Take at least a quarter off the heating bill — without anyone getting cold
Most heating systems run blind: they do not know that tomorrow turns mild, that this room has been empty for three days, or that electricity costs twice as much between eight and ten. A smart heating system knows all three. EZYsmart puts your boiler, heat pump, radiators and sensors under one brain that heats each room by its real occupancy, the weather forecast and the market price. The result is typically at least a quarter off the bill — and not one morning of somebody complaining about the cold.
One brain for the boiler, the heat pump and every room
Heating that knows tomorrow’s weather
The system uses a blended, multi-source forecast to start warming ahead of a cold snap and stop ahead of a thaw — instead of reacting once the thermometer has already fallen. The building’s thermal inertia starts working for you: the same indoor temperature is reached with less energy, because the heating runs ahead of the weather rather than chasing it.
Room-level control driven by real use
Every room gets its own schedule, and sensors say whether anyone is actually there. A warehouse that only needs frost protection, a meeting room used twice a week and a workshop occupied from eight every day no longer share one setting — and an empty room stops being heated to full temperature because somebody forgot.
Market price and load shifting
Electric heating, the heat pump and the water tank run in the cheaper hours and coast through the expensive ones. Whatever can store heat — a floor slab, a tank, a buffer — is charged in advance during cheap hours, so the priciest hours are simply skipped. Comfort stays the same; only the moment the energy is bought changes.
You see the saving, not a promise
Reports show consumption per room, per day and per degree-day, so the saving holds up against a colder winter, not just against last year’s bill. The same view catches faults early: a boiler running longer than usual, a radiator that never warms, or a window left open during heating hours raises an alert before it becomes a month-end surprise.
A whole building where the warmth arrives before the people
Picture a commercial building with an office, a warehouse and two rarely used meeting rooms. It used to run on one thermostat holding all four at the same temperature all winter, because anything else left someone cold in the morning. Now each room has its own story. The office starts warming at six, because the system knows both the schedule and that last night was colder than forecast, so the climb will take longer than usual. The warehouse holds five degrees and only rises when the forecast threatens a frost that would reach water-filled equipment. The meeting rooms stay cold until a booking appears in the calendar — then they warm to be ready exactly on time. On Friday evening the forecast promises a thaw by Sunday, so Saturday’s heating is dropped and the building drifts into the milder weather on its own. Throughout, the controller watches the exchange price and charges the floor slab and the water tank overnight, skipping the morning price peak. Nobody touched a setting by hand, no room was cold while it was in use — and the bill came in a quarter lower.

Smart heating — answers
Where does the “at least a quarter” saving actually come from?
From three places, and none of them means a colder building. The first is no longer overheating empty or rarely used rooms: in most buildings, spaces occupied a couple of hours a week are heated all winter to the same temperature as the busiest office. The second is using the forecast — when the system knows tomorrow turns mild, or that tonight will be colder than usual, it can heat ahead or let the building coast, instead of chasing the cooling curve. The third is the market price: shifting heating and hot water into cheaper hours does not change the kilowatt-hours consumed, it changes what they cost. Together that is at least a quarter in a typical Estonian commercial building, and often more when the starting point was one thermostat for the whole place. We calculate the exact figure from your real bills and rooms — a generic percentage is worthless if your baseline is already good.
Do I have to replace my existing boiler or heat pump?
Usually not. The platform is brand-independent and speaks to most common boilers, air-to-air and air-to-water heat pumps, electric and underfloor heating and thermostats — it gives the existing equipment a new brain rather than replacing it. If a unit is old enough to have no control interface at all, we add a relay or controller that gives it the same capability. Replacement only comes up when the existing equipment is so inefficient that a new one would pay for itself — and then we say so with numbers rather than a sales pitch. The practical advantage is that saving money does not require a large capital project: the control layer typically costs a fraction of a new heating system and still delivers most of the saving.
Will people end up cold if the system decides for itself?
No, because the system does not decide comfort — you do. You set what each room’s comfortable temperature is and when it is needed; the system only decides how to get there most cheaply. That is exactly the difference from a timer: a timer switches the heat on at six and hopes for the best, while smart control calculates how early it must start so that eight o’clock is right even after an unusually cold night. Rooms used irregularly get logic driven by access, bookings or motion, so they warm before the person arrives rather than after. And because reports show each room’s actual temperature hour by hour, a complaint becomes checkable: you can see whether the room was genuinely cold or only felt that way. In practice complaints fall, because both overheating and underheating become visible.
Does it work for a housing association or across several buildings?
Yes, and with several buildings the win is usually biggest. The same platform holds every site in one view, so a manager can see at a glance which building consumes more per degree-day than the others — that single comparison usually finds the unbalanced ventilation, the open window or the badly set heating curve that has been burning money for years. In a housing association the same logic runs communal heating, ventilation and stairwell warmth, and the board gets a transparent report that makes the decision at the general meeting easier. Access is role-based, so the manager, the board and the maintenance contractor each see what belongs to them. Because the interfaces are open, consumption data also flows into your existing management or accounting system without manual exports.
How long does installation take and how disruptive is it?
A typical commercial installation is one day, often less, and it does not require the heating to be off for more than a couple of hours. The work is mostly adding a control layer to what exists: a controller in the boiler room, sensors in the rooms, and configuration on the platform. For a larger building or a site with several boilers we survey first and propose a phased plan, so the first savings start before the whole building is covered. The first couple of weeks after go-live are a tuning period: the system learns the building’s thermal inertia while we adjust schedules with you, so comfort is settled before we start maximising savings. By the end of that period you have a report showing consumption before and after — and from then on it runs without you.
