How does Havenwise control my heat pump during the learning phase?

How we control your temperatures while your model is learning

During the learning phase, Havenwise uses a safe, predictable control strategy to keep your home comfortable while it learns how your building responds to heat.

Essentially it's a mix of weather compensation and room temperature influence. The goal is stability first, efficiency second, and learning in the background.


So how does it work?

1. Normal operation follows the weather

When your home is close to the desired temperature, Havenwise behaves like a smart weather-compensated controller. It tracks the outside temperature, and increases and decreases the flow temperature accordingly. This mirrors how an experienced installer would tune a heating curve for seasonal efficiency.

2. But comfort always comes first

On top of the weather response, Havenwise gently adjusts heating based on how your room actually feels. This helps Havenwise respond to real conditions inside your home, not just the weather outside. These rules ensure you never drift too far from comfort while the system is still learning.

3. Stable, cautious, and learning in the background

During this phase, Havenwise:

  • Avoids rapid or experimental changes

  • Uses proven heating principles

  • Prioritises comfort and system safety

All the while, it is learning how quickly your home heats up, cools down, and retains warmth. This information is later used to unlock more advanced, efficient control.


In short

During the learning phase, Havenwise:

  • Protects comfort with boost and shut-off safeguards

  • Uses outdoor temperature to set a sensible heating level

  • Fine-tunes heat using indoor feedback

  • Learns quietly in the background

Once learning is complete, Havenwise can control your heat pump more intelligently, more efficiently, and more precisely.
