Home automation for heat pumps.
In an increasingly connected world, automation and the Internet of Things (IoT) have become an integral part of our lives. One of the most notable examples of home automation for heat pumps is the “TST” Smart Thermostat from Efitherma. What started as a heat pump controller with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth capabilities through its own app (EFI SmartApp), has evolved to become a next-generation device with touch screen, heat pump control and technology. inverter In this blog article, we will explore the history of how the TST was made and the technologies that power it as well as its best features.
1. The beginning of the smart thermostat "TST".
The first iteration of the “TST” came as a heat pump controller equipped with a digit display and the ability to connect via Wi-Fi and Bluetooth using our dedicated app, EFI SmartApp. This starting point marked the beginning of an exciting journey towards creating a cutting-edge smart thermostat with added heating control capabilities.
2. Evolutions over time.
The TST has undergone a series of significant evolutions over time. These evolutions were made with the aim of providing users with a more complete and advanced temperature control experience. Some of the notable milestones in the evolution of TST include:

3. Technology used:
3.1. SmartGate Cloud: The reliable engine that powers your "TST" smart thermostat and your business.
Our “SmartGate Cloud” platform is the reliable engine that supports the performance of the TST Smart Thermostat, providing uninterrupted access. For partner companies that offer our products to their customers, “SmartGate Cloud” becomes an essential solution.
This solution ensures that the TST Smart Thermostat operates smoothly and reliably, which is essential for partner companies who want to provide their customers with efficient control over the heating and heat pump in their homes. Our platform ensures that your customers get a seamless experience, strengthening your relationship with them and building trust in your company. In addition, thanks to real-time data and exclusive access to its installers, you will be able to provide the best support to your customers.
3.2. Efficient communication in real time.
Communication is essential in an IoT device like the “TST”. MQTT is used to facilitate communication between the TST and other devices, such as smartphones and servers. MQTT is especially suitable for IoT due to its efficiency and ability to handle large volumes of data in real time. This allows the TST to provide a responsive user experience and instant updates on the status of the equipment.
3.3. APPS for iOS and Android.
The TST Smart Thermostat adapts to the needs of modern users by offering dedicated applications for both iOS and Android devices. These apps allow users to control their heating system and heat pump from their mobile devices with ease. In addition to basic temperature control functions, these apps can also offer important notifications and alerts, giving users full control over their HVAC (heating, ventilation and air conditioning) system from anywhere.
3.4. EFI SmartApp and it's advanced features
The EFI SmartApp is an essential part of the TST Smart Thermostat ecosystem. In addition to basic temperature control functions, it offers a number of advanced features that improve the user experience and increase the efficiency of the heating and heat pump system:
Real-time adjustments and monitoring
The EFI SmartApp offers customizable settings that allow users to tailor the operation of their HVAC system to their specific needs. Additionally, it provides real-time monitoring of equipment status and temperature in the home, allowing users to make real-time adjustments as needed.
Equipment status history
The ability to access equipment health history provides users with valuable information about the past performance of their HVAC system. This can help spot trends and track operating hours, which can be helpful for maintenance and future planning.
Remote update
The ability to update the TST Smart Thermostat firmware and software remotely is an important feature that ensures the device is always up to date with the latest improvements. This eliminates the need for physical interventions and ensures that the device continues to function optimally over time.
Alarm history to identify problems
The alarm history feature allows users to track and review previous events related to their HVAC system. This is invaluable for identifying potential problems and taking preventive measures before they become more serious problems. Access to a detailed alarm log can help users keep their system in optimal condition.
