Netatmo has just announced its new HomeKit compatible products at IFA 2017 in Berlin: some new thermostatic valves that allow you to control the temperature of your house room by room And thanks to Siri you can control with your voice from anywhere.
But it has also announced something highly anticipated by those who already have one of their security cameras, or are waiting to buy them: Netatmo Welcome and Netatmo Presence will be compatible with HomeKit thanks to a firmware update that will be available to you both for the models already sold and for the next ones that are acquired.
Smart radiator valves are available now and will allow you to control the temperature of each room remotely. With energy savings of up to 37% they guarantee the well-being of your home without wasting on heating. They are suitable for all types of radiators, both with central and individual heating, and if you already have conventional thermostatic valves, their installation is very simple.. If you have normal valves, it is best to have a specialist install them for you. The valves connect to a control panel wirelessly and this control panel is the one that connects to the internet using your WiFi network.
Netatmo Presence, the outdoor security camera, and Netatmo Welcome, the indoor security camera with facial recognition, will receive new firmware updates that will make them compatible with HomeKit. Thanks to the changes that Apple has made to its platform, it is now possible to certify as HomeKit compatible through software, without the need to make hardware changes, and Netatmo has not wanted to miss this opportunity, something that its users will greatly appreciate. Thanks to HomeKit you can control the camera by voice, use it for automations with other compatible devices and use them with the Home application.
