    Hei,Have you looked at Panels, Heating Panel ?

    I have set up all my termos in this, with day and night- comfort and energy saving values.

    I have also created separate scenes for each room/ device that will turn off the heating and send push notifications if the temperature is over predefined, ( wanted to protect my wooden floor in case of unwanted changes by users).. This could also be changed to energy saving mode instead of OFF, if you termostat supports it ?

     

    By experience i know that floor heating will not automatically reach a set temperature until the floor mass ( concrete) has absorbed the effekt of the heating cable. This can take some time , depending on thickness and laying height of heating cable. Immediate response with PIR , is this a wall heater ??

    Hello, I got heating cables and wooden floor. Only entrance and bath has stone floor.

    i use heat it thermostat newest version. 

    I do use now heating panel again since today but I’m missing a own schedule settings if I like to set the home away or at work. I do believe the heating panel will overwrite my scene in that case. 

    I use to set temperature down when room temperature is 22 c by pir sensor.

    Hei, check this:

    only found it tonight. seems to work just fine..

    I would recommend always using the built in temp sensor that is directly connected to your heating cables. Measuring the heat at a Pir sensor, or at a height of lets say 1,5 meters will give you a measurement of heat in that area, i.e. all the air at 1,5 meters. Remember the hottest air is at the top so the measured temp of the pir will be slightly lower. This pir measurement will be higher than the floor heat and thus capable of destroying your flooring. 

    You can combine floor sensor and room sensor if you thermostat supports this function. Go to thermofloor and read their recommendations.

    I got the newest heat it thermostats they are good ones but there is one thing that sucks on these is that u can not set a temperature offset more than +-4 C this makes the room sensor unusefull.... never seen a product with this lack of function.

    The neweset version dont got a build inn room sensor, but anyway i manege to connect then even hiding behind a switch. But offsett is needed on some places by 10 C.

    All non z wave thermostats got built inn room sensors. dont know why heatit got such a problem with this.

    I am aware of limiting floor sensor to 27 C this is why u can sett a maxminun temperature on all thermostat.

    Thanks for your link.
