Danfoss the world’s largest manufacturer of energy-saving equipment for heating systems has introduced in America a new electronic thermostat Living Eco, which can “switch” a heating radiator to the desired temperature mode in 3 minutes. Thanks to which the savings in heating energy can reach 46 percent.
It has an electromechanical controller in contrast to the traditional direct-acting thermoregulators . Thanks to this thermostat has the unique ability to respond to changes in indoor air temperature in just three minutes. The operation of the electric motor of the device is absolutely silent!
The developers have given this gadget some more useful functions. For example, when airing the room when the room temperature drops, the device automatically closes without additional commands from the user.
