with all the attention available to you, because it is the real "face" of your home. It is here that those who do not linger at the entrance / hallway level get in, and it is she who gives guests the first impression of your home.

How much furniture do you need for the living room?

The first thing you should think about when furnishing the living quarters in the house is how much free space you are willing to allocate for furniture. If you are a supporter of minimalism, then you can limit yourself to:

table
sofa
a couple of armchairs/chairs
one or two pedestals.

If you are going to use the living room not only as a place for receiving guests, it would be appropriate to install several wardrobes for storing clothes. This is a much more rational way of using space in the living room.

Decide on a style

What would you like to see the most comfortable place in your house? If your dream is made in high-tech style, choose metal and glass furniture. If you are a supporter of the classics, modular or cabinet furniture will suit you.

The case option is found in many houses and apartments. Such furniture is popular because it allows regular rearrangements, changing the interior. But at the same time, the size of the cabinets remains unchanged.

Recently, more and more attention has been drawn to modular furniture, with all its advantages. But before you go to buy it, decide on a set of elements that you consider necessary for the living room. The contents of wardrobes are increasingly "moving" to wardrobes, which are installed in the hallway, and sometimes even in the bedroom. You will definitely need a rack or cabinet for appliances, as well as a large dining table. But in a small kitchen, it does not fit, so it is often installed in the living room. After all, this is a gathering place for the whole family! If you are particularly limited in space, a folding option will do.

Quality and more quality

In order for the furniture to serve you for a long time, bringing pleasure from its use, you need to choose high-quality products from good materials. Here you have three options:

veneer - from natural wood only the top covers are done
Chipboard - lighter and cheaper material
solid wood is the most reliable, durable and environmentally friendly type of material.

Of course, when buying, you will have to focus not only on the advantages and disadvantages of materials, but also on your budget. However, once you make a successful investment, you will provide your home with high-quality and reliable furniture for many years to come.

When choosing furniture for the living room, think over every detail of your future interior. After all, coziness and comfort - this is what should "meet" you in own house, Despite everything.

Today we will talk about the possibility of automating the control of heating boilers in a country house. Indeed, today there is no problem to provide remote dispatching of household systems, including heating, providing savings and a high level of comfort.

Goals of remote control

How often does the average person country house suitable for heating boiler? If it is a gas or electric unit, then minimal attention is paid to it. Thanks to modern devices automation is possible offline work boiler for a very, very long time. Only in severe frosts do you want to turn on the light in order to feel this pleasant contrast even more strongly: outside the window there is snow and wind, and in the house it is warm and cozy. But remote dispatching exists, so what tasks does it solve?

You should start with the fact that there are two heating modes: economical and comfortable. If the tenants of the house are absent for 10-12 hours a day, why maintain the optimal 23 ° C, if you can set the temperature sufficient for safety indoor plants and pets? And if the system will work in a saving mode during the absence of the owners, how to ensure a quick access to the rated power so as not to return to a half-cooled house every time? Of course, you can use timing management, but a rare person can boast a clear and uniform schedule. So, the first goal of remote heating control is to quickly change the heating power.

Another aspect lies in the stability of the system. No matter how reliable and high-quality the boiler equipment is, the probability of an accident is still not zero. A drop in pressure, a stop in circulation, gas leaks - potentially all of these phenomena are quite frightening. If the boiler room is left unattended for a long time, then remote dispatching provides its second important function - monitoring the system's performance and notifying the user about problems. Well, the third function is the ability to remotely troubleshoot or prevent the consequences of an accident.

Type of fuel and modes of operation

Electronics provides a huge range of solutions of different levels of complexity, including those controlled over long distances. However, there is a big difference in what type of heating system you have to deal with, this directly determines the completeness and cost of the equipment.

Easiest to manage electric boilers: one or more heating elements can be switched by a simple contact or solid state relay. Additional switching can be used to control forced circulation devices. Neither gas leaks nor damping of the solid fuel combustion chamber can occur.

If gas is chosen as the source of energy for heating, the boiler room is classified as a high-risk facility. The reverse draft can put out the burner, which the faulty automation will safely ignore. Remote control will allow you to turn off the gas supply or re-ignite the boiler, and if this is not possible, drain the water from the system to prevent it from freezing.

It is more difficult than others to manage solid fuel heating systems. Here, control over the automatic supply of fuel is required, it is extremely important to maintain constant circulation so that the coolant does not boil. But in this regard, dispatching devices cope with a bang: in the end, everything is controlled by electromechanical devices, and it is very easy to interfere in their work remotely.

Electric boilers

Remote control of an electric boiler is one of the most budgetary projects. Depending on the configuration and modes of operation of the system, several options can be offered.

For heating without power control, where the problem of freezing is not relevant, that is, for antifreeze hydraulic systems, as well as air and convection ones. In such cases, all tasks are solved primitively - by a "smart" socket that can receive GSM messages (Domovoy, Sokol). The price of the issue is on average from 300 to 1000 rubles, the difference in cost is due to both differences in quality and switched load, and the presence of additional functions. For example, a socket may have a built-in thermostat or timer, as well as an independent power source. Some models have the ability to connect to mobile devices for easier configuration of operating modes. Most products provide feedback to the user, in particular, such sockets are able to notify of the correct execution of the command or the absence of electricity at the facility.

For multi-stage boilers and other heating devices with several active elements, several sockets can be used, but it is better to install one multi-channel (Elgato, Polygator) - the so-called rebuter. These devices are available in a wide range of configurations - both conventional plug multipliers and for mounting on DIN rail. The principle of operation is the same: remote control of the load by sending SMS with an instruction code or a call. Here it is already possible to implement quite interesting operation algorithms, such as turning on an additional heating circuit with separate system thermal control. It will be enough just to make small changes to the electrical connection diagram of the boiler by connecting individual heating elements to different channels.

Gas boilers

Unlike electric, gas heating systems require remote dispatching not only to receive commands, but also to provide high-quality feedback. Since direct control of a high load is not required, the solutions of the class described above are not entirely applicable. The best way out of the situation would be to use a modular switch with 3-4 contact groups, controlled via one of the wired interfaces (RS-232, 1-wire, etc.). Messages can be transmitted both via a GSM channel and via communication with a PC installed at the facility. Usually, in order to increase reliability, a main and a backup channel are organized.

The price range for gas boiler room dispatching systems is incredibly wide. In the lower price segment, there are devices from budget "Ksitals" for 7-8 thousand rubles to more friendly to the unprepared user Segnetics for 15-20 thousand rubles. The middle link includes domestic automation complexes OWEN, a set of devices can cost 20-30 thousand rubles. The most complex systems costing more than 50-70 thousand rubles are used in modular boiler rooms common use: on the one hand, dispatching notifies the service organization about the status of the system, on the other hand, users control individual parts of the collector node at their discretion. Solutions of this kind are not just a set of devices “out of the box”, manufacturers of boiler room equipment such as ROSS and Viessman work in this category, providing the consumer with a comprehensive project and installing, configuring and maintaining the system by qualified personnel.

In essence, such devices are ordinary signaling units that have from 6 to 20 control zones and are capable of managing 3-5 groups of dry contacts. In total, there are two popular architectures of such systems. Ksital, for example, are specialized boiler room automation units, which were originally designed to connect standard temperature sensors, gas pollution, smoke and flame detectors. In turn, systems such as Segnetics and ARIES are based on freely programmable controllers, which can be supplemented with communication devices and separate switching units. Their main feature is the ability to connect atypical sensors and control actuators of completely different types.

The main difference between the representatives of the latter group is the availability of a convenient user interface: Segnetics is easily configured when connected to a PC or mobile devices, but OWEN complexes require a more serious engineering approach, including writing your own firmware in high-level programming languages. Which choice to make for yourself depends on the complexity of the device of the boiler unit and the piping of the boiler room. So, the simplest Ksital block will be enough to fully control the operation of parapet and chimney boilers of low power (up to 40 kW), ARIES is used in boiler rooms with parallel connection of units, or in centralized systems air heating and conditioning.

Solid fuel heating control

Freely configurable control systems are optimally suited for solid fuel boilers and installations connected to biogas generation devices. The reason for this is obvious: such boiler houses were originally designed to work in the presence of an operator and, as a rule, have an individual scheme for setting operating modes.

So, for the simplest solid fuel boiler, it is necessary to adjust the inflow and draft, control the temperature of not only the air in the room, but also the coolant at the inlet and outlet of the boiler. Additionally, you should carefully monitor the operation of the circulation system by measuring the differential pressure at the inlet and outlet of the recirculation unit. The inclusion of gas analyzers in the complex will also not be superfluous; in addition, the temperature of the combustion products should be taken into account. The secondary function of such dispatching systems can be called the provision of economical fuel consumption and optimal modes of its combustion, depending on the desired temperature and the weather outside.

It is important to emphasize that full direct control over each node of the boiler room will be redundant for the average user. Therefore, to control solid fuel heating, complexes of two nodes are used: receiving commands presented by a GSM receiver or Internet router, as well as a software and computer complex that is configured once, and then provides the correct interpretation of the commands.

An additional complexity is introduced by the variety of actuators. Servo drives are used to control valves and gates, the performance of smoke exhausters and draft fans and circulation pumps is usually controlled by a frequency converter or PWM. The complex architecture of the system obliges to order not individual automation modules, but a ready-made set of equipment. However, most suppliers of such systems provide this kind of service at a very reasonable price: typical projects are about 30-40 thousand rubles, including the cost of equipment, but automation of an atypical boiler house with automatic fuel supply can cost more than 50 thousand rubles with a power of up to 100 kW.

Special Features

As a result, we will analyze which functions of dispatching systems are strictly required, what is the logic of the operation of such devices, and what additional features exist. So, when choosing automation with remote control, preference should be given to those products that provide the following functions:

availability of a backup communication channel;
watchdog timer that reboots the system when it freezes;
interrogation of separate control zones;
remote management of contact groups and their sufficient number;
notification of a change in system state;
Feedback, sending messages about the acceptance and execution of commands.

Additional capabilities of the dispatching module must be determined in accordance with the characteristics of the heating system device. So, for liquid heating systems, it is recommended to have leakage protection: humidity sensors and an electronic pressure gauge capable of recording a prolonged pressure drop. For open heating systems, it is desirable to control the liquid level in the expansion tank.

Particular attention should be paid to monitoring the operation of forced circulation devices. If the boiler is technically unable to turn off the heating when the critical temperature is reached, the only indication of overheating can be the temperature sensor readings on the supply pipe, which the control unit receives with a significant delay. In such cases, it is necessary to remotely stop heating by cutting off the supply of fuel or air, and if there is a risk of freezing of the coolant, drain it.

For remote control systems, it is preferable to have an automatic response to abnormal sensor readings. For example, automation itself should adjust the circulation rate depending on the temperature of the coolant in the supply and return, while the user should only receive notifications of critical conditions. In general, we can say that the most important benefit of using the systems we have considered is the timely receipt of information about breakdowns, which allows not only to take personal part in eliminating the accident as quickly as possible, but also to purchase replacements for faulty components or call a specialist if necessary.

Fortunately, nowadays everyone can remotely control the temperature in a country house. The company offers the most modern and efficient solutions for temperature control in winter months using remote control.

What tasks should a remote temperature control system perform?

As a rule, the heating control system has two tasks:

1. Maintaining the required temperature in the house. At a minimum, it should ensure that the building itself and the heating system in it do not freeze.
2. Remote switching on of heating in the country or in a smart home. For example, before the arrival of the owners, so that by the time of arrival all the rooms have warmed up to the desired temperature.

To solve the designated tasks, the temperature control system must meet the following requirements:

1. Provide information about the current temperature in the house and outside.
2. Send out alarms if the temperature is out of range.
3. Have remote control, in particular, the ability to control the temperature in individual rooms or in the entire smart home by any convenient way(using a mobile application, via SMS messages, etc.).
4. Possibility of self-configuration and installation.

Ways to control the temperature in the country in winter

There are two ways:

1. If the cottage has Internet access with a Wi-Fi router. In this case, you just need to purchase a GSM system that works via Wi-Fi. You can receive information about the temperature and control it through a program on a PC or a mobile application on a smartphone.
2. If there is no WI-FI in the country house. In this situation, the way out will be to use a regular SIM card in a GSM system. There are a large number of manufacturers of this equipment on the market, and our company is ready to offer you the best options available.

What is a GSM thermostat?

The basic device of the GSM system is to which you can connect various sensors (water leaks, gas leaks, smoke detectors, and others), including.

Modern GSM-thermostats, improved with additional software functions, equipped with relays, are equipment for full-fledged control of the temperature of heating boilers.

How does a GSM thermostat work?

The program underlying the operation of the GSM thermostat allows you to:

1. Set temperature thresholds (lower and upper) and receive SMS messages or voice alerts via an incoming call if the temperature has gone beyond these values.
2. Call the control module and receive voice information about the temperature from each thermometer connected to the unit, or send SMS commands and receive information about the temperature in the country house in the form of SMS messages.
3. Program the notification function: for example, to receive an SMS message with information about the temperature in the smart home and beyond several times a day at a certain time.
4. Set a certain temperature during indoor areas at home and change it by calling or SMS at the right time for you (for example, half an hour before your arrival at the dacha).

The principle of operation of all GSM thermostats is the same. Only parts (controller and microcircuits) can differ depending on the manufacturer. We can connect the functions of water leakage, security with video and photo fixation for minimal money. Subsequently, it will be possible to extend the functionality as needed (constructor principle).

What is a modular control system?

The technical component of the GSM thermostat operation is provided by a modular system, since there can be quite a lot of external controlled devices (modules): a heating boiler, electric heaters, burglar alarm, etc.

In fact, the GSM heating control system is a specialized controller, correlated with external sensors and having the ability to change the operating modes of the heating boiler.

The GS-module for temperature control can operate in four modes:

1. Manual. When the system is controlled by SMS messages or calls, with the help of which the user sets one or another temperature regime.
2. Automatic. When, according to signals from external sensors, the controller maintains the temperature conditions set by the user. At the same time, you can change the settings for automatic mode at any time.
3. Control mode. When the system sends SMS messages to the user with alarms: smoke, gas leakage, critical temperature values, etc.
4. Mode according to the schedule for the week. With the ability to set the temperature at certain hours and certain days of the week.

Which GSM module to choose?

The main selection criterion is that the module must perform the functions you need:

simultaneously support required amount temperature sensors (three, five, ten - your choice);
to communicate through calls or SMS messages (as it suits you);
optimally approach your model of the boiler (our experts will help to sort out this problem).

The main advantages of GSM heating control systems:

round-the-clock and effective temperature control in a smart home or cottage;
convenient remote control through a mobile application or via SMS messages;
expandability through additional modules;
ease of setup and installation;
low cost;
no subscription fee.

Do you own a country house and are you interested in effective temperature control? It turns out that there are currently several more or less effective ways, thanks to which the temperature in the country can be controlled.

The ability to control the temperature in a country house guarantees a number of significant advantages, which we will discuss in this article. And, of course, we will consider the most relevant technologies to date to achieve such results.

What is the purpose of remote temperature control systems?

By installing special equipment, through which the temperature for giving will be regulated, it will be possible to achieve the following results:

Ensuring comfortable parameters of moisture content in the air (moisture content is the ratio of temperature and humidity in the room).
Ensuring a longer service life of a construction object.
It's no secret that sudden changes in temperature and excessive humidity in the cold season is the primary reason for the frequent cosmetic and restoration repairs. Operational adjustment of temperature indicators allows you to prevent the appearance of mold on the walls and extend the service life without the need for repair work.
Ensuring the rational use of energy resources and, as a result, saving money.
In order to ensure optimal parameters of moisture content in the air, you can install a gas boiler or an electric heater and operate them without interruption during the entire cold season. But, in the end, the bill for consumed electricity or gas will be impressive.
You can do otherwise and apply a system in a country house that will turn on air heating exactly when it is needed. As a result, energy consumption will decrease significantly, which will save a certain amount of money.
Ensuring the safety of the operation of the construction site.
As already mentioned, you can apply continuous round-the-clock heating, even when you are not at home. But, on the one hand, it is not cheap, and on the other hand, it is unsafe, since heating equipment operated in the absence of a person can be a potential hazard.
The situation is quite different when you receive reliable data on the temperature in the room at a distance and, if necessary, you can adjust this data upward or downward.

So now we know the benefits of remote temperature control. It remains to consider the technologies on the basis of which this control is carried out.

GSM based technologies

To ensure effective control of the temperature parameters of the air in the room, you can use a GSM thermometer for summer cottages and special temperature sensors. The use of such technology is a relatively new development, which is becoming more widespread both in our country and abroad.

Using modern GSM systems, you can not only receive real information about the temperature in the room, but also remotely control these parameters, bringing them to the required value.

The functioning of the remote control system is carried out as follows:

System user, via SMS message on the channel cellular communication GSM receives information about the values of monitored parameters and, if necessary, sends a control command via a message.
The system, consisting of GSM thermometers and alarm sensors, sets the optimal temperature parameters from the user's point of view and maintains them for the entire specified time.

Remote temperature control is a progressive technology that is actively used in modern systems"Smart House".

Important: A prerequisite for the effective functioning of the GSM-thermometer is a stable supply of electricity.
If the power supply is intermittent, you will need to purchase or rent a diesel generator to give.

At the moment, the following versions of GSM-thermometers are presented on the market:

modifications with an integrated thermal converter;
modifications with an external location of the thermal converter.

How GSM - thermometer works

The device is powered by an external or integrated battery. Thus, the device effectively functions until the moment when the battery is discharged. After that, the battery automatically starts charging through the power supply.
Setting the device parameters is done by hand using a PC via a USB connector.
Depending on the brand and model of the device, it is possible to work with one or another number of phone numbers required to send messages.
Phone numbers from which sensor configuration is allowed are determined both when configuring using a PC and when configuring from a phone.
Depending on the modification and model, the device may have a power saving mode., in which the device operates from the internal battery for more than a month.
GSM - the thermometer is supplied to the user with a specialized software which simplifies the use of the system.

Features of the use of remote thermostats

Thermostats of this type are installed at a certain distance from the heating equipment. The required temperature is set on the thermostat, and the heating device starts to work in such a mode that the set parameters are constant with minimal deviations.

The thermostat is controlled by means of keys that duplicate the controls on the heating device. The device is equipped with a digital display, which displays readings about the air temperature in the room.

The advantage of this solution is that the price of a remote thermostat is an order of magnitude more affordable than the cost of a GSM thermometer. At the same time, using the thermostat, you can set the operating parameters of the heating equipment for several days in advance.

A significant disadvantage of such devices is the impossibility of notifying the user at a distance about malfunctions and malfunctions in the operation of heating equipment.

Important: The use of a special thermostat allows you to ensure optimal temperature parameters within a single room or several adjacent rooms.
At the same time, energy consumption becomes more economical, and the resource of heating equipment is longer.
