ENERGY EFFICIENCY

Green is not just a buzzword; it is a social responsibility that can benefit you, your guests, and the environment.  INNCOM energy management solutions offer financially significant energy savings and an enhanced guest experience while reducing your property's carbon footprint.

Energy is the lodging industry's second-greatest operating cost, with the biggest energy hogs being heating, cooling and lighting.  INNCOM energy management solutions range from low-cost, standalone products to advanced, centrally-controlled systems that can involve lighting and drape controls, as well as situation alerts and property data collecting and reporting.  We can also help your property achieve LEED or ENERGY STAR certification.

INNCOM's lineup of energy management products includes:

e⁴™ Smart Digital Thermostat

Our family of e⁴ Smart Digital Thermostats is designed for energy conservation and guest comfort using programmable, precise, direct digital control (DDC) technology.  The illuminated LCD thermostat can control virtually any commercial fan coil unit or packaged air terminal and be configured as either a stand-alone device or as part of a powerful, centrally-controlled energy management system. Available in wired, battery-operated, compact, and designer models, the e⁴ Smart Digital Thermostat is quick and inexpensive to install, reduces energy costs, and contributes to guest satisfaction.

ecoMODE^®

One of INNCOM's most exciting products is environmentally-friendly, award-winning, patented ecoMODE.  Guests simply press the Green Button on the INNCOM thermostat or control device to opt into the hotel's conservation program.  In addition to instantly triggering the e⁴'s energy-saving mode, the Green Button also activates the guest's participation in the property's sustainability programs, which may include, for example, reduced linen changes and bath amenity replacements.  ecoMODE is available on all models of the e⁴ Smart Digital Thermostat, as well as other INNCOM Integrated Room Automation System (IRAS) devices, such as the Guestroom Digital Assistant and all lighting controls Series.

Occupancy-Based Master Lighting Control

The INNCOM Master Light Switch automatically turns off lighting in un-occupied rooms without ever inconveniencing the guest. When the guest enters the room, the Master Light Switch illuminates a welcome lighting scene; when the guest leaves, all lights turn off. Using smart INNCOM switches and Lamp Control Modules, lighting can be custom programmed to suit your room design.  Additionally, the system is engineered to ensure that light fixtures will work when an occupant wants them to work, regardless of whether the master switch is in the on or off position.
