Energy Management Made Easy
Emme provides easy-to-use energy management devices that help you save money and lower your home’s carbon footprint. If we can improve your comfort at the same time, so much the better. All of Emme’s offerings embody four core principles:
-
Keep It Simple
We firmly believe that once you see where you’re energy is going, you’ll be able to manage its use more efficiently. We also know that if something’s too complicated, it doesn’t get used. You remember all those VCR’s blinking 12 o’clock? That’s why we strive to make our products effortless to operate. You don’t want to spend hours trying to decipher your home’s energy use, so we break it down into terms you can understand and simple suggestions that are easy to implement.
-
Stay Connected
Sometimes all that stands between you and saving money is a timely update or the ability to control your heating and cooling remotely. That’s why all Emme products are Wi-Fi enabled so you can manage them from anywhere using a web browser. Did you forget to turn down the thermostat before you left on vacation? No problem—connect remotely and turn down the temperature from your favorite pool-side chair.
Save as Much as Possible
You might think that changing from incandescent to florescent light bulbs will have a big impact on your energy consumption, but the fact is lighting only makes up about 10% of the average home’s total energy use. While we applaud swapping bulbs, we want bigger results. At Emme, we make every effort to save you as much as possible. That’s why we incorporated powerful heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) control into every Emme Core. HVAC consumes almost ½ of the energy used by a typical home; saving 20% on HVAC is like eliminating lighting all together.

Make It Painless
Stop using all electrical devices and it would obviously reduce your utility bills, but the impact on your lifestyle would be extreme. Emme takes the pain out of reducing energy use, and in some cases it actually makes you more comfortable. For example, Emme’s Smart Circulation keeps temperatures better balanced while reducing the need to use heating and cooling. Emme’s electricity monitor can alert you to parasitic electrical devices that consume electricity even when they are turned off. There’s enough “low hanging fruit” in the average household that with Emme’s help, you should be able to reduce your energy consumption 10-20% without impacting your day-to-day life.
