If you’re part of those who have been searching long and wide for a solution to connect your baseboard heaters, you’ll be happy to hear that we have finally done it…

Check out casaconnect.com to learn more about Caleo, our brand new line-voltage smart thermostat. It’s now available for pre-order at our Kickstarter campaign [url=https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/casa/caleo-the-line-voltage-smart-thermostat]https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/casa/caleo-the-line-voltage-smart-thermostat[/url]

Looking on the site it looks like the thermostat uses Wifi as the communication protocol.

Is this working with Vera? If not are there plans to add it and when?

Is it available in the US?

I’m not so sure your going to find much info. This is a post from almost 2 years ago and searching the forums there is no other info.

The kickstarter was cancelled, not much talk on the web and it only shows one place it’s sold.

I also don’t think Line Voltage Heaters are popular enough in the US to make a product like this work. Most thermostat’s only use 24v in the US.

I understand that this is a 2 year old post… but the company still exists, and looks to be trying to sell these, so it wouldn’t be unreasonable for them to want to promote to the HA market and be monitoring sites like this.

Maybe in your area, not mine. Across the US, sure. but there is a market for LV thermostats, look at the first few pages of the amazon thermostats page, mostly 24v thermostats but still a few LV models that are selling well.

Around Seattle our heating/cooling needs are moderate due to the fact that our weather is mild. It often just doesn’t make sense to install a low voltage system in homes around here, I’d say most or close to most of the new homes around here use line voltage. It is frustrating that there are 500 low voltage thermostats and 0 line voltage thermostats.

Not to mention things like floor heaters etc that can be installed and use similar type thermostat technology.
