Control the heat in your own home whenever and wherever you want – made possible by Kermi Smart Home with new control elements within the Kermi x-optimised thermal comfort system.
x-center base – digital control from anywhere
The x-center base home server lets users easily and comfortably access the components of the Kermi x-optimised thermal comfort system with a web browser – no special software required. They can then manage the user interface, temperature settings or heating times for their home from a programmed interface. Users can thus change preset times at any time from anywhere in case they will arrive home earlier or later than expected. A login option with advanced maintenance functions is also available to installers and Kermi service technicians. Data privacy is, of course, guaranteed – the system ensures that data can be accessed only by its owner. A true demand-based inlet temperature control is made possible by evaluating and preparing all room-specific data in the x-center base, combined with other Kermi x-optimised components. The heat is provided precisely where it is needed in each room at the desired point in time, which makes for a much more comfortable temperature and optimizes energy efficiency.
At the heart of the system is the new x-center base energy and comfort manager, which allows all components of the heating system to be controlled and programmed – Kermi Smart Home for heating and cooling.
In addition to x-center base, the room climate specialist also presents new intelligent controllers for its radiators, panel heating/cooling systems as well as the x-change dynamic and x-change compact heat pumps.
EnOcean radiator controllers – top performance at the radiator
In the Kermi x-optimised thermal comfort system, the x-center base home server communicates with the new radio-based thermostat controllers via the EnOcean wireless standard, ensuring the efficient and userfriendly control of the individual radiators. These thermostat controllers can be easily mounted on the therm-x2 panel radiators and many designer radiators from Kermi in just a few steps. The thermostat controller is
then connected to the home server at the press of a button.
EnOcean radiator Controller
Open EnOcean wireless interface Other devices, such as window contacts, can also be integrated into the network via the EnOcean standard of x-center base. Moreover, EnOcean-based switch actuators are available for electrical solutions on bathroom or designer radiators. The EnOcean wireless-based radiator controller not only shows the setpoint temperature on its large display, it also provides information on the inlet temperature and valve lift position, providing an efficient, demand-based hydraulic function at any time of the year.
x-center control – web-based control of the heat pump
The new x-center x40 controller for Kermi x-change dynamic heat pumps and the x-center x20 controller for all x-change compact models are connected to the x-center base home server, making them also suitable for web-based operation from a smartphone, tablet or PC. This permits remote maintenance as well as online monitoring and online checks as needed so that the heat pumps can operate efficiently and without wasting resources – entirely within the Kermi x-optimised thermal comfort system.

x-net web-based individual room control – for x-net panel heating and cooling
The web-based individual room controller for all x-net panel heating/cooling systems from Kermi, which was introduced at ISH 2015, is also connected to the x-center base home server and can thus be conveniently controlled on the go. It consists of various room control units and associated switch actuators, offering high functionality for operating the x-net panel heating/cooling system comfortably and energy-efficiently.

Heating system of the future
All components of the Kermi x-optimised thermal comfort system are available from a single source for new construction, renovation and remodeling projects – from heat generation with a heat pump to heat transmission with radiators or Panel heating/cooling systems. The new Kermi Smart Home solutions are an intelligent, future-viable and user-friendly addition to the system.
The x-center base home server enables different devices to be networked and gives users the option of easily and comfortably controlling the room climate themselves.
