No. Unlike motion sensors used by competitors, the Anacove thermostat uses multiple sensors and PMS information so it never relies on a single trigger to judge occupancy.  This keeps HVAC running at night, so guests never wake up to a stuffy or overheated room.

Anacove's robust wireless connection is built for high density systems like hotels, maintaining a 100% connection rate. Dropped connections are rare and the system automatically reconnects without impacting the guest or requiring your staff's attention.

Anacove thermostats last 5 years on a single battery, well beyond the 12-18 month cycle of other smart thermostats. Per-room battery life is visible on the dashboard, and engineering gets advance notice before a unit dies, so replacements happen during routine PM rounds, not as emergency fixes.

Anacove targets 55% humidity or below whenever conditions allow, continuously adjusting as humidity load shifts with the season and occupancy.

Occupancy sensing picks up the guest immediately and the room begins recovering toward the occupied set point. Guests are always free to adjust the set point themselves at any time. Since Anacove is integrated with the PMS, the system can also pre-condition a room ahead of a scheduled arrival, so recovery time in practice is often much shorter.

Anacove offers optional balcony door and window sensors for maximal energy savings and humidity control. The system also works without them, using our multi-sensor occupancy sensing to fill the gap.

No. The HVAC system quickly recovers to the guest set point. Anacove properties have not seen a dip in guest satisfaction scores tied to setback recovery.

Anacove recommends 65-69°F for heating and 72-77°F for cooling in occupied rooms as a starting point. These ranges are configured centrally through the dashboard, and can be adjusted as needed by the property. 

Every Anacove thermostat is networked to the central dashboard, letting staff adjust set points property-wide or room-by-room (VIP mode), confirm occupancy, and manage alerts, all from one screen, with no need to walk the floor.

Deploying Anacove thermostats gives your property more than climate control — you're deploying an IoT network that integrates with your PMS to support broader guest room automation, including lighting, shades, TVs, smoking detection, leak detection, staff alerts buttons, and luggage cart finders.
