This not only enhances comfort but also significantly contributes to energy savings by directing heating or cooling where it's needed most.



  • More Comfort: Identify and eliminate unwanted hot or cold spots.
  • More Savings: Direct conditioned air only where it is needed.
  • More Convenience: Intelligent Temperature Sensor (ITS) technology adds an extra switch for air conditioning in each room.
  • More Control for Everyone: Empower everyone to set their preferred temperature.
