Type of heater in the App- BaseboardUpdated 4 months ago

 Mysa supports three main types of heaters: Baseboard, Fan-forced, and Radiant. This guide helps you understand which type to choose for your specific setup.

1. Baseboard Heaters

For electric baseboard heaters, choose the 'Baseboard' option. This setting is specifically designed to control Mysa's electric baseboard heaters effectively.

2. Fan-Forced Heaters

If you have electric fan-forced heaters or toe kick heaters, select 'Fan forced'. This setting tailors Mysa's operation to suit the unique characteristics of fan-forced heating systems.

3. Radiant Heating Systems

Select 'Radiant' for controlling electric radiant systems, such as radiant ceiling heaters. In this mode, Mysa activates only when the room temperature is 0.5°C (1°F) below the set temperature. Note: The 'Radiant' option is available on devices running Firmware 1.4.2 or newer. Devices not on the latest firmware will update automatically within three hours post-installation.
