The Technology
Traditional HVAC systems rely on thermostat commands to manage temperature, but smart thermostats provide remote control through smartphone apps. However, Ectotem’s innovation outperforms existing methods by utilizing a sophisticated communication network.
At the core of Ectotem lies the smart air panel with electronically controlled louvers, enhancing precision temperature control. This panel communicates with a portable tag carried by users, which in turn interfaces with a smart thermostat and mobile app. The panel dynamically adjusts airflow direction towards the tag’s location, optimizing comfort and energy efficiency.
Users can set their preferred temperature using the smartphone app. When they enter a room with an Ectotem tag, the system detects the temperature and determines their location. If the temperature deviates from the set point, Ectotem instructs the thermostat to turn on the HVAC system. The smart air panel then directs the airflow to the tag. Once the room achieves the appropriate temperature, Ectotem informs the smart thermostat to turn off the HVAC system. This seamless process ensures precise temperature regulation and optimal comfort levels throughout the home. With Ectotem, users can enjoy efficient and customized climate control with minimal effort.
