Better

I had to update my heater because it died after two years. After installing the new heater and starting the app I was very pleased to see the app has a lot more functionality and is much better to use. I still don’t like having to turn on location! Shouldn’t be required.

Heating in horse float.

App and unit work well. Pump is a little noisey but for the money it’s definitely worth it. Very happy with the whole setup.

Requires tracking your location

There is no reason this app should need your location besides selling data

Basic but works

Replaced a previous app for diesel heater - it works but the writing is far too small and functions very limited
