Our new house will feature remote thermal sensors for temperature control of the various zones. Instead of a traditional thermostat placed on the wall, we will have thermal sensors embedded in the drywall. We have eschewed most wall-mounted controllers and devices in favor of using voice control or phone-based apps to control the home. “Hey Siri, set the temperature to 68 degrees.”
The pictures show the installed 3/4″ diameter sensors. I documented distances to adjacent walls and took the photos should I ever need to locate the devices in the future.
