Take control of your bills with Heatapp! For the first time, you can be in complete control of the way you use your heating. It’s great to have the best performing electric heating system, but everyone knows, power is nothing without control. We have created the worlds first intuitive heating control system, which lets you, the user; take your heating to the next level. Without clumsy dials and buttons, our clean and simple flat screen display couldn’t make it easier for you to set your everyday hating preferences or make quick changes and updates from wherever you are. From turning your heating off temporarily when you leave the house, or even adjusting temperature from your sofa, the limits of how you can take control of your bills are endless. Why pay for heat that you don’t need? You turn the lights in your house off when you go out, so why not the heating? You can do everything from a simple downloaded app that works in conjunction with our Elkatherm radiator system. From turning your heating on and off, adjusting the temperature, setting individual programmes for each separate room of your house to suit you and keeping an eye on your settings from anywhere in the world, Heatapp gives YOU the control.
