Infrared panel with thermostat – smart heat under control
An infrared panel with a thermostat not only offers comfortable warmth but also complete control over your energy consumption. Thanks to the integrated or external thermostat, you can easily set your desired temperature, times, and zones. This way, you can enjoy consistent, comfortable warmth with optimal efficiency, both at home and in the office.
How does a thermostat work with infrared heating?
The thermostat continuously measures the room temperature and automatically switches the panel on and off. This prevents unnecessary energy consumption and keeps the temperature stable. Unlike traditional heating systems, infrared heating responds immediately: as soon as the thermostat requests heat, you'll feel the results within minutes. The combination of infrared radiant heat and precise control ensures maximum comfort with minimal energy consumption.
There are different types of thermostats: from manual models with a dial to digital versions controlled via an app. More and more customers are opting for smart thermostats that connect to home automation or voice assistants like Google Home or Alexa.
Benefits of an infrared panel with thermostat
Combining heating and control in a single system offers several advantages. You save energy because the panel is only active when needed. You can control different rooms separately, ensuring you never heat unnecessarily. This is especially useful in homes where not all rooms are used constantly.
The thermostat also increases user comfort. You can program the temperature in advance, set automatic nighttime temperature reduction, or turn on the heating via your smartphone before you get home. In offices, this also creates a consistent, professional working atmosphere without temperature fluctuations.
Applications and combinations
An infrared panel with a thermostat is suitable for any room. In the bathroom, it provides direct heat and safe operation, while in the living room ensures a constant temperature with minimal energy consumption. For home offices, you can easily combine it with a desk panel or standing panel for targeted, customized heat.
Many users also connect their panel with thermostat to a panel with lighting or ceiling model to bring heat, light and automation together in one smart system.
Power and settings
The panels are available in various wattages, usually between 350 and 1000 watts . Thanks to the thermostat, you'll never use more energy than necessary. Some models even measure the surface temperature of the wall or floor for even more precise control. The temperature can be adjusted to the nearest degree, and many systems offer weekly programs or remote control via Wi-Fi.
Our experts recommend always mounting the thermostat in a well-ventilated location, out of the direct beam of the panel. This ensures reliable measurements and efficient system operation.
