Fan coils, split units and underfloor heating on the same bus as the lighting, with a thermostat per zone and setbacks that stop the house cooling rooms nobody is in.
Best device on the market, specified and commissioned by us. We answer for compatibility, not for the badge on it.
Bedrooms and majlis separately; corridors and stores grouped.
Away and night profiles per zone, tuned again at the first-year visit once the house has been lived in.
Readings in bathrooms and plant rooms, with alarms in the app.
A scene can move both, so “away” means cooling back and circuits off in one action.
We do not supply or move mechanical plant. We control what your HVAC contractor installs, and we need their valve and fan-coil schedule before we can commit to a zone count.
A villa usually runs more than one kind of plant, and they are controlled differently. Which ones you have decides the zone count and the interface, so it is worth naming them early.
Usual in larger new builds on chilled water. A valve and a fan speed per zone, which is what lets a guest room be held at a setback instead of being conditioned for nobody.
Controlled over the manufacturer's own bus rather than a dry contact, so the app shows the real setpoint and mode instead of guessing at them.
Slow to respond, so it is scheduled rather than switched — a setback that starts at the right hour matters more here than anywhere else in the house.
Ventilation rate and humidity read per zone. In this climate the complaint is almost never temperature; it is a room at 24 degrees and 70% relative humidity.
Each of these is a coordination item, not a preference. Left to the end, they become a variation order.
One motorised valve equals one zone. If the mechanical drawing has four valves, the house has four zones, whatever the lighting plan implies — we need that schedule before we can quote a zone count honestly.
A sensor on a wall in direct afternoon sun reads five degrees high and the room is cooled to compensate. Position is agreed on site, not on the drawing.
Three degrees back is invisible and saves little; six is a real saving and takes forty minutes to recover. We set it per zone with you rather than applying one number to the house.
Cooling dehumidifies as a side effect, so a well-zoned house that runs less can end up damper. Rooms that need it get humidity read and a dedicated strategy.
Fan coils on Modbus and splits on a proprietary bus can both work, but each interface is a physical device in a board. Deciding late means finding board space late.
What we commit to in writing, so it can be checked against a drawing rather than taken on trust.
Forty minutes, free, no obligation. You will get the fitting count we would use, where the light falls short, and a straight answer about whether you need us at all.
