Comparing with floor heating, the fan coil system is essentially a completely watery system. Fan Coil Unit includes a fan and a coil which are used for heating and cooling and these units need a thermostat to be controlled. If there is a single coil in the fan coil used, the system is called 2 pipes fan coil system.  Two pipes circulate in the system making distribution and collection. A distribution pipe and a collection pipe are connected to each fan coil unit. In this case, either cold water or hot water can be circulated throughout the system.   If there are two separate pipes as heating and cooling in the fan coil, the installed system is called a four-pipe fan coil system. Four pipes circulate in the system, making two distributions and two collecting. Two distribution pipes and two collector pipes are connected to each fan coil unit. Cold water circulates independently in one of the pipe pairs and hot water in the other. Therefore, heating and cooling can be done simultaneously in each fan coil unit independently of each other. Compared to the 2 pipes, the 4 pipes are more complex but easier for the water management.Since fan coil systems operate in heating and cooling, it is required to perform heating or cooling in summer or winter periods. In this case, we will normally introduce the  change-over sensor which is used to detect water temperature (to judge winter or summer). In General situation, heating or cooling mode selection can be made manually. When heating mode selected; If the room temperature falls below the set temperature, the fan coil is activated and tries to heat the environment. In cooling mode, if the room temperature rises above the set temperature, the fan coil is activated and tries to cool the environment.Where are the fan coil thermostats installed?Fan coil systems used in commercial buildings such as hospitals, hotels, shopping malls and business centers operate in two types. These systems, called 2-pipe and 4-pipe, directly affect the comfort and energy savings of the users.Based on different applications, Modbus/Bacnet/KNX protocol based fan coil thermostat is needed for different installations.

A fan coil thermostat is a device that regulates the air temperature in a fan coil system.which is a type of heating and cooling system. The FCU consists of a coils, fans, and a thermostat. The fan coil thermostat controls the speed of the fans and the temperature of the coils in order to maintain the target room temperature. It regulates the temperature of air in a room by controlling the speed of a fan. The thermostat monitors the temperature of the air and turns the fan on or off as needed to maintain the desired temperature. Typically, The fan coil thermostat is mounted on the wall near the ceiling in a room and has a classical display that shows the current temperature.There are some benefits to use a fan coil system compared to other HVAC installations,Comfort: By evenly distributing heat or cool air throughout a space, fan coil thermostats can help create a more comfortable environment.Energy Savings: By ensuring that your HVAC system is only running when necessary, you can save money on your energy bills.Increased Lifespan: By preventing your HVAC system from working harder than necessary, you can help extend its lifespan.Installation step to a fan coil thermostat:First, shut off the power to your fan coil unit at the breaker box. Next, remove the old thermostat by unscrewing it from the wall. Be sure to save the screws so you can use them to secure the new thermostat.Now, take your new thermostat and position it on the wall where the old one was located. Use the screws to secure it in place. Once the new thermostat is in place, turn on the power to your fan coil unit and test it out to make sure it is working properly. To summarize,Fan coil thermostats are an important part of a home’s heating and cooling system. They allow you to control the temperature in each room, giving you more flexibility when it comes to your comfort level. E-Top has been devort ourselves to the development of fan coil t-stat and we could offer different communication integration to the complex systems.

Floor heating + fan coil system is a system that combines two heating and cooling methods of floor heating and fan coil, which can switch heating or cooling modes according to different seasons and needs, providing a more comfortable and energy-saving indoor environment. In order to better control the floor heating + fan coil system, the intelligent thermostat is an essential equipment, which can remotely control and monitor the operating status of the floor heating + fan coil system through mobile phone application, voice assistant, Internet or other means, which has the following advantages:   • Improve comfort: The smart thermostat can set different temperatures and wind speeds according to different rooms and time periods, and can also automatically adjust the temperature and wind speed to adapt to changes in indoor and outdoor environments. The intelligent thermostat can also match the floor heating + fan coil system to provide constant temperature, constant humidity, constant pressure and other functions.   • Reduce energy consumption: The intelligent thermostat can control the operation of the floor heating + fan coil system according to actual demand, avoiding excessive heating or cooling, thereby saving energy. The intelligent thermostat can also improve the efficiency of the floor heating + fan coil system by optimizing parameters such as water supply temperature, fan speed, valve opening, etc.   • Reduce energy consumption: The intelligent thermostat can control the operation of the floor heating + fan coil system according to actual demand, avoiding excessive heating or cooling, thereby saving energy. The intelligent thermostat can also improve the efficiency of the floor heating + fan coil system by optimizing parameters such as water supply temperature, fan speed, valve opening, etc.   • Increased flexibility: The smart thermostat can support multiple types of floor heating + fan coil systems, such as 2-pipe, 4-pipe, 2-pipe + 2-stage heating, etc. The smart thermostat can also support wired or wireless connectivity, as well as 230 volt or 24 volt power supply. The smart thermostat can also be linked with other smart home devices to achieve more functions   Our smart floor heating + fan coil system thermostat will be available soon, so stay tuned!
