Control the temperature from your phone, arrive at a pre-heated cabin all winter long – and avoid frozen pipes and water damage. Cabin life should be easy and comfortable, and with Nobø Energy Control, you’ll take your cabin comfort to the next level.
– Most customers who ask us about smart heating control for their cabin are motivated by the idea of arriving at a pre-heated cabin on Friday evenings, says Arne Hoseth, product manager at Nobø, one of Norway’s leading companies in heating control.
He recommends cabin owners to choose Nobø Energy Control, a solution for electric heating that’s designed to give full control over all heating management in the cabin.
– After a while, most people realize that smart heating control has many more benefits than they originally thought, he says.
Here are Arne’s 5 top reasons why you should choose smart heating control for your cabin:
1. You’ll arrive at a warm and cozy cabin.
The week has been long, the drive up to the mountains just as much, and you finally arrive at the cabin on a late and freezing January evening. That’s when you deserve to sink into the sofa – without your winter coat on.
– With the Nobø Energy Control app, you can easily turn up the heat a few hours before you leave, says Arne Hoseth.
2. It’s easy to install yourself.
Nobø’s panel heaters are built for the harsh Norwegian climate, with frequent temperature changes and cold winters – especially important if your cabin is located in the mountains.
– In addition, they’re easy to install yourself, and just as easy to get them to “talk” to the app, he explains:
- Mount the panel heaters and connect the Nobø Hub to the cabin’s internet.
- Download the Nobø Energy Control app to your phone.
- Pair the Nobø Hub with the heaters you want, and control them from anywhere in the world.
Pro tip:Do you already have electric underfloor heating? An electrician can easily connect aNobø NTB 2Rfloor heating thermostat to integrate the floor heating with Nobø Energy Control. Contact your electrician for a quote.
3. Full control from your phone.
The classic method for making the cabin arrival a bit more pleasant has been to use solutions like “Ring the cabin warm.” If you choose to upgrade to a modern solution, you use the existing internet connection at the cabin.
– This allows you to do more than just turn on a single heater. The solution lets you control multiple panel heaters and manage the heating in different rooms. If your cabin doesn’t have internet, you can use mobile broadband instead, explains the product manager.
- Set weekly schedules
- Create different heating zones
- Control the cabin remotely, no matter where you are
4. Always the right temperature
Temperature fluctuations outside make it difficult to find the right indoor temperature. When it gets cold, we turn up the panel heaters, only to have to air out the room a bit later.
– This is typical for many Norwegian cabins with old heaters. We recommend investing in panel heaters that are “smart” – heaters that “learn” from their surroundings and maintain a stable temperature. With Nobø panel heaters, you get the most accurate thermostat on the market, says Arne Hoseth.
5. You save money!
Smart heating control helps you avoid unnecessary energy consumption while still maintaining a cozy and comfortable indoor climate. You decide which rooms or zones should be heated at specific times and can lower the temperature at night. When you’re not at the cabin, you can keep a slight heat going, preventing frozen pipes.
– Our experience shows that you can save up to 25 percent on your heating costs by installing smart heating control, concludes product manager Arne Hoseth.
