Experience figures reflect our team’s hands-on work across the industry. Rebate availability and amounts are set by each utility and change often.
Free rebate check: answer in 2 business days.
Send your utility bill and room count; we confirm your rebate in 2 business days. No obligation, and if you go ahead, we handle the filing.
Lower upfront cost, no loan.
Where your utility allows it, you can assign the rebate to Lock-IT and it comes off what you pay up front. Some programs, including TVA EnergyRight and JCP&L, pay us directly. Or keep the check yourself. Your choice, and we handle the paperwork either way.
Built for everyone who runs the building.

You give us the information we need: a recent utility bill, your room or unit count and your HVAC details. We do the rest. We verify your eligibility, complete and submit the applications, coordinate any utility inspections and follow up until your rebate is collected. No forms for your team to chase.
Rebate amounts, approval and timing are set by each utility and can change. We confirm eligibility for your exact address before you commit.
We fit the thermostat to your HVAC, not to a catalog.
A lot of hotels aren’t running just one system. PTACs in the standard rooms. Fan coils in the suites. That one older wing nobody wants to talk about. A one-size-fits-all thermostat in a box doesn’t know any of that, and your engineer finds out on install day.
Install day is the wrong day for surprises. So we look at the HVAC in every room type first, then pick what fits. We’re not tied to any one brand.
HVAC we fit every day
What’s included
One partner, one scope, no gaps between the box and a finished room.
- Room-by-room survey. Every room type, its HVAC, wiring, voltage and Wi-Fi, before anything is ordered.
- Spec and design. The thermostat or GRMS that fits your HVAC, brand standard and budget. Any brand that fits.
- Rebate filing, start to finish. Eligibility, pre-approval, applications, inspections and follow-up until it’s collected.
- Scheduled install. Our crews, planned floor by floor around your occupancy, PIP or construction schedule.
- Commissioning and training. Every room tested, settings dialed in, your team trained and documentation handed over.
- LiveXpert management and support. Every system we install is checked daily through its own back end, with alerts handled and direct contact with your site team for troubleshooting.
Projects we handle
Same team, same process. Only the schedule changes.
Spec it early, commission before opening
We help spec the system early, coordinate with your GC and MEP trades, install at the right stage of the build and commission every room before opening.
Upgrading an open, occupied building
We work room by room and floor by floor around occupancy, so rooms are back in service the same day wherever possible.
On your PIP and renovation schedule
We plan the work around your PIP and renovation schedule, floor by floor, so energy management goes in while the rooms are already offline, with minimal guest disruption.
Hotels, portfolios and apartment communities
Hotels
IHG, Marriott, Hilton, Hyatt, Choice, Wyndham, Best Western, Radisson, Accor, Sonesta, G6 Hospitality (Motel 6), Red Roof, Extended Stay America, plus independent and boutique hotels. Whatever flag you fly, we work from your brand standards and fit the system to your building.
Management companies
One program for the whole portfolio: one point of contact, one price sheet, and a rebate and schedule sheet for each property, across states and provinces.
Multifamily
Apartments, condos and student housing. Vacant units stop heating and cooling empty space, which reduces HVAC runtime and energy use.* Remote control for your maintenance team.
Stop paying to heat and cool empty units.
Between residents, during turns and in units nobody’s checked in weeks, the HVAC keeps running. Smart unit thermostats set back automatically and let your team see and adjust every unit from one screen.
- Vacant-unit and turn setback, automatically
- Remote management for maintenance teams
- In-suite rebates where available, such as Ontario Save on Energy (up to $300 CAD per suite) and FortisBC ($105 CAD per suite)
- New construction, retrofits and unit-turn scheduling
- Network and access control from the same team
Everything your rooms need, under one roof
From the first walk-through to the monthly savings report, it’s the same team.
Smart thermostats & energy management
Occupancy-based guest room and unit thermostats that save energy when nobody’s in the room.
Guest room management systems (GRMS)
HVAC, lighting, door and keycard sensing and PMS integration, working as one system.
Thermostat design & specification
We help you spec the right thermostat for your HVAC and brand standard, before you buy the wrong one.
Turnkey installation
Our crews install and commission every room. Your engineer doesn’t have to.
Network & security
Wi-Fi and cabling your connected thermostats can rely on, plus access control and cameras.
Management & support (LiveXpert)
Every system we install is checked daily through its own back end, alerts handled, and direct contact with your site team to troubleshoot. Training and savings reports, too.
Comfortable guests. Fewer comfort calls.
Saving energy should never cost you a happy guest. Rooms are at the right temperature when guests walk in, and guests have full control while they’re in the room. Every system we install is continuously managed by LiveXpert, and we check every system daily, so issues get caught and fixed before guests notice.
- The right temperature on arrival. Rooms are comfortable when guests walk in.
- Full control in the room. Guests set the temperature they want while they’re in.
- Fewer comfort calls. Fewer “my room is too hot” calls and complaints at the front desk.
- Continuously managed by LiveXpert. Our sister company reviews every client account daily through each manufacturer’s own back end, manages the alerts and contacts your site team directly to troubleshoot.

Enter a few numbers for a quick, conservative estimate of what occupancy-based guestroom controls could save. Typical savings are 20–35% of guestroom HVAC energy with a 12–18 month payback. Results vary. No email required, and no pricing.
Results vary. This is a rough, conservative estimate, not a quote or guarantee. It assumes guestroom heating and cooling is only part of your electric bill (about 15–30% depending on HVAC type) and applies the 20–35% savings range from manufacturer-published studies to that share only. Your real savings depend on utility rates, climate, occupancy, HVAC condition and available rebates. We confirm your numbers during the free assessment. Your property may qualify for 74 verified utility rebate programs and more.
