The Heating Performance Monitor is a Hive+ feature that watches your heating system 24/7. If Hive senses something unusual, like slow warm-ups or failing components, it sends a timely alert so you can address the issue before it impacts efficiency or comfort.

How to Access the Heating Performance Monitor

• Open the Hive app and navigate to the Insights or Manage tab (where your Heating History resides).
• If the system detects any inefficiency, like poor performance or slower-than-expected warming, you’ll receive a notification.
• Tap into the alert to check details and recommended next steps (e.g., checking radiator performance or contacting support).

What You’ll See

• A visible warning or alert within the app dashboard if inefficiency is detected.
• A brief explanation or suggestion of the issue, such as “Heating taking longer than usual.”
• Option to acknowledge the alert, and (where available) links to further guidance or help.

Why It Works

Hive systems learn your home's heating behaviour over time, so when something deviates from normal performance, like delayed heat up or unusual boiler activity, it recognises it as a pattern change and alerts you promptly. This proactive monitoring helps prevent energy waste and potential system breakdowns.

What to Expect

• Instant app notifications when efficiency drops.
• Clear descriptions of the detected issue e.g., slow heat-up or underperformance.
• Smart advice or automated diagnostics to help pinpoint the cause.
• Seamless integration with other Hive+ features like Schedule Assist and Heating History to give you full control.

Why Use Heating Performance Monitor?

• Keeps your system in check and prevents hidden inefficiencies.
• Helps you act early - before a small issue results in high bills or a breakdown.
• Enhances energy savings by ensuring your system works optimally.
• Complements Hive+ smart tools for a more efficient and comfortable home.
