alpha.one
“alpha.one” is an intelligent, wireless heating control system that brings together a combination of expertise from the building physics and energy sectors. The innovative system consists of three components: a central control unit (alpha.base), a sensor (alpha.sense) and an actuator (alpha.drive). A few extremely simple steps is all it takes to install these components in homes equipped with radiators. The system is then controlled by the householder via a free smartphone app. The simple, unobtrusive, yet individual design vocabulary used for the system’s components allows them to blend harmoniously into any home environment. As well as stripping the components’ compact design down to its essentials, care was taken to use materials in a conscious manner and ensure that the highest standards of quality were attained during the production process.
