Intelligent heating systems use sensors and software to automatically control heating in a building. They make decisions based on data (such as temperature, occupancy, and weather) to improve efficiency and reduce energy use.

1. Sensors detect temperature, weather and whether rooms are in use
2. The system processes this data automatically
3. Heating is adjusted without user input

• Automatic on/off control
  Heating turns on or off depending on whether people are present
• Weather response
  Adjusts heating based on external temperature conditions
• Learning from data
  Uses historical patterns (e.g. daily routines) to optimise heating
• Zoned heating
  Different rooms can be heated separately rather than heating the whole building

• Reduces wasted energy by only heating when required
• Less energy use means less fuel burned
• This leads to lower carbon emissions
