Netatmo Connected thermostatic heads for radiators
- Ergonomics
- Convenience of use
- Application
Easy to install and configure via the app, the Netatmo connected thermostatic heads won us over. They are particularly useful for managing the temperature of your home room by room on the time slots of your choice and without going around all your radiators. Do not expect substantial energy savings from these valves if you are already very committed to the reasonable management of your radiators. It is above all the practical aspect that prevails here.
Strong points
- Easy to install thermostatic heads.
- Only one tool required: a precision screwdriver (and again, just for some valves).
- Complete and easy-to-program management application.
- Finely adjustable temperature in half-degree increments.
Weak points
- The bill climbs rapidly with the number of radiators.
- Fairly bulky thermostatic heads.
- No remote temperature measurement.

Heatzy Driver
Introductory price 50 €
- Convenience of use
- Application
The small Heatzy Pilote box allows you to effectively control your electric heating from your smartphone; all at a lower cost and without requiring too serious technical knowledge. The ease of use is immediate. However, it will be necessary to deal with the limits of pilot wire technology which does not allow the temperature to be adjusted remotely. Despite everything, this solution seduces us with the added satisfaction of using a product designed in France.
