Homematic IP Underfloor Heating Controller HmIP-FALMOT-C8 Explained

The HmIP-FALMOT-C8 underfloor heating controller provides motorised control for up to eight heating circuits. This article outlines its design, function and use cases.

The Homematic IP underfloor heating controller HmIP-FALMOT-C8 (article number 161656A0) is designed for the motorised control of up to eight heating circuits. It is suitable for underfloor heating systems in residential and functional buildings and supports both heating and cooling applications.

Unlike conventional on/off control systems, the controller operates with continuous motorised control of the connected actuators. This allows the water flow of each heating circuit to be adjusted precisely, resulting in even temperature distribution and a stable indoor climate.

A key feature is the integrated automatic hydraulic balancing. The controller continuously determines the actual heat demand of each room and dynamically adjusts the flow of the heating circuits accordingly. No manual settings or additional components are required. Changes to the system, such as building modifications or changes in use, are automatically taken into account.

The installation is intended for use in a control cabinet or for direct wall mounting. Thanks to its compact dimensions of 135 x 85 x 52 mm and tool-free plug-in and terminal connection technology, the device can be installed quickly. Power is supplied at 230 V / 50 Hz, with a maximum current consumption of 500 mA.

The underfloor heating controller can be directly paired with wall thermostats. Alternatively, it can be integrated into a Homematic IP system, including app-based operation and the creation of individual heating and cooling profiles. Multiple temperature changes per day can be defined to match actual usage patterns.

In practical use, the controller typically works in combination with Homematic IP wall thermostats and motorised actuators. The room temperature is measured at the thermostat, transmitted to the controller and converted into continuous control of the heating circuits. The result is demand-based regulation of each individual room.
