4.1 Temperature and Occupancy Detection

The Smart Sensor continuously monitors both temperature and occupancy in its assigned room. When occupancy is detected, the sensor communicates this to your ecobee thermostat. Your thermostat can then prioritize the temperature in that specific room, ensuring comfort where it's needed most. If no occupancy is detected, the thermostat can adjust settings to save energy.
