Smart thermostat grant

Designed to optimize your comfort and peace of mind, smart thermostats are an effective way of managing your energy use. The new thermostat is connected to a Wi-Fi network, letting you control your heating and air conditioning system remotely via the Internet or a mobile app.

Benefits of smart thermostat

A household’s average power consumption will vary based on different factors that include weather conditions, the dwelling’s age and size, its number of occupants and the price of fuel. In Québec, heating alone accounts for 64% of a household’s total energy costs.1 Once properly programmed, your smart thermostat will help you reduce your energy consumption. Easy to use, smart thermostats adapt to your lifestyle, affording comfort, flexibility and savings.
