Frost protection/ temperature control with Tellstick Net
Posted: Fri Mar 17, 2023 9:45 am
Hello all.
I am new to Telldus products and searching for possible setups to automatically/ remotely control gear at my cabin. I'm presently using a gsm/sms based control/ alarm system - giving my a lot of false alarms etc.
Yesterday I bought a Tellstick Net and now I'm searching for opportunities to phase out this gsm/sms based control system at my cabin.
The setup of on/off switches and reading of thermometers etc seems straight forward. However temperature control/ frost protection seems diffuse to me at the moment.
I want to build a system that switches heating on when temperature inside my cabin reaches a remotely set "lower temperature limit" (ie +3gr C). The system should prefferably keep heating on until ie +6C is reached - than switch heating off (back to standby and ready for a new frost protection 'cycle')
When I want to visit my cabin I would want to set a new "lower limit" a few days ahead to bring temperature up to comfort level inside the cabin.
After I have left the cabin I want to set the system back to frost protection mode again.
Probably I'm looking for a HW thermostat to communicate with my Tellstick Net that can be remotely set from Telldus Live or ie Remotestick on my Android phone.
Or maybe there are som webbased solutions/SW that could automatically take care of the frost protection for me.
Any ideas would be much appreciated.
Thanks
