AVM Content

Autumn is approaching, which means it will soon be time to start turning on the heating. With FRITZ! Smart Home products, heating your home efficiently is easy. FRITZ!OS 8 also includes new features for your FRITZ! Smart Home. Here are some simple tips for added convenience.

Handy & secure

With the FRITZ!DECT 302 radiator control and your FRITZ!Box, you have the perfect combination for smart temperature control. Control is super easy in the FRITZ!Box user interface, with the FRITZ!App Smart Home or with the FRITZ!DECT 440 four-way smart switch.

Data protection and security are our top priority: All your data and FRITZ! Smart Home settings remain within your home network. An external account is not required.

Regular updates not only improve the security of your FRITZ! Smart Home, but also continuously expand what it can do.

New in FRITZ!OS 8

FRITZ!OS 8 includes a number of updates for the smart home:

For selected radiator controls the FRITZ!DECT 350 door/window contact can now be set up to detect when a window is open.
The temperature settings for radiator controls can now be restricted to a minimum and maximum temperature.
New templates allow the target temperature to be changed in increments
(e.g. + or - 0.5 degrees Celsius).
New templates allow you to dim the brightness and saturation of the colors of the FRITZ!DECT 500.
The position of roller shutters can be adjusted in percentages.
Routines can now also be triggered by a preset time or a time relative to the sunrise/sunset.

Switching in groups and with templates

Do you have several radiators in one room? Group your FRITZ!DECT 302 devices so that all radiators in a room have the same settings. Create individual heating plans and save them in smart home templates: This ensures your bedroom is at the right temperature at night, in the morning the bathroom is nice and warm and during the day when nobody's at home, the FRITZ!DECT radiator controls lower the temperature automatically.

By automatically regulating your home's radiators you save up to 10% of heating costs. In this guide we give tips on how you can save money and protect the environment with automatic heating plans.

Heating with the FRITZ!App Smart Home and FRITZ!DECT 440

Want to apply templates, quickly check the temperature, or activate boost mode? The FRITZ!App Smart Home offers all this and more, making it the perfect tool for controlling your smart home.

The FRITZ!DECT 440 is a true all-rounder. In addition to manual heating control at the touch of a button, it can also be used as a temperature sensor. This way you can ensure that your heating with FRITZ! measures the temperature exactly where you want it to.

Check the battery level

If you are already using one or more FRITZ!DECT 302 devices, we recommend checking the battery status before the colder weather begins. To do this, open the detailed view for the radiator controls in your FRITZ!App Smart Home or go to the “Smart Home” section of the FRITZ!Box user interface.
