Energy Management Made Easy. Reduce energy consumption, save energy and live more comfortably.
Save Energy
Heating and cooling consumes more than 1/2 of the energy used in the home in many areas of the United States. Preventing 10 minutes of air conditioning a day saves as much as replacing a typical incandescent light bulb with a compact fluorescent bulb for four hours. Emme's advanced control techniques, like Smart Circulation, save energy and money. Use all of Emme's features, and you could save up to 30% on your heating and cooling costs.
More Comfort
Emme's advanced sensing and control capabilities improve comfort compared to what's available with a standard thermostat. By measuring the temperature in several different rooms around your house, it can determine when circulating air is more appropriate than heating or cooling. The result: a more comfortable home that uses less energy.
Easy to Use
Emme's 7-inch, color display is big enough to easily see, even if you don’t have your best eyes on. Its touch interface is intuitive and responsive for effortless control. It even tells you what it’s doing and why its doing it, giving you clear control and understanding. On-screen help and wizards prevents hours of searching for your users manual.
Control the Temperature Where You Live
Three wireless temperature sensors measure the temperature where you live—not in the hallway. You can tell Emme which parts of your home are more important to you at different times of day. For example, use the sensor in your bedroom at night and the sensor in the family room during the day. Monitoring the temperature in multiple locations allows the use of advanced techniques like Smart Circulation, which reduces temperature differences between floors.
Reduce Temperature Differences
It’s an age-old problem—upstairs is always much warmer than downstairs. In the summer it's almost unbearable. By using multiple wireless sensors Emme can see temperature differentials as they develop. To more effectively mix the air between cold and hot areas, Emme can use higher speeds of circulation that virtually all air handlers support but aren't available through a standard thermostat. In many homes this feature can help eliminate the large temperature spread between floors.
Setback Without the Sacrifice
We all know that turning down your thermostat while you're away at work is a great way to save 10% on your heating and cooling bills; it's a simple concept called a setback. Unfortunately most heating and cooling systems don't recover from a setback quick enough. Instead of returning to a comfortable home after a long day at work it's still too hot or too cold. Emme's different; it uses weather forecasts and temperature data to ensure your home is comfortable every time you return home.
No More Surprises
Emme’s advanced sensing and modeling of your home, combined with its optional HVAC sensor, allows it to constantly monitor the health of your heating and cooling equipment. In the event of a problem you’ll receive on-screen, text and email alerts. Emme alerts help you keep your heating and cooling equipment operating at peak efficiency and reduce the chance of an unexpected failure.
Connect From Anywhere
Emme is Wi-Fi enabled and can connect to the internet through your home's wireless network. This allows you to monitor and control your Emme system from any device with a web browser. From your smart phone to a computer in your home office, now you can control your home's heating and cooling from just about anywhere. Emme can even be configured to notify you via e-mail or text message if it detects a serious problem with your equipment.
