Introduction of AI in the Smatrix Control Systems for Panel Heating

Based on weather changes, room temperature factors, and user preferences, the solution predicts, adapts, optimizes, and seamlessly connects with many heat pump models and brands. The cloud-to-cloud connectivity ensures a fast set-up of the system for both new and existing Smatrix Pulse installations without complex wiring, installation, or additional hardware.

Modern building regulations have successfully reduced energy consumption through better insulation, but they have also made radiant heating systems less responsive. Additionally, new architectural preferences with big windows and rapidly changing weather conditions demand faster response systems to set optimal heat curves for individual comfort and energy savings. Uponor Smatrix AI underfloor heating control integrates Artificial Intelligence to predict, adapt, and optimize heating performance. Seamlessly connected to heat pump via cloud-to-cloud integration, it ensures fast response times, effortless setup, and maximum energy efficiency. By analyzing weather patterns, room temperature factors, and user preferences, Smatrix AI continuously adjusts heating output, keeping indoor temperatures just right throughout the seasons.

Uponor Smatrix Pulse: the intelligent control system with autobalancing
Developed to fully leverage the advantages of a radiant system, Uponor Smatrix increases energy-efficiency while ensuring optimal comfort in every single room. With intelligent room, zone, and supply water controls, Smatrix offers modular and expandable systems that are easy to install and meet the requirements of any building project – from new build to renovation. Key features include Uponor’s Autobalancing technology, a cooling function with high protection to avoid condensation, and the app control on the smartphone or tablet.

AI taking radiant heating control to the next level
The new Smatrix AI seamlessly manages settings and automatically controls indoor climate to create a personalized living environment “room by room” without manual interaction. Utilizing data from user preferences, energy sources, and weather conditions, the AI proactively adjusts the heating. It carries out smart tasks, like recognizing trends, and learns from collected data to make decisions. Smatrix AI can recognize patterns of building behavior using trained data of real buildings and simulations considering weather conditions to achieve comfort and energy savings.

Saving energy at always the right temperature
The Uponor Smatrix AI solution utilizes AI to leverage real-time weather conditions and building-specific data to optimize the heat pump's supply temperature. Decreasing the supply water temperature in advance due to a forecast of an increasing outdoor temperature and solar radiation results in clear energy savings (at least 10 %), whilst maintaining an ideal indoor comfort temperature.

Fast installation: download Smatrix Pulse App for easy set-up
Uponor Smatrix AI doesn’t require hardware installations due to cloud-to-cloud connection when heat pump and Smatrix Pulse are already installed. By simply updating the Smatrix App, the user is guided step by step on how to activate the new feature.

New thermostats for high usage compatible with Smatrix AI
With the new Uponor Smatrix Thermostats, GF Building Flow Solutions expands its intelligent room temperature control portfolio with a version meeting the growing demand for aesthetically pleasing yet durable control units. Designed for high usage, such as in multi-family homes or rental apartments, the new thermostats can be combined with the Smatrix AI solution, providing significant energy savings while maximizing comfort in every single room.
