Home automation systems are becoming more and more common, simplifying our lives and making our homes just that much more comfortable.

Escea’s fireplaces are the first in New Zealand that are capable of connecting with most home automation systems.  Each fireplace comes with a basic interface and wire connections, which can be installed by a qualified technician.  Additionally, comprehensive control over local IP is possible with drivers already developed by a number of control system brands.  The supplied Escea remote is still the thermostatic control and the fireplace will operate on the temperature that is set on the remote.

In addition, the DL Series and DX Series fireplaces offer Smart Heat Technology via an online web platform or smartphone app.  Escea’s Smart Heat system is convenient and easy to use. Fireplace controls can be accessed straight from the Escea app when you are within range of your home’s wifi network or alternatively you can use it to send a command directly to your fireplace anywhere, anytime. 

Escea fireplaces (DL850, DL1100, DX1000 and DX1500) monitor the temperature of the room and adjust it accordingly based on the requested room temperature. The fireplace automatically modifies the heat output and air fan to ensure no energy is wasted – all while staying whisper-quiet.  Already 90% energy efficient with five star energy ratings, the Escea Smart Heat system allows its fireplaces to be even more efficient.

The Escea Smart Heat system makes heating easier, and combined with a home automation system, makes life easier.
