Thermostats

A thermostat is a regulating device equipped with remote sensors or internal sensors to detect the rise and fall of temperature in a room, system or device. These devices play a vital role in controlling and regulating temperatures across various applications, including central heating systems, air conditioners, water heaters, HVAC systems, kitchen equipment, and medical devices.

Digital thermostats provide greater convenience and efficiency compared to their analog counterparts. They enable you to maximize the performance of your heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems. With programmable features, digital thermostats also allow you to optimize energy usage for climate control, helping you save on costs while maintaining a comfortable environment.

Our selection includes enclosure thermostats, mechanical HVAC thermostats, programmable digital thermostats, electronic room thermostats, and advanced smart thermostats with Wi-Fi capabilities.

We are committed to supplying thermostats from reputable brands, and our experience in this field ensures only the best products are delivered, helping you optimise comfort and efficiency in every environment.

What Does a Thermostat Do?

A thermostat regulates the temperature of liquids in tanks and works alongside air conditioning units to monitor room air. It automatically switches the system on or off as needed to maintain a consistent temperature. In residential settings, room thermostats control heating and radiators. When the room temperature drops, the programmable thermostat activates the heating, turning it off once the desired temperature is reached. This ensures a comfortable environment while enhancing energy efficiency.

Types of Thermostats

At RS Australia, we offer a diverse selection of thermostats, including digital, electronic, and smart models, with precise temperature control, energy efficiency, and enhanced user experience.

Here is an overview of the main types of thermostats we supply:
