World's First INSTEON Thermostat Adapter is Compatible with Totaline / Venstar Thermostats

martLabs, Inc. has announced the launch of its second new INSTEON-compatible product of 2008: the INSTEON Thermostat Adapter. This simple snap-in adapter connects in seconds to Totaline / Venstar T1700, T1800, or T1900 programmable thermostats, allowing easy remote control of the temperature from any INSTEON-compatible controller.

Setup takes just a couple of minutes, and once programmed, this system allows one-button access to heating or cooling to specific temperatures. Adding INSTEON control to programmable thermostats increases energy and cost savings by allowing for more advanced timing schedules and allows more flexible manual temperature control from multiple locations in the home, as well.

"We're really excited about the addition of the Thermostat Adapter to our family of INSTEON products," said Laurie Maroni, SmartLabs VP, Marketing. "Connecting the adapter to a programmable thermostat expands INSTEON remote control to HVAC systems, adding personal comfort to whole-house scenes, controlled from anywhere in the home."

Pre-orders for the INSTEON Thermostat Adapter are being accepted at Smarthome.com starting at $99.99. Compatible Totaline / Venstar thermostats are also available through Smarthome.com.
