Ideal Halo 222145 Programmable Thermostat User Guide

Ideal Halo 222145 Programmable Thermostat

Welcome to your new Ideal Halo control. This thermostat will help you to control both your heating temperature and the times that your heating is on.

Halo is a battery-powered, wireless control for both heating and hot water, that uses a protocol called Zigbee to communicate with the Smart Interface that wires into the boiler. This user guide is applicable to both the Halo Heat & System RF and Halo Heat & System Wi-Fi control. Halo Heat & System RF is a non-connected control (control is via the Halo Heat & System unit only). Halo Heat & System Wi-Fi is a wireless heating control that is connected to the internet. You can download the Halo app on Google Play or the Apple app store. You will not have to pay to use the app. For more information on the features in your Halo app visit the Help section of the app or visit our website idealheating.com

TOP TIP
Your Halo is designed to provide the perfect balance of comfort and efficiency.

By controlling the temperature in your radiators your system is working in the most efficient way for you.
