Wiser Home Energy Monitor

Whether for environmental or economic reasons (or perhaps even both), homeowners are increasingly interested in energy efficiency. Key to reducing energy use is the ability to monitor your consumption, and to make to adjustments where necessary.  

A Wiser Home Energy Monitor puts real-time energy usage updates in a homeowners’ hands via an easy-to-use app. In addition to 24/7 monitoring, the system also sends users alerts if appliances are left on, or things like the garage door open unexpectedly.
 
From an installer’s perspective, this beneficial upgrade couldn’t be easier to offer. A Wiser Home Energy Monitor can be installed in a new or existing panel in 30 minutes or less. The only equipment you’ll need are your screwdrivers and a 15- or 30-amp 2-pole circuit breaker. If there’s no room to add an extra breaker, the low draw (5 milliamps) device can be wired to an existing breaker. And if the unit won’t fit inside the panel, an external mounting bracket is included in the packaging.

For homes generating solar power, there’s an add-on sensor package that provides homeowners with 24/7 monitoring of production and consumption so that they can make the most of their investment in green energy and environmental sustainability.  

At the end of installation, an audible signal indicates if it was done correctly. Once you hear that signal, all you have to do is show your clients how to install the free Sense Home Energy Monitor app and start saving money.​
