The heating technician can tell you whether there are system-specific controllers. For us (Weishaupt) there was something like that, but it is not used to control individual rooms; instead, it shows system statuses. Additionally, you can switch from an outdoor temperature-controlled to an indoor temperature-controlled regulation of the heat pump (we also did that, but via KNX and not with the clunky system device from the manufacturer).

However, I assume you are talking here about the controllers for each room (ERR). These are normally independent of the heat pump manufacturer, since the ERR does not communicate with the heat pump but with the actuators in the heating circuit distributor.

Don’t expect too much from a temperature setting in the decimal range. As I said, the imprecision lies in the system itself. The actuator on the heating circuit can only be "open" or "closed." There’s no in-between. That means the controller will always compare its target value with a (self-measured) actual value and open or close the valve within the scope of a hysteresis. This naturally "oscillates," since the low-temperature underfloor heating is an inert system.

The analog controllers in our current apartment are too inaccurate for me. In each room, the settings differ. That means when I set the controller to 20 degrees there, it is actually 20 degrees in one room, but 19, 21, or even 23 degrees in the others. With a digital setting or display, I feel on the safe side + the recommendation and experience of our electrician.

Set the heating correctly to the desired temperatures (hydraulic and thermal balancing), completely remove the ERR, and treat yourself and your family to something nice with the money saved. That makes more sense than an "upgrade" to digital controllers...

If it’s supposed to be smart, then do it as nordanney described.

Am facing the same "problem". But I am trying to somehow sensibly replace the ERR. For example, I am looking for something with integrated sensors (temperature, humidity, movement, ...) using a wireless protocol.

In my opinion, that is a false "security" ... :)
