Hi all. Hopefully this isn’t a stupid question. Just setting up a homey pro for the first time, and am wondering what the the best way is to configure my heating. I’ve got a bunch of TKHome thermostats (zwave). I’ve added one and can change the set point and see the current temperature. I can’t s…

[image] Rmb: I was thinking the relais was a thing on your heater, you had to close or open a circuit to control it. I think I’ve worked out how to do it now. I’ve created a virtual socket, with the type “heater”. This is in the same zone as the VThermostat, and is being switched on/off at th…

TKBhome you mean I guess? You can report issues at Github for this particular app, please follow the links to app support. Find them at the bottom of the homey.app store app page

Ok. So you would consider it an app problem - I’ll report that specific bug for the on/off. How about controlling central heating in general. I have other non-TKBHome thermostats in the network as well. Is there a generic way of controlling central heating more globally?

You can try the vThermo app . [image] [APP][PRO] VThermo Apps Virtual thermostat and humidity app Link to app store . Device: VThermo Add a virtual thermostat to a zone with a temperature sensor and it will turn on / off heaters in the same zone. The virtual t…

Thanks for the advice. Is there any docs on that heating app? I have a relay that needs switching on when the heating is switched on. I can’t see how to setup a flow to do that with the heating app. I only see “when heating mode changed”, which doesn’t seem like enough control.

YW. Did you follow the link to the VThermo app topic? Usually info and howto’s should be present that app topic.

[image] DrChaos: I can’t see how to switch the thermostat on and off though. What do you mean by switching on/off a thermostat.? What does that do? Edit: switching on/off the week program of the thermostat, I think. By making an advanced virtual device you can see all temperatures.

[image] Rmb: What do you mean by switching on/off a thermostat.? We switch our thermostats off over night, rather than lowering the temperature. The thermostats are zwave and have a thermostat_mode command as well as a change_set_point.

[image] Rmb: Use a Fibaro Smart Implant or similar device to control a relais. I don’t know why I need an additional device. The relay switches the boiler and pump on and off. The thermostat measures the room temp and calls for the boiler and pump when it needs to relative to the set point. T…
