Copeland updates Verdant smart thermostat

USA: Copeland’s latest Verdant smart thermostat, the VX4, is said to deliver significant run time reductions and cutting-edge demand response capabilities to commercial and multifamily properties.

According to Copeland, this latest model also offers a more modern design with fingerprint-resistant glass.

Available in both the North American and European markets, the Verdant VX4 smart thermostat reduces HVAC runtime by dynamically setting back the temperature in empty rooms without disturbing the comfort of occupants.

“This next-generation smart thermostat model offers the same plug-and-play solution as our VX3 model that has helped customers deliver an average of 45% reduction in HVAC runtime, but with a sleeker, more modern design,” said Michael Serour, vice president and general manager, Verdant for Copeland. 

“In hospitality environments, cleanliness is paramount to retaining customers, and the new design with fingerprint-resistant glass provides an anti-smudge surface to achieve a cleaner look.”
