How do I use the heating system in my home?
Heating systems at Enclave are designed to be modern, efficient, and easy to use. The exact controls may vary depending on the development, but most homes use either wall-mounted thermostats or panel heaters with built-in controls.
Common types of heating controls
-
Central thermostat: A digital wall thermostat allows you to set your desired temperature. The system will maintain the room at this level automatically.
-
Individual room controls: Some apartments use electric panel heaters, each with its own control panel, giving you flexibility to heat only the rooms you’re using.
-
Programmable timers: Many systems allow you to schedule heating to turn on and off at certain times — useful for mornings or evenings.
How to adjust your heating
-
Set the temperature: Choose a comfortable level, usually around 18–21°C for living areas.
-
Use timers wisely: Programme the system so heating is on when you need it and off when you don’t, to save energy.
-
Avoid extremes: Setting the thermostat too high won’t heat your home faster; it will just use more energy.
