Remote controlled in floor slab heating?

[ryan112ryan]

So I'm going to be building a shop that's a few hours from home, the plan is to move there full time in a few years, but I'm going to build the shop now so I can have a real shop and build a small living area into it so I have a place to stay while I'm up there.

I know that in floor heating can take a good while to heat up the slab, in some cases a day or so. So I wanted a way that I could hop on my phone and get the boiler going a day before I get there so when I arrive its nice and warm during the winters.

Is there a certain manufacturer that has this feature on their boilers?

Located in Asheville NC area, the shop will be 40x60 two zones, will most likely be getting a large tank, power will be grid power and I'm going to spring for a dedicated 200amp service. Internet should be high speed cable internet.

Might want to give a little more info on your shop location for example is nat. gas available, reliable power or off grid. type of internet available. one problem we have encountered is getting past the firewall on satellite internet providers for remote access.
We have installed quite a few Viessmann boilers in the last few years with the Vitocom 100 might be a little overkill for your shop. You could also go with a wifi thermostat compatible with almost any heating system.
