Frequently Asked Questions
Question 1:
Do I have to register the product in order to use the thermostat?
By registering the prod
uct, it gives you the ability to monitor and control your home’s temperature and
energy use from anywhere anytime, plus a series of great tools that help you optimize the temperature
control, evaluate your home’s energy efficiency, and receive recommendations for saving energy and
money with home improvements and retrofits.
Of course, the thermostat still provides basic temperature control functionalities even without registering it
online, but you will not be able to program it or control it remotely. Therefore, we strongly encourage you
to register the product online before you use it.
Question 2:
Can the thermostat be used without the Smart Home Gateway?
Yes, the Smart Thermostat can be used without the Smart Home Gateway. However, The Smart Home
Gateway provides the internet access for the Smart Thermostat, so you will be able to enjoy all the
benefits outlined in the answer to the last question. Without Smart Home Gateway, you will not be able to
program the Smart Thermostat neither over your smart phone nor through the website. Therefore, we
strongly encourage you to set up the Smart Home Gateway before using the thermostat.
