Pierre allows precise control over gas boilers, ensuring optimal heating performance and energy efficiency. By integrating the gas boiler with the Pierre system, users can automate and remotely manage their heating needs.
Key Features:
1. On/Off Control:
• The Pierre controller can remotely turn the gas boiler on or off, allowing users to control heating based on current needs or predefined schedules.
2. Temperature Regulation:
• The system can adjust the boiler’s heating output based on temperature sensors integrated into the Pierre system. This ensures that the gas boiler only runs when necessary, helping to conserve energy and maintain consistent temperatures.
3. Automation & Scheduling:
• The gas boiler can be integrated into automated scenarios and schedules. For example, Pierre can automatically activate the boiler during colder times of the day or deactivate it when the desired temperature is reached.
4. Safety Features:
• Pierre’s integration includes safety mechanisms, such as monitoring for malfunctions or alerts in case of abnormal operation. This ensures the boiler operates safely and efficiently at all times.
5. Energy Efficiency:
• By using Pierre’s smart automation, the gas boiler runs only when needed, significantly reducing energy consumption and enhancing overall system efficiency.
This integration ensures that users can enjoy efficient, reliable, and smart control over their gas boiler, enhancing comfort and convenience

What happens if there is a power outage?
If the power goes out, smart devices will retain their last state and resume functionality when power is restored. For critical devices, battery backups can be used to maintain operation during an outage.
Is a thermostat required?
No, a classic thermostat is not necessary. Instead, a temperature sensor integrated with the PIERRE system can monitor the room’s temperature and manage the heating/cooling devices accordingly.
Does Pierre have its own thermostat?
Yes, PIERRE offers its own smart thermostats, which can be found in the thermostat product category.
If I remove an old thermostat, can I replace it with a PIERRE display for heating control?
Yes, you can replace an old thermostat with a PIERRE display, as long as the display includes a temperature sensor for temperature monitoring.
Can a display work as a thermostat?
Yes, most Pierre displays have built-in temperature sensors and can control heating/cooling systems just like a thermostat. All displays have relays that can send signals to heating/cooling devices to turn them on or off.
Can I adjust different temperatures in different rooms?
Yes, you can control the temperature room by room.
In a multi-apartment system, how should the circulation pump be controlled?
The circulation pump’s operation is based on automation, so if the valve in any apartment’s floor heating system is activated, it simultaneously activates the circulation pump. If separate control is needed, it can only be handled locally within the apartment.
Regarding heating and cooling, how can I set it up later to ensure the requested hot or cold water reaches each apartment? How can I start the circulation pump per apartment?
Starting from the apartments, the process works as follows: humidity and temperature values are measured in the apartments. To reach the desired temperature, we control the distribution manifolds in the apartments. The circulation pumps for each floor are turned on when any apartment’s distribution manifold valve is open.
Can we program PIERRE so that the valve opens at a given temperature and the pump starts in the valve open position?
Yes, this can be solved per manifold. Alternatively, PIERRE can be programmed so that the valve opens at a certain temperature and the pump starts when the valve is in the open position.
How will the heat pump be connected to the PIERRE system?
The heat pump can be controlled by PIERRE in two ways:
- Winter and summer modes can be switched via a potential-free contact, and a similar contact can be used for starting and stopping the heat pump (start/stop function).
- Modbus RTU communication. It’s important to consult the manufacturer or distributor in advance about the Modbus register addresses and required documentation based on the heat pump model to ensure the proper control process.
What equipment can be controlled by the PIERRE system for starting heat pumps, hot water tanks, and motorized valves in underfloor heating zones?
The motorized valves for underfloor heating zones can be controlled without any issues by the PIERRE system, whether they are On-Off or 0-10V valves. In the mechanical room, the PIERRE system handles the following controls: winter-summer mode switching via a potential-free contact, circulation pump control, hot water circulation pump control, and 0-10V mixing valve control with supply water temperature measurement.
