domotinc-customs Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 Hi all, I'm looking for a convector heaters thermostat that will work with isy994i. Is there any? Can I manage multiple thermostat? Link to comment
stusviews Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 You can use any conventional thermostat with an Aube relay Link to comment
domotinc-customs Posted March 20, 2017 Author Share Posted March 20, 2017 thanks for the reply. I want to be able to control temperature remotely (mobilinc) and have program in the ISY994 that would increase and/or reduce temperature. I have been looking around for 30 minutes on the aube relay and I can't find how it would work. can you provide me more information/links that would explain how it works? thanks! Link to comment
stusviews Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 Convection heating uses line voltage, 110/120VAC or 220240VAC. Standard thermostats control 24VAC systems. Any standard thermostat connects to the Aube relay. The Aube relays are available with or without 24VAC available. If you are also controlling air conditioning, then you already have 24VAC, otherwise you'll need the Aube relay with the 24VAC power supply. Any standard thermostat connects to the Auble relay. When heat is called for, the Aube relay switches line voltage on (or off, depending on the setpoint) to control the heating system. The ISY can natively control an Insteon thermostat. If you have or add the Z-Wave module, then you can choose nearly any Z-Wave thermostat. I'm not aware of any Insteon or Z-Wave thermostat that can control line voltage, but there are WiFi thermostats that can. Link to comment
glacier991 Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 (edited) There are Z Wave thermostats for baseboard line voltage heaters. Stelpro is one manufacturer. Edited March 20, 2017 by glacier991 Link to comment
