The Heat You Never See
The Heat You Never See (and Always Pay For)
You can’t see it. You can’t touch it. But every day, landlords and short-term rental hosts are paying for it — heat that no one’s even there to feel.
Empty houses with the radiators still ticking. Properties warming themselves for guests who’ve already checked out. Energy bills creeping up like an unpaid subscription.
That’s the hidden cost of hosting. And until now, it’s been accepted as “just part of the business.”
Air Auto Mate doesn’t accept that.
Automation Is the New Control
For years, the smart-home industry has sold control — shiny apps, clever thermostats, and dashboards that promise “remote access.”
But here’s the catch: you still have to do something.
You still have to open the app, check your booking calendar, tap a few buttons, and hope you remember to turn it off again later.
That’s not automation. That’s admin.
Alfred — our smart heating system for short-term rentals — does the job for you.
He reads your bookings automatically, knows when a guest is checking in, and when they’re gone, powers down your heating.
No reminders. No apps. No wasted energy.
Hosts Are Busy Enough
Let’s be honest — being a host is already a full-time job disguised as a side hustle.
There’s cleaning, restocking, guest messages, laundry runs, key drops, the works.
Heating shouldn’t be on that list.
That’s why we designed Alfred to be invisible once installed. He syncs with your property’s calendar, talks directly to your boiler or heating system, and quietly does the thinking for you.
You stay focused on guests and growth. He takes care of comfort and cost.
How Much Could You Be Wasting?
The average UK host spends between £600 and £1,200 a year on heating that doesn’t benefit a single guest.
It happens in the shoulder seasons, between bookings, and during those “just in case” evenings when you leave the heating on overnight.
Alfred stops that waste cold — literally.
He warms the house before guests arrive, holds temperature while they stay, and shuts down once they’ve gone.
Every cycle, every property, every booking — precision-timed to your real occupancy.
Technology That Feels Human
We didn’t want another piece of cold, complicated tech. We wanted something that feels like service.
That’s why we called him Alfred.
He’s polite, efficient, and reliable. He doesn’t nag. He doesn’t need updates every five minutes. He just works — quietly saving you money and lowering your carbon footprint in the process.
It’s a little old-fashioned in spirit, but entirely modern in design.
The Future of Hosting Is Effortless Efficiency
Running a profitable short-term rental isn’t about adding more gadgets; it’s about removing friction.
When your heating works around your schedule, your property runs cleaner, leaner, and smarter.
Your guests arrive to comfort. You arrive to savings.
That’s what Air Auto Mate was built for — smart heating for smart stays.
Because real innovation isn’t about doing more.
It’s about needing to do less.
