Occupancy sensors that can tell if a person has been away to conserve energy, when they are not at home
- Learning algorithms that avoid the need to program a set schedule.
- Ability for homeowners to control the heating and cooling system remotely through their wireless apps on their phones or tablets.
- Feedback notifications on the energy-saving potential of your thermostat set point and other efficient settings.
