Why Network Thermostat
Edge Intelligence for Rapid Response
Network Thermostat processes data right at the device, sometimes called edge intelligence. By reducing reliance on external connectivity, you get real-time insights and immediate adjustments to temperature, humidity, and indoor air quality (IAQ), helping maintain ideal indoor conditions effortlessly.
Connectivity & Protocol Support
Seamlessly connect over Wi-Fi or Ethernet with optional cloud management and support for any existing building systems using industry-standard communication protocols (like BACnet and Modbus). NetX “speaks the same language” as your current network and equipment, maximizing compatibility and protecting your investments.
Scalability & Flexibility
From single-store boutiques to nationwide chains, retail spaces vary enormously in size and design. Network Thermostat adapts to different HVAC configurations, equipment, and building layouts with ease, ensuring you only pay for the features you need today and will grow with you into the future.
Sophisticated Control Strategies
Capabilities such as demand-based ventilation, optimal start/stop, and indoor air quality (IAQ) control allow you to fine-tune HVAC operations for both comfort and efficiency. These strategies automatically adjust system behavior and trigger real-time alerts via text and email for critical information.
Remote Monitoring & Management
Gain instant, secure access to your HVAC systems from anywhere. Our user-friendly interface makes it simple to view performance data, change setpoints, or troubleshoot issues off-site, ultimately reducing man-hours through fewer truck rolls and avoiding needless windshield time.
Easy Deployment & Seemless Retrofit
Deploy NetX thermostats in hours, not days. Our form factor covers common commercial backplate designs, allowing simple swap-outs with minimal rewiring. Optional factory pre-programming and coordinated IT support streamlining rollouts at every scale so your stores stay open and comfortable throughout the installation.
