5 Technologies Driving the Future of Smart Home Systems

In today’s day and age, every part of our lives is connected. Including our homes.

Where smart homes were once considered a distant reality, for many people, they are now the norm. And one key aspect of a smart home is that the essential systems that keep them running—think your HVAC and water heating systems—are made up of smart equipment, too. 

Let’s explore the five key technology advancements driving the next era of smart home systems and what they mean for homeowners.

5 Ways to Save Energy with a Smart Thermostat

Your home’s smart thermostat doesn’t only manage home temperatures. It’s a tool you can use to control and monitor your home’s energy use. And with heating and cooling accounting for about half of an average home’s energy usage, according to the Department of Energy, making sure that your HVAC system is working efficiently can come with big cost savings.

Using a smart thermostat like the Rheem’s EcoNet® Smart Thermostat is an easy way to ensure that your HVAC system is working at peak performance.

As the world ventures into the era of connected everything, HVAC is no exception.

Historically, homeowners could only change and monitor their home temperatures from a physical thermostat. But today, Rheem®’s EcoNet® smart monitoring system allows home comfort from wherever they are with a smart thermostat and connected app.

With the latest in sensor and smart technology, the Wi-Fi-enabled EcoNet® platform offers homeowners a new level of energy savings and maximum home comfort.
