In today’s energy-conscious world, when you use your appliances is just as important as how efficiently they run. At Tongyi, we’ve equipped our R290 air-to-water units with features that go beyond energy efficiency—they add intelligence. One of the standout features is the smart schedule heat pump capability, giving users more control over energy use and cost savings.
This week, we’re shining the spotlight on one of the most powerful tools in your unit: the smart schedule heat pump function. With the right setup, you can align your system to run during low-tariff hours, reduce electricity bills, and maximize your comfort—automatically.
What Is Smart Scheduling?
A smart schedule heat pump allows you to decide when your unit should be heating, cooling, or preparing hot water, without needing to manually intervene. It connects directly to your control interface or mobile app, letting you set routines that match your daily life and utility rates.
For example:
- Set your heat pump to preheat domestic hot water at night, when electricity is cheaper.
- Run your cooling cycles in the early morning to avoid midday peaks.
- Keep your system in eco mode while you’re away, automatically reactivating before you return.
This flexibility not only improves efficiency, it empowers you to take control of your energy strategy.
Off-Peak Power = Lower Bills
Electricity tariffs often fluctuate throughout the day. With time-of-use pricing becoming more common across Europe, users who run their systems during off-peak periods (typically late night or early morning) benefit from significantly reduced energy costs.
A smart schedule heat pump from Tongyi can be programmed to:
- Avoid running during expensive peak hours.
- Optimize heating and cooling in sync with your building’s occupancy.
- Balance comfort and economy with automatic zone control.
Even small scheduling changes—like heating your home 30 minutes earlier—can result in noticeable savings over the course of a year.
Designed for Real-World Needs
Our R290 series supports:
- Double-zone control for managing independent areas (e.g., living room vs. bedroom).
- Holiday mode for reducing activity while you’re away.
- Cascade connection (up to 8 units) in commercial systems—each with individualized schedules.
- Integration with PV systems, allowing you to run your system when your solar panels are producing free electricity.
Whether it’s a family home, co-working space, or hotel, the smart schedule heat pump logic helps adapt your energy use to your lifestyle or business rhythm.
