Anyone using NON-CENTRAL HVAC (e.g. window air conditioners, electric baseboard heaters)?
In my market of Ocean City, MD, where condominiums are the norm, most smaller condo units have heat and A/C that’s controlled on a room-by room basis.The typical 1 BR condo has two through-the-wall air conditioners (functionally identical to window ACs, except that there’s a dedicated sleeve for them on the outer walls). And for heat, there’s typically 4 electric baseboard radiators, each with its own thermostat.Mysa is the main player in this space for “smart thermostats” that can control electric radiators.Mysa also makes thermostats for controlling “dumb” A/C units (it’s a glorified IR emitter that simulates the handheld remote). Those don’t work tremendously well for A/C units, so whenever I need to replace an A/C unit, I make sure to get an EQK or TCL brand, because those have apps that let you control the A/C remotely. There’s also a third-party app called SmartLife that can generically control wi-fi enabled air conditioners. I bring this up
