You're incontrol.
To give you maximum control over the way you heat or cool your house, we have three compact wall controllers to choose from. Available in programmable and manual models, each controller is easy to read, unobtrusive and technologically advanced, without being unnecessarily complicated to use.
The Brivis Networker.
The Brivis Networker can operate in either auto or manual modes. In manual mode, you set your own temperature, then leave the rest to the Brivis Networker. It will maintain the temperature you have chosen, until you choose to turn it off. The Brivis Networker controls Brivis Ducted Gas Heating and Cooling Systems.
In auto mode the Brivis Networker allows you to preset temperatures, times and zoning configurations (if fitted). This means that you can wake up to a beautifully warm house even at the coldest times of the year. The Brivis Networker is designed with an easy-to-use rotary dial, an easy-to-read LCD screen and is backlit using state of the art Electro-Luminescence (EL) technology, making the screen easier to read in poorly lit areas or at night.
In addition, when zoning, for example upstairs or downstairs, two Brivis Networkers can be used together to provide enhanced zone temperature control. During warmer weather the Brivis Networker can be used to operate either a Brivis evaporative or Brivis ICE Addon refrigerated cooling system. *
When in cooling or heating mode, the Brivis Networker can be programmed to turn off or set back after you've gone to sleep giving you comfortable sleeping conditions.
The Brivis Progrmmable Controller.
The Brivis Programmable Controller can operate in either auto or manual modes. In auto mode you preset temperatures and times for the heating/cooling system to turn on and off. Alternatively the manual mode allows you to turn the heating/cooling system on or off as desired.
The Brivis manual Controller. * *
The Brivis Manual Controller is a simple to use control where you set the temperature when you want heating.
Key points:
- Easy to use
- EL technology gives uniform and clear backlighting of the Brivis Networker display
- Two Brivis Networkers can be used together for enhanced zone climate control
StarPro Series
The most choices . The Brivis StarPro series has several different options and models to choose from so that you can select the right heater for your needs.
The Brivis StarPro series can be controlled by our most advanced controller, the Brivis Networker, a Programmable or a Manual Thermostat. You can even directly connect the heater to most Home Automation Systems.
The Brivis StarPro series has Extra Air (XA) models available to suit the Brivis ICE Add-on refrigerated cooling system, giving you total climate control all year round.
The Brivis StarPro MAX range of heaters are also available in a range of LPG models.
Key Points
- High Efficiency (up to 5.8 stars).
- On-board diagnostics.
- Brivis adaptive zoning.
- Installation flexibility.
- Advanced control options.
- Brivis ICE Add-on refrigerated cooling system.
Zoning
The Brivis StarPro series has an advanced Energy Management System (EMS). The main benefit of the EMS is zoning, which effectively means you can divide your home into up to four separate heating areas or, if you want the whole house heated at the same time, you can heat all zones at once. The whole zoning process is automatically controlled by the Brivis Networker.
Aligned with the EMS, another great energy advance is the exclusive Brivis Adaptive Zoning System; the ability of the StarPro series to reduce its output by up to 80%. The heater detects how many zones you are currently operating and reduces the energy and fan output to match this requirement automatically. This means that if you only want certain parts of your house heated, you're not wasting energy. Ask your dealer about these zoning options.
Flexibility
The Brivis StarPro series is designed to fit easily into the roof, under floor space or unobstrusively outside the house. The internal unit can be split, then reassembled in the roof for easier and faster installation. Service clearances have been optimised to ensure the Brivis StarPro range can fit into most installation space situations.
Advanced technology.
The technologies used in the Brivis StarPro series are a culmination of Brivis' 50 years of heating experience in Australia. The Brivis StarPro series features ensure that the heaters are more effective at heating your home, with the least amount of energy and expense. Every aspect of the Brivis StarPro series has been designed to make it more powerful, efficient, reliable, and unobtrusive.
The Brivis StarPro series of heaters feature a spark ignition system to ignite the burners. A flame sensor on the end of the burners sends a signal to confirm that there is ignition across the entire burner. The gas ramps up to maximum to quickly heat up the heat exchanger, the circulation fan starts slowly, and gently ramps to the optimum speed for heating the house. This ensures that the start up of the heater is extremely quiet, delivers heat in the fastest possible time and that you don't feel a cold draught when the fan starts.
StarPro Series MAX (HX) and PLUS (MX)
The Brivis StarPro MAX range includes models that hold the highest star rating of any ducted gas heater available in Australia; 5.8 stars (HX23). This high star rating means your system provides the highest level of comfort, for the least running cost.
Having Australia's most efficient Ducted Gas Heating system is only part of the story, the Brivis StarPro MAX range provides the highest levels of quality, the highest levels of flexibility and the best value for money. The Brivis StarPro PLUS medium efficiency range employs all of the great features and benefits of the Brivis StarPro MAX range, but at a medium efficiency star rating. The Brivis StarPro PLUS series has an efficiency range from 4.2 stars to 4.4 stars.
StarPro Series B-Max
Upgrading to 5 + Star rated efficiency has never been easier.
