With push-to-pair, up to five Homematic IP devices can be connected without central control units. This user-friendly technology requires no additional access point or other hardware. Nevertheless, it offers you the option - by adding a Homematic IP access point - to expand your system to a fully-fledged smart home system with advanced functions and automation at any time.

 

Heater

With Push-to-Pair, you can quickly and easily connect your Homematic IP radiator and wall thermostats as well as window and door contacts to ensure intelligent and efficient heating control.

Example 1: Automatic heating

The radiator automatically adjusts to the current room temperature in order to reach the desired set temperature. This means that it continuously monitors the room temperature and adjusts its heat output accordingly. This ensures constant and comfortable heat at all times.

Example 2: Automatic switch-off when the window is open

The radiator switches off automatically as soon as a window is opened to save energy and avoid unnecessary heating costs. As soon as the window is closed again, the radiator resumes operation and heats the room to the previously set target temperature. This ensures efficiency and comfort.

Example 3: Weekly program for optimum heating control

With the Homematic IP weekly program, you can customize your heating control individually. Set precise heating times and desired temperatures for each day of the week so that your home is always optimally heated. Whether in the morning when you get up or in the evening after work - the weekly program ensures comfort and energy efficiency. With Push-to-Pair, you can create and change your heating profile directly on the appliances. Enjoy a warm and comfortable home.

Underfloor heating

With the combination of the motorized underfloor heating controller, the wall thermostat and the actuator, which are all connected via push-to-pair, you can implement efficient and convenient heating control.

Example 5: Self-regulating underfloor heating

The underfloor heating automatically adjusts to the current room temperature to reach the desired set temperature. Thanks to the intelligent control, each room is optimally heated without the need for manual intervention, ensuring continuous comfort and energy efficiency.

Example 6: Permanent use or construction site phase

The systems can be used permanently to increase living comfort and use energy efficiently. They offer reliable heating control that adapts perfectly to everyday life and guarantees comfortable warmth at all times. They are also ideal for bridging the construction phase until you move in, as they enable effective heating control even without the internet.
