How Does it Work?
Replace your current wall-mounted thermostats with our Halo/S™-enabled devices. Then connect one of our gateway devices to your home networking router or Internet modem. Use any computer, tablet, smartphone or other device with a modern Web browser to connect to the interface portal and begin configuring your home climate system for maximum efficiency. Paragon Robotics products integrate with the HVAC equipment you already own, saving you even more time and money.
Expandable Software
Halo/S™-enabled devices are also programmable with practically any algorithm imaginable. Our revolutionary app system allows you to download or even develop your own apps and install them on your devices, giving you complete control over how your system operates. We host regular contests to attract developers to create more efficient programs. The winning entries are freely available for everyone to download and install on their system.
Advanced Algorithms
Out of the box, our thermostats can reduce energy costs an upwards of 40% over any other system on the market today. Some of the standard algorithms capable of reducing costs and increasing efficiency include ones that:
- use weather forecasts to notify you when to open/close windows
- adjust HVAC usage during peak electricity rates and “pre-cool” the building to reduce energy usage during the most expensive periods
- utilize advanced comfort models to reduce HVAC usage based on humidity
- estimate room air temperature stratification to optimize comfort levels
- work with our intuitive setup wizard to make sure your home isn't heated or cooled any more than is necessary to maintain comfort with our unlimited time-based programming capability
- learn about your building's insulation properties to provide you accurate energy cost estimates for the following week, based on weather forecasts.
