How Enercare’s HVAC Performance Monitoring Works
Enercare HPM monitors the performance of your HVAC system against the settings on your thermostat and sends a continuous stream of data to our servers using the Enercare Smarter Home® hub.
If your furnace or air conditioner takes too long to reach the pre-set temperature, stays on longer than it should or exhibits other unusual behaviours, our artificial intelligence identifies the issue, analyzes its severity and alerts our monitoring teams. You also get an alert notification through the Enercare Smarter Home® web portal, plus an email from our team that describes what’s going on.
If the issue is serious, one of our technicians will contact you to troubleshoot or book a service appointment as soon as possible.
