I recently purchased a small studio flat and thought that it is the perfect place to make a smart home since I will only need to control a few things.
I have already ordered my light switches and am still contemplating my blinds.
But my biggest concern is my airconditioning as I stay in the desert and it becomes quite unbearable during summer I normally left the AC on the whole day in my rental apartment.
But since this AC works on electricity only I figured I wanted to make it smart and only want it to cool a 15 minutes before I normally arrive back home.
My thermostat though is a communicating one and so far the only one I am seeing is the Lennox iComfort S30, but I don’t know if it is compatible with what I currently have. The videos I looked at said the companies should be sister companies for compatibility but I couldn’t find out how to check that.
This is my current thermostat
Has anyone else tried to do something similar?
Edit: This is what is on top of the roof of the apartments and each has 1 or more of these
Each apartment has their own control over the temperature with the controller in their apartment. I updated the the pictures in the original post to show what is on the roof. The unit in each apartment controls the fan and I think the rooftop unit.
