Why Should I Choose Energy Eye™?

Why Choose Energy Eye™?

As you might imagine we are quite aware that the task of choosing an energy management solution is daunting. When a energy user decides that the timing is right to purchase energy management equipment they often have to go through a laborious process. This includes contacting vendors, listening to sales reps talk about how great their product is and how unbelievable your energy savings will be once you start using it! The process is eerily similar to buying a new car. At Energy Eye™ we understand this and as it coincides with our company mission, we want to make this a simpler process. The truth is, most (guestroom) energy management equipment works very similarly. Each vendor has a slightly different approach to the end result but total maximum savings benefit will not be greatly affected from one equipment to another. As we see it the true difference lies in three key points:

Reliability
Installation
Guest or User Satisfaction

These points are what makes the difference between the Energy Eye™ System and other available products.

1. Reliability - The Energy Eye™ System is comprised of over 40% USA made parts, including all of the most key components. All PCB assembly is quality tested before its ever shipped and we have experienced less than a 5% defect rate on all parts. On top of that we offer the industries best warranty of 2 years or estimated ROI term, whichever is longer. Additionally, because our components are separate, if one is damaged or broken the whole system doesn't need to be replaced.

2. Installation - The Energy Eye™ System is probably the easiest installed equipment available. Because we have an RF based wireless platform the sensor components don't require complicated and invasive wiring. Our relay control is easily installed and once the job specific installation is optimized, it can be achieved in under 20 minutes per room, in real time. We won't tell you its going to take an hour and then end up taking 4 days or even 40. The problem with these types of equipment is once you've bought one and its going in, if the installation takes much longer than the vendor predicted, there is not a whole lot you can do other than get frustrated. A very important factor we never forget to mention is that by installing this product between room checkouts you don't have to block out rooms and cut into valuable revenues. An un-rented room for one additional day can double your ROI period!

3. Guest or User Satisfaction - Most importantly, Energy Eye™ is probably the best available product for keeping guests happy. Because of our smart logic and sensor platform it is very hard for the system to cause a problem that would allow the HVAC to turn off while the guest is in the room (while sleeping for example). In fact, there is only one sequence of events that will allow the HVAC to turn off (or into setback)! Many of our competitors products designs are inherently faulty in that they must see a continuous motion in the room. Often they overcome this with various timing or temperature regression systems. Unfortunately this often results in a guest having to "get up and wave their arms" in the middle of the night while trying to sleep. An unhappy guest is truly your biggest expense! If you multiply out lost future revenue of that guest, room comps, word of mouth etc... its very hard to offset with savings. The Energy Eye™ System will never have that problem. It only needs to see the guest move once, as they walk into the room, before it "locks" into an occupied state and allows them full control!

Finally, around the world, electricity usage is one of the highest operating expenses the hospitality industry incurs. By reducing wasted guest room electricity, hotels and motels alike will save 25% to 40% on their electricity costs, increase the life of their HVAC units and most importantly, increase bottom-line profits.
