Energy costs are one of the most expensive monthly items for consumer households. Now consumers can dramatically cut heating and cooling costs by installing Hunter Fan’s new Universal Internet Thermostat, which is controlled in-home or remotely with a smartphone app.
Consumers can save an average of $180 a year using a programmable thermostat according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. Hunter Fan’s Universal Internet Thermostat is one of the most affordable programmable thermostat controlled by a smartphone retailing for only $99.99. The first three months of internet connectivity are free, as part a 100% risk-free trial. Consumers can opt to pay $9.99 a year for internet connectivity or pay a $49.99 one-time fee for product life-time internet connectivity.
With Hunter Fan’s native app for iPhone*, iPad* and iPod* smart devices and tablets as well as my.hunterfan.com for use with all other devices, consumers can control their Universal Internet Thermostat to fit their needs and busy lifestyles. Subscribers can also set their devices to receive email alerts when a home’s temperature exceeds a pre-determined set point, indicating an issue that may lead to pipe freezing or mold building, or when it’s time to change the filter or battery level is low.
The Universal Internet Thermostat is compatible with a broad range of heating and cooling systems, and with Hunter Fan’s 5 Minute Installation™ system everything you need is already in the box. There is a built in level on the thermostat, color coded wire terminals and self-anchoring screws making installation quick and easy. It was easy enough that I installed this myself! Connecting to the internet is as simple as connecting the gateway to your wireless router, plugging it into a power source and when the light turns green the thermostat is connected to the internet.
A few of the advantages of this thermostat:
Multiple Location & Device Management — Have a vacation home you need to monitor? How about a parent’s home you’d like to help control? Anywhere you have a Universal Internet Thermostat installed it can be managed through the smartphone app. So whether you’re headed to your vacation home and need to lower the air or you want to help your parent set their thermostat schedule, you have the flexibility to do it – all from the palm of your hand. I love that we can control this in the car when driving home from our many trips to Green Bay. Bill has tried this from his work (which is an hour from the house), and it works perfectly. The only bad thing is that he can see when I’ve turned up the heat during the day!
Unlimited Scheduling — With our busy lives, and with more than one person in a household, things get complicated. The Universal Internet Thermostat allows for flexible and unlimited scheduling for every day of the week.
Sharing — Does more than one person in your household need the flexibility of controlling your thermostat settings? Or perhaps you’ve let friends have your condo for the week? With the Universal Internet Thermostat, you can invite family members and friends to help control your thermostat.
Weather Forecasts — View combined forecasts for all locations without having to look anywhere else to figure it out.
Alerts — Set up alerts if battery life is low, filter needs to be changed, or if a predetermined temperature set point is exceeded. For example, when a home’s temperature drops or raises to a pre-determined set point this can indicate that something is wrong with the heating and cooling system.
We’ve had some time to use this in our home. First, installation is as easy as they say it is. We had this up in running in about 5 minutes. Bill can adjust and schedule the temperature from work (or the car), and I can override any of the settings when I am at home. The thermostat is beyond easy to use and works great.
