Control your hot water. See how much water is available at the set temperature (Requires a compatible Dimplex Quantum Water Cylinder QWCd).
See faults reported on the app and request help using service mode.
* Only specific heater models and series letters listed above are supported. Dimplex Control support requires additional hardware. In all cases, purchase of a Dimplex Hub (model name ‘DimplexHub’) is required to connect to the internet and communicate with supported Dimplex products. Some products also require additional hardware to provide RF connectivity (model name ‘RFM’) for communication with Dimplex Hub. To check if a product requires an RF upgrade, check the compatibility list http://bit.ly/dimplexcontrol-list Dimplex Control support is subject to change.

Ratings and Reviews
Dimplex Edel usable hot water not useful
When the tank falls below 40 degrees it states you have 0 litres of hot water left. Not helpful as there’s no sense of what temperature the remaining water is. Either allow the app to show the cylinder water temperature, or make it adjustable for what the ‘usable’ hot water temperature is.
Personally I find 36-38 degrees hot enough, yet the app saying 0L gives ‘range anxiety’, whereas there may actually be more than enough hot water for a comfortable hot shower. Everyone is different.
Stable, functional, GUI could improve
I use this on iOS 17.1.2 and MacOS 14.1.1 Sonoma M1 Max processor. Very stable and functional. I control Quantum panel and Quantum storgage heaters. Shows energy input over time very accurately. My only beef is the GUI is a little slow and it's not clear which is the target temperature and the actual temperature.. ie no labels. Also the devives claim to have accuracy of =/- 0.3 degrees, but temp setting and reading is only in whole numbers. Like the fact you cann add several devices to a zone and see the zone effect rather than the indiviual heaters. Suggest Dimplex take a look at the HIVE interface which is award winning and I would say better than the Dimplex one, as as a first release it is pretty good.
Desperately Needs Improvement
When it works, the app is adequate - if a little slow. Despite it requiring local hardware, it is clear this heavily relies on the cloud.
But this biggest vital problem is that when setting schedules, despite saying they successfully save, it fails to save. The amount of days I have had no heat because this app has failed to save schedules (and I’ve failed to check by going back into the schedule) are numerous. And what’s worse, it has sometimes taken me up to 4 times of setting the schedule for it to finally save. This is one of the main functions on the app and for it to be so unreliable is really poor and desperately needs work - especially when the app claims the schedule save has been successful which is completely misleading.
Additionally there is no external integrations - so there is absolutely no option to use HomeKit, Matter or Home Assistant to try and get around it. Just stuck with this buggy app.
These pieces of hardware are not cheap. Dimplex - please sort this out.
