1.0 Welcome

Congratulations on the purchase of your new Smart Energy Thermostat! The thermostat is designed to help you save money and conserve energy. When connected to a smart meter, you can use the product to get real-time access to information about energy consumption in your home so you can make more informed decisions and better manage your energy use.

This thermostat may have been installed in conjunction with a plan from your utility designed to help you save money and/or to ensure grid reliability. Two prevalent utility plans are:

• DIRECT LOAD CONTROL PLAN

In a Direct Load Control (DLC) plan, you voluntarily allow your utility company to control major appliances in your home when demand for electricity peaks. These instances of peak demand are called “utility events” and when they occur, the utility will take action, such as adjusting the thermostat temperature or cycling your air conditioner on and off, for the duration of the event. These events are relatively infrequent and under most circumstances, you will have the option to opt in or opt out of the event. (To view thermostat features exclusive to Direct Load Control plan customers, see page 24-26.)

• TIERED PRICING PLAN

In a tiered pricing plan, electricity rates fluctuate with demand during the course of each day. You can determine - in advance - how you want your thermostat to respond when prices change. You may decide it’s worth giving up a few degrees of comfort to save money when rates reach a certain level. (To view thermostat features exclusive to Tiered Pricing plan customers, see page 20-23.)
