Zusammenfassung:A temperature control system is provided for a multi-occupancy building. The temperature control system uses a plurality of mobile devices, for example mobile telephones or tablet computers, which connect to a multiple-access-point wireless data network within the building. The wireless access points provide a controller with details of devices connected to each access point, so that occupancy of each heating/cooling zone can be estimated. The mobile devices can be used by occupants to send messages to the controller requesting increases or decreases in temperature much like a voting system. In this way, the temperature of heating/cooling zones within the building may be regulated taking into account the preferences of all occupants.
