OpenTherm<\/a> is a communication protocol born in 1996 to make boilers, air conditioners, and thermostats communicate with each other, even from different manufacturers. The advantage of OpenTherm<\/a> is maximum compatibility: the devices are able to exchange information relating to room temperature, flame modulation in specific boilers, thus overcoming the simple on\/off state of the system.<\/p>\n

What changes for comfort?<\/h2>\n

As we know, the comfort in home or office can greatly improve thanks to a more accurate control, adaptable to the needs of the end customer, the time of day and the people present in. But sometimes a simple programming of the chronothermostat<\/a> or a home automation system<\/a> is not enough. It is necessary that all the devices involved “speak the same language”, so as to ensure greater control, less wear on the devices, and significant energy savings.<\/p>\n

By installing devices that communicate with each other thanks to OpenTherm, a more targeted response to requests for heating and cooling is achieved.<\/p>\n

The benefits for the consumer<\/h2>\n

By reducing the boiler ignitions, the first advantage is undoubtedly the energy-saving, estimated at about 4% in the bill. And its reliability over time and the life cycle of the product are also increased.<\/p>\n

Another important factor is remote control: not only the current situation, programming, breakdowns, but also during assistance, to which any error codes can be transmitted, both from the thermostat and from the boiler.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, since OpenTherm<\/a> is a transversal protocol, there is the possibility of having more choice among the different manufacturers: it is in fact possible to choose different brands of boiler, air conditioner, and thermostat depending on aesthetic, functional, and practical factors related to the offer on the market, destined to progressively increase.<\/p>\n

IMIT and OpenTherm<\/h2>\n

For all these reasons, we are thrilled to inform you that the OpenTherm<\/a> protocol is now available on our new IMIT Orion<\/span><\/a>, and that we are working to adapt all production to this important “language of comfort”.<\/p>\n

IMIT is committed day by day to promote new technologies of climatic comfort<\/a>, through a series of products dedicated to renewable energy<\/a>, efficient programming of home and office comfort<\/a>, and accurate control of the thermal plant<\/a>, for the protection of our planet.<\/p>\n

To find out more, Or, browse our site<\/a>, download our catalog<\/a> or consult a preview of the instruction manuals<\/a> of our products for home<\/a> and office comfort to find the one that best suits you.
