More control
With Timeguard ’ s new FST WiFi units , appliances no longer need to be ‘ Wi-Fi ready ’ to be controlled from your phone any more . All you need to do is replace a fused spur or switch with one of Timeguard ’ s FST WiFi units , pair it with your home Wi-Fi and download the free Timeguard App . Then any space or water heater can become part of the Internet of Things . A weatherproof option can also be added to control outdoor heaters and lights .
The new devices allow the customer more control over the biggest energy guzzlers in their property .
The App enables you to set on and off times , add an extra ‘ boost ’ hour if needed , and just to check at a glance whether or not something is on or off . Multiple FST WiFi units can be controlled from the App and allocate limited control over specific appliances to sub users such as family members , colleagues or tenants .
