To celebrate the launch of its new installer programme for electricians, Netatmo offers five great tips to help boost your smart thermostat sales.
1. EVERYBODY WANTS TO SAVE ENERGY
With heating representing approximately a third of overall household expenses (an average of £1,057 per year in the UK), home owners want to control their heating remotely. All you need to do is find out what your customer needs and, like 99% of the British, what they’ll likely want is to reduce their energy bills!
Replacing an old thermostat with a new ‘smart’ one is probably the quickest and cheapest way to cut down their bills.
2. THE NETATMO THERMOSTAT IS SMART
Customers can save as much as 37% on energy with the pre-programmed daily schedule that is easily adaptable. They’ll receive a monthly personalised Energy Savings Report, with consumption history and detailed savings, schedule analysis, a saving comparison to similar households and personalised advice to improve energy efficiency.
The smart thermostat is compatible with the latest technology meaning customers can control their heating using
just their voice with Alexa on Amazon Echo or Siri on iPhone/iPad. With the Auto-Adapt function, the thermostat learns from the weather forecast and home thermal characteristics to set the optimal time to start heating.
The Netatmo smart thermostat is recommended by Which? as a ‘Best Buy’ product. It is compatible with gas, oil, wood boilers and heat pumps.
3. IT’S EASY TO INSTALL
The Netatmo smart thermostat takes just 20 minutes to install. It’s as simple as a traditional thermostat installation and no IT skills are required. Everything is included in the box so you can choose at the last moment if the installation will be wired or wireless.
4. ADD EXTRA VALUE
You can sell a complete heating solution to your customers by adding additional smart radiator valves to take control of individual rooms and save your customers even more energy. These take just 10 minutes to install and, like the smart thermostat, everything is in the box so that you can choose at the last moment whether the same valve will be installed vertically or horizontally.
It’s as easy as a traditional thermostatic valve installation, so no IT skills are required. Netatmo valves are compatible with 90% of hot water radiators.
