All features of Eve Thermo
The multi award-winning Eve Thermo smart radiator valve is quick and easy to install and set up. And with a bit of fine-tuning, it can unleash all the convenience that connected heating has to offer. Read on for a detailed overview of all the functions Eve Thermo offers.
Now supports Thread
The fourth generation of Eve Thermo, which is available since autumn 2020, now also supports Thread along with Bluetooth. Eve Thermo joins your Thread network automatically, which makes your smart home network more responsive and robust, plus it increases its reach.
Thread accessories don’t need a proprietary bridge to communicate with each other – they simply need a Border Router, which for HomeKit over Thread is HomePod mini or the new Apple TV 4K. Battery-operated Thread accessories, such as Eve Thermo, represent endpoints in your Thread network. Discover all you need to know about HomeKit over Thread here.
You can add Thread support to your latest-generation Eve Thermo simply by updating the accessory’s firmware. Discover if your Eve Thermo can support Thread by visiting evehome.com/identify. Installing the firmware is simply a matter of opening the Eve app and tapping Accessories > [Eve Thermo].
Heating via an app, touch controls and Siri
You can control your heating using the Eve and Home apps or simply ask Siri to make your room warmer, set it at a specific temperature or stop heating.
Siri control
- for your whole home: "Hey Siri, set the temperature to 21 degrees."
- room by room: "Hey Siri, set the bathroom to 23 degrees."
- within a zone: "Hey Siri, set the temperature in the first floor to 21 degrees."
- as part of a scene: "Hey Siri, good night!"
Plus, you also enjoy granular control of your heating in increments of 0.5°C on the smart radiator valve itself.
Scheduled heating designed around you
Eve Thermo is built around schedules, which are a really simple and effective way to control your Eve accessories. They’re also a breeze to create using the Eve app – and once you’ve done that, they’re stored automatically on your Eve Thermo so your accessory can set about controlling your heating completely autonomously and all independently of your iPhone and an internet connection.
Each room in your home requires a different temperature, and even that temperature should change to suit the time of day: You want it nice and warm in your bathroom early in the morning, followed by your living room a little later on as well as in the evening. Your bedroom should be set to a constant 17 degrees. Plus, you may also want to take into account that you like to doze under the duvet for that bit longer on Sundays and that the kids arrive home earlier on Thursdays. Sounds complicated, right? Well, using schedules means you’ll get everything fine-tuned to suit your routine in a flash.
You can create a custom schedule for each room in the Eve app, plus you can set the comfort and economy temperature for the room in question. You can then configure the various schedules for workdays and the weekend, or individually for each day – or even for all days. Each schedule offers 3 heating phases such as mornings, afternoons, and evenings.
The "Days Off Calendar" function accesses a calendar chosen by you on your iPhone (such as "Holidays") and ensures that the weekend schedule is run on days which are public holidays – all without you having to lift a single finger.
By the way: Even if a schedule is active, you can still adjust it via the app, Siri or manually on the accessory itself. This setting is then changed with the next scheduled temperature change.
Heating depending on if you’re leaving or arriving at home
Life doesn’t always go exactly according to plan, so to cover all of life’s little eventualities you’re best off controlling your heating using a combination of schedules and location control. At all times, you remain in full control, and your privacy continues to be protected to the highest standards.
To control your heating based on location, you need a home hub (HomePod mini, HomePod or Apple TV). This enables HomeKit to determine if everyone has left home without anyone’s location constantly being tracked, recorded, or possibly even shared. Since only the technology baked into iOS is used for this function, it saves your iPhone’s battery and also ensures a profile of your movements cannot be created – not by Eve, by Apple, nor by any other unscrupulous individual who may have gotten hold of your information through a data leak. Your and your family members’ location is always determined based on the particular device set under "Find My" in the Apple ID settings.
Location-based heating is a breeze to set up for Eve Thermo in the Automation area of the Eve app. Go to Rooms, choose Eve Thermo and Automation. There you can also choose whether to suspend schedules when nobody is home. You can also set the temperature you want maintained while your home is vacant.
When you turn on this option, the schedule will only be resumed once the first family member arrives home – meaning that when nobody’s home, your set temperature will be maintained to prevent your home cooling down too much.
If you choose not to suspend schedules, the temperature will be lowered as soon as the last person leaves home. However, the next heating phase will still be activated even if your home is vacant. This way you can be sure that your heating will be lowered even if everyone leaves home earlier than usual, yet you will still return home to a nice warm place that’s been pre-heated for you.
If you don’t want to use any schedules, you can rely exclusively on controlling your heating based on the location of all family members. With this, your heating will spring into action as soon as anyone arrives home – perfect if the room heats up again quickly or you don’t need it to be at your desired temperature immediately when you get home.
Eve Thermo in the Eve app
You can dive into Eve Thermo’s details view either by tapping the Rooms view in the Eve app or by long-pressing (or using 3D touch, if your device supports it) the particular accessory’s icon in the At a Glance view. Besides the accessory settings, the details view is the main dialog for controlling your smart radiator valve. It is divided into the General section, Target Temperature, Mode and Schedule.
General:
Tapping the small arrow on the right opens the advanced view, which includes a battery status indicator, an accessory settings icon and the identify button, which when tapped will display a “Hi” on the Eve Thermo in question. The latter is handy if you own several smart radiator valves and you want to make sure you’re in front of the right accessory when changing the batteries.
Target Temperature:
The central field of the detail view shows the current target temperature, which is the room temperature you want Eve Thermo to reach. Use the up/down buttons to adjust this value in 0.5 °C increments.
The measured temperature currently measured by the accessory can be seen on the left above the graph in the form of a thermometer/heater icon. HomeKit treats the sensor in question just like a stand-alone temperature sensor or that of a wall-mounted thermostat or air conditioner. Siri and the display in the Home and Eve apps display this value as measured. Any configured temperature offset (see below) is not included in the calculation by the accessory or app. Discrepancies between the actual and target temperature during heating are normal, as factors such as the sensor being located on the radiator instead of in the center of the room (and also the configured temperature offset), the 10-minute measurement interval and the smart radiator valve’s control algorithm play a role here. If, for instance, you want to heat up a room again that has cooled down, the temperature measured at the radiator’s fully-opened valve will initially be significantly higher than the target and actual room temperature – and don’t forget that the same temperature will be displayed for 10 minutes until it’s refreshed.
A yellow radiator icon will also be displayed above the graph when Eve Thermo is currently heating. You will see a stopwatch next to the target temperature button when a schedule is active (any manual setting will only last until this particular schedule is due to start again).
The graph will show a timeline with the progressions for the measured (gray) and target temperatures (blue). Daily highs and lows as well as the last measured temperature will be marked with dots. Tapping the small info icon will allow you to view the graph by hour, week or month. Additionally, you can stop the target temperature from being displayed in the graph, deactivate Graph Line Smoothing and access temperature readings in the list view.
Mode:
The Mode section lets you disable Eve Thermo’s heating function. The mode returns to On if you enter anything via the accessory’s touch controls or use Siri, automations or the Home app to trigger changes. However, please note that even when in the Off mode, valve descaling cycles, and a certain amount of noise in connection with that, will continue. The temperature will also continue to be measured. If radiator valves are grouped, switching off one accessory will not affect the others.
Schedule:
The current schedule stored on the accessory is displayed in the bottom-most section. It can be deactivated permanently via the On/Off button – and will stay deactivated even after the next heating phase is reached. Tapping the gear icon will take you to the schedule section with the schedules contained in the Eve app and those added by you. You’ll find an info icon next to the latter, which you can tap to bring up the schedule editor.
Settings
You’ll find all the key functions, some of which you’ll have already seen during the initial setup, in the settings for Eve Thermo (Eve > Settings > [Room] > [Eve Thermo]). Starting from the top.
Room: This is where you’ll find the room you assigned your Eve Thermo to during installation. You can change it at any time.
Name: This is the Siri name you set during the initial setup. Although entirely optional, a meaningful Siri name such as “Living Room Heating” can make controlling Eve Thermo with your voice a lot easier.
Installation: Here you can see if Eve Thermo has been installed correctly (OK). If you want to use your accessory on a different radiator in your home, but want to keep the data, tap Installation > Remove. You can now remove Eve Thermo and calibrate it at its new location. If you ended up installing the display upside down, you can change its orientation here.
Temperature Offset: As Eve Thermo connects right next to the radiator, which is often located under a windowsill, the values measured may deviate from the actual temperature in the center of the room. To compensate, you can configure a temperature offset which Eve Thermo factors in when controlling the valve. If the room temperature is lower than the measured temperature shown in the app, set the temperature offset to a negative value. For example, if your lounge is 20 °C, but Eve Thermo reports 21.5 °C, set the temperature offset to -1.5 °C. Over time, you’ll need to work towards finding the ideal temperature offset that works for the particular room.
Window Detection: If you use Eve Door & Window on a window in the room where you’re also using Eve Thermo, Eve can automatically stop heating if the window is opened for ventilation purposes. It then resumes heating once the window is shut. This type of automation requires Apple TV or a HomePod as a home hub.
Window Detection is smart: If you forget to shut the window, heating resumes automatically after 30 minutes to prevent the building from cooling down. However, you can adjust this value to suit.
Eve Thermo detects rapid drops in temperature even without a wireless contact sensor, however it’s less precise than when used in conjunction with Eve Door & Window. In this mode Eve Thermo continues to heat again after 10 minutes.
Vacation Mode: About to take a long vacation? To avoid having to adjust each radiator individually or add a different schedule, you can simply activate Vacation Mode. It’ll suspend your schedules, hold the energy-saving temperature you’ve set and prevent your home from freezing up. Here you can set whether the Eve Thermo in question should be part of the vacation scene and the temperature you want maintained. Once you’re back from vacation, simply activate the Back from Vacation scene and everything will return to normal. .
Valve Protection: Eve Thermo will open the valve fully every three weeks to prevent scale buildup. If you trigger this function manually, Eve Thermo will remember when you did so and resume automatic valve protection three weeks from that time of the day.
Temperature Unit: Choose between Celsius and Fahrenheit.
Child Lock: To prevent unwanted temperature adjustments, activate Child Lock to disable the touch controls of Eve Thermo.
ID: Tapping ID will display Hi on the Eve Thermo in question. It’s really handy if you want to identify a particular Eve Thermo accessory.
Remove Accessory: This command lets you remove a particular Eve Thermo accessory from your HomeKit configuration. You may want to do this if you intend to relocate your accessory to a different home.
Assigned to (optional): If you have assigned Eve Thermo to an Eve Extend range extender, it will also appear here in the settings.
No bridge or starter set required.
Eve Thermo works right out of the box, eliminating the need for additional accessories. Schedules are stored directly on the accessory itself, so they’re always executed without the involvement of any other devices. For automations (such as heating based on if you’re at home or away, or window detection in conjunction with Eve Door & Window), you’ll need a HomePod, HomePod mini or Apple TV as a home hub.
Increase the reach of your devices
With a HomePod mini or the new Apple TV 4K in your home, your latest-generation Thread-enabled Eve Thermo can communicate over the Thread mesh network, reaching even the farthest corners of your abode. This happens automatically without you needing to configure anything. A Full Thread Device, such as Eve Energy, Eve Light Switch or Eve Water Guard, can act as a router node and relay data packets from other Thread products, such as Eve Thermo.
To view the structure of your Thread network and see where you can make improvements, simply go to the Settings area of the Eve app and tap Thread Network. Among other things, you’ll be able to tell which nodes your Thread devices use to communicate and whether you can further improve the stability and reach of your network and devices by adding one more Full Thread Device or moving one to a better location.
Requires iOS/iPadOS 16.4 (or later) / Android™ 8.1 (or later), Matter controller / Thread Border Router

Hallo EVE-Team,Ich habe derzeit 7 EVE Thermo BJ 2020 sowie ein Thermo BJ 2015 im Einsatz. Jedes der Geräte ist mit mindestens einem EVE Door & Window zwecks Fenstererkennung verknüpft. Für die neueren Geräte kann die Heizpause von 30 min bis unbegrenzt eingestellt werden, bei dem älteren Thermo ist jedoch ein fester Wert von 30 min eingestellt, welcher nicht verändert werden kann. Könnt ihr diese Funktion per Software-Update auch für die älteren Geräte verfügbar machen?
Mit freundlichen Grüßen
Martin

Hallo Martin! Das lässt sich leider auf dem Ur-Modell nicht nachrüsten, das alte Chipset gibt das nicht her, sorry. Viele Grüße, Volker- Reply
Hallo EVE-Team,Schade, ich hatte die Vermutung dass sich dies über die EVE-App lösen lässt, da es ja möglich ist sich HomeKit-Szenen zu erstellen die das Thermostat komplett abschalten solange das Fenster offen ist, bzw. es wieder einschalten wenn der EVE Door & Window geschlossen wird.

Hallo Martin! Es liegt an der Firmware und die lässt sich beim alten Modell leider nicht aktualisieren. Einen schönen Sonntag noch, Volker- Reply
Hallo, ich habe mir den EVE Thermo 2020 zugelegt und bin schon gespannt auf die Thread Anbindung. Wird es dann möglich sein den Thermo über ein externen Temperaturfühler zu regeln ?Ich habe keine voreinstellbaren Heizungsventile und kann demnach die max. Durchflussmenge nicht begrenzen. Gibt es eine Möglichkeit den max. Öffnungsgrad des Thermos zu begrenzen ? z.B. 100% Ventilstellung gleich 50% offen
Gruß Sascha

Hallo Sascha!Zunächst einmal geht es nur um die Thread-Unterstützung und die Nutzung im Mesh-Netz. Selbst mit einer solchen Möglichkeit würde das nicht gehen, Eve Thermo regelt die Durchflussmenge komplett allein und auch ohne HomeKit. Viele Grüße, Volker

Hi - I want to have a boost-function like other vendors have. When I go to bathroom having a shower I want the Eve Thermo to start heating on maximum level for 2 min. is there a way to make this happen with an HomeKit automation, rule maybe in combination with an Philips Hue Smart Button? Thanks in advance- Reply
Hello REM!Sorry, but there is no boost function available for Eve Thermo. You amy set a scene though that sets the temperature to 30 degrees, the maximum temperature. You can start the scene using Siri. Best regards, Volker

hello, I have one question: I have a Gas condensing wall hung boiler at home, as I found out eve thermo is not meant for that, but I only noticed it when I already bought it. Now I use thermo in the bedroom, because the boiler does not work all day, but only in the evening and in the morning I open the valve every time and when it stops heating, I close the valve. I wonder if this is safe for the radiator? If I leave the valve open all the time, I hear the valve turn every now and then, and that's annoying in the evening when you sleep, can that be turned off? What can you recommend me? thanks- Reply
Hello Alex! Eve Thermo works when hot water is always available. So while the boiler is off, the valve will work all the time trying to adjust the selected target temperature. What you could do to avoid ist use the function Schedule in the app Eve. Selecet the Comfort temperature for the time the boiler is on and 10 degrees while off. It will shut the valve then. Best regards, Volker- Reply

Hi, I am considering buying these. A few questions first:What are their batterylifes?
Is it possible to adjust the amount of time the valves turn off with an open window to more than 10 minutes ( we dont have the window open/close sensor)
Will you update the software within the valve when new software is available, or will it at one point be obsolete?
Best regards
- Reply
Hello Anders! The batteries (2*AA) will last about a year/heating season. You can only adjust the window detection if you are using Eve Thermo with an Eve Door & Window in the same room. With only Eve Thermo the 10 minute Off is fix once Eve Thermo detects a decline of 4 degrees or more per minute. Best regards, Volker- Reply

Hi,ich nutze zur Zeit Eve Door & Window Sensor mit den Thermostat. Ich würde nun gerne eine Regel einrichten das sobald das Fenster für Zeit X (als Beispiel 25 min) offen ist, eine automatisch Nachricht auf mein Handy geht (z.B. falls man vergessen hat das Fenster zu schließen) oder eine andere Aktion auslösbar wäre. Wird es solche eine Option geben? Momentan geht ja nur das sofort eine Nachricht geschickt wird sobald der Sensor ausgelöst wird (Offen oder Geschlossen).

Hallo,ich finde nirgends Informationen zu der Reichweite der Bluetooth Low Energy des Eve Thermo, wobei das eine entscheidende Information wäre.
Meine Wohnung hat gut 100 qm, 3 Räume, jeder Raum mit separatem Zugang vom Flur. Die Apple Steuerzentrale (Apple TV, HomePod) wäre in einem der 3 Räume.
Danke & Gruß, Roland
- Reply
Hallo Roland!Die Reichweite liegt bei etwa 8-10 Metern ohne störende Wände. Zumindest die Eve Thermo in der Nähe der Steuerzentralen sollten immer und von überall erreichbar sein.
Falls es sich um neue Eve Thermo (2020) handelt, sollte es in absehbarer Zeit aber auch eine Lösung über Thread geben (https://www.evehome.com/de/blog/homekit-ueber-thread), die dann aber einen HomePod mini im Zuhause voraus setzt. Viele Grüße, Volker

Hinweis bzgl. Fenster-Erkennung mit Eve Door & Window: Automatisches Ausschalten und Wiedereinschalten der Heizung geht, wie im Artikel oben beschrieben, nur mit einer Steuerzentrale.Man darf sich dabei nicht von der Eve App verwirren lassen. Dort steht in den Geräteeinstellungen unter „Fenster-Erkennung“ nämlich nicht, dass eine Steuerzentrale dafür notwendig ist. Dies suggeriert, dass die Geräte selbstständig miteinander kommunizieren können. Es geht aber nicht richtig 😕 Ohne Steuerzentrale geht die Heizung nicht wieder an, wenn das Fenster geschlossen wird.
Ans Entwicklungsteam: Vielleicht lässt sich der Hinweis in der App ergänzen, damit es dort noch deutlicher erläutert wird?

Hallo Pierre!Ich reiche die Bitte gern weiter. Die Fenstererkennung ist in der Tat eine Automation/REgel, eine Steuerzentrale ais also voraus gesetzt. Viele Grüße, Volker

Hallo, zum Thema Fenstererkennung hätte ich auch eine Frage...kann ich irgendwie einstellen, dass die Heizung nach dem Öffnen zB der Haustür erst nach x Minuten pausiert? Die Haustür wird ja schon mal häufiger nur kurz geöffnet, da muss dass Ventil des Thermo nicht sofort schließen, sondern nur, wenn die Tür länger aufbleibt (Batterien!).- Reply

Hi,gerne würde ich Temperatur-Empfehlungen/Ratschläge für eine kleine Wohnung (65qm) und den dazugehörigen Räumen
Wohnzimmer
Schlafzimmer
Badezimmer
erhalten, damit die Heizkörper nicht sinnlos bollern wie bekloppt und massig Energie verbrauchen. Sicher ist das immer ein individuelle Angelegenheit, da jeder ein subjektives Wärme-Empfinden hat. Trotzdem könnte es mir als Orientierung helfen. Schließlich macht es wenig Sinn die Heizungen bspw. zu tief runterzufahren, während sie dann mehr Energie als nötig aufwenden, um die gewünschte Soll-Temperatur zu erreichen.
Daher die Zusatzfrage: Spart es Energie, das Thermostat in der Nacht deutlich runterzufahren und tagsüber (zu den gewünschten Zeiten) hochzufahren? Oder ist eher eine konstante Regelung sinnvoll, bei der max. 2-3 Grad Unterscheid zwischen Tag und Nacht vorliegen? Ich höre und lese dazu viele Meinungen. Viele sagen, dass eine große Temperaturdifferenz sowohl massiv Energie kostet und zudem Schimmel fördern kann. Wenn bspw. mein Wohnzimmer von 23 tagsüber auf 16 in der Nacht um ganze 7 Grad schwankt, entsteht Kondensationsfeuchtigkeit. Vor allem hinter Möbeln an den Wänden. Und dadurch entsteht eben Schimmel. Andererseits ist ja genau dieses Auf/Ab das Sinnvolle an den Geräten, die Temperatur dann und dort runterzufahren, wo sie zu dem Zeitpunkt nicht benötigt wird.
Vielen Dank für den Rat

Hallo Frank!Ich würde grundsätzlich mit der Funktion Heizplan arbeiten in Eve. Das klappt wunderbar. Hier ist eine Wunschtemparatur zu wählen und eine Eco-Temperatur, dazu die Zeiten, wann welche genutzt wird. Ein Beispiel wäre das Badezimmer von 7:00-8:00 Uhr auf 23 Grad, dann am Tag auf 16-18 am Abend wieder warm.
Grundsätzlich und das gilt auch für manuelles heizen: Eine Heizung auszuschalten, mach keinen Sinn. Kühlt die Wohnung dann komplett aus, wird mehr Energie benötigt, will man es warm haben.
Die genauen Werte sind sehr viel auch persönliches Empfinden. Bei mir ist es auf 22 Grad gestellt, bin ich in dem Raum und auf 18, bin ich nicht da.
Ich hoffe, das hilft Dir weiter, viele Grüße, Volker

Hi Volker,danke für die Rückmeldung. Die Funktion Heizplan in Eve ist mir selbstverständlich bekannt und wird auch entsprechend für die jeweiligen Räume individuell genutzt. Meine Frage zielte mehr darauf ab
welche Unterschiede zwischen Wunschtemparatur und Eco-Temperatur sind zu empfehlen? Sprich dürfen die Gaps auch mal 4,5,6 Grad betragen oder ist das eher kontraproduktiv, weil die Heizung viel mehr von Eco zu Wunsch an Energie aufbringen muss, als man durch das Absenken einspart? Ich teste bspw. gerade das Schlafzimmer, bei ich morgens für 1 1/2 Std. alles mit etwas Vorlauf vor dem tatsächlichen Aufstehen auf 22 Grad fahren lasse, während ansonsten alles tagsüber als auch über Nacht auf 16 Grad runterfährt. Too much? Besser so etwas wie 21 und 18 Grad, sprich 3 anstelle 6 Grad Unterschied?
Grüße, Frank

Hallo Frank!Ich heize zum Beispiel das Schlafzimmer von 10:00 bis 20:00 auf 21 Grad, dann in der Nacht ist die Eco-Temperatur auf 16 Grad gesetzt. Das geht prima. Der Raum wird auch im Winter nicht kälter, als 18 Grad - Metwohnung mit anderen Parteien unter mir. So verhindere ich Heizen Nachts.
In anderen Räumen is es individuell ähnlich, der Unterschied zwischen Komfort- und Eco-Temperatur ist bei mir zwischen 3 und 4 Grad - seit Jahren. Ich hoffe, das hilft Dir, Volker

HiI have my own boiler, that's regulated through one central wallmounted roomthermostat. How do I make Eve Thermo cooperate with that, as regardless of whether the radiator valves are open or close, the central thermostat will make the boiler boil or cool.

Hello Richard!Eve Thermo does not work with installations with a central room thermostat. Eve Thermos only works when hot water is available always. Best regards, have a great Sunday, Volker

Hi, if I may make a suggestion: set the central room controller to weather dependant control instead of room temperature control. You could program the central room controller to switch off the boiler completely during periods where eve thermos are all off. This way the pump is not running whole night. This way of controlling requires (smart) TRV’s trough the whole system or the rooms overheat.Br henkjan

Also note for weather dependant control the system requires something like an open shunt or bypass circuit.- Reply
Hello Henkjan!Whatever is done to the heater/room thermostat, Eve Thermo requires the availability of hot water all time during the heating season.

It would be nice to have more flexibility by selecting multiple temeratures for an automation. E.g. During Night 18C, from 6:00-9:00 then 24C - from 9:00 - 19:00 them 20C - from 19:00-23:00 again 24C...It would be cool if you could provide such an ease of setting multiple Temeratures ina future release.
Thanks
