When combined,__LT_무시_8_0__-BHcontrols heating intelligently, while__LT_무시_3_0__-2Xmonitors exactly how much energy is used — giving you total control and transparency.
How Smart Heating and Energy Monitoring Save Real Money
The__LT_무시_8_0__-BHand__LT_무시_3_0__-2Xwork together as a closed-loop energy optimization system.
Let’s break down the science of how this combination saves power — and how much you can actually save.
1. The Science Behind Smart Heating Efficiency
Traditional baseboard thermostats use simple on/off cycling:
- When temperature drops below a threshold, the heater turns on.
- When it rises, the heater shuts off. This method wastes energy due totemperature overshootinganduneven room heating.
By contrast,EcoNet-BH’s adaptive algorithmlearns your usage patterns and ambient heat loss rate. It usespulse-width modulation (PWM)to deliver micro-bursts of current that maintain steady comfort without over-heating.
At the same time,__LT_무시_3_0__-2Xtracks power at thecircuit level, detecting inefficiencies such as:
- Heaters running longer than expected.
- Voltage imbalance between split-phase lines (L1/L2).
- Unusual consumption during off-peak hours.
Together, they provide bothcontrol (EcoNet-BH)andvisibility (WattPanel-2X)— the two key ingredients of true home energy intelligence.
2. Real-World Energy Savings
Field data collected from Grus.io’s 2024 pilot homes in the northern U.S. and Canada show the following results:
| 주택 유형 | 제어 유형 | Avg. Monthly Usage (kWh) | Avg. Bill (USD) | Energy Saved | Cost Saved |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Apartment (1,200 sq ft) | Manual Thermostat | 820 kWh | $130 | — | — |
| Apartment (1,200 sq ft) | EcoNet-BH + WattPanel-2X | 670 kWh | $105 | 18% | $25 / month |
| Single-Family Home (2,000 sq ft) | Manual Thermostat | 1,250 kWh | $198 | — | — |
| Single-Family Home (2,000 sq ft) | EcoNet-BH + WattPanel-2X | 1,000 kWh | $158 | 20% | $40 / month |
| Vacation Cabin (1,000 sq ft) | Manual Thermostat | 900 kWh | $142 | — | — |
| Vacation Cabin (1,000 sq ft) | EcoNet-BH + WattPanel-2X | 730 kWh | $117 | 19% | $25 / month |
Average saving:17–21%, depending on climate and occupancy schedule.

Real-Life Use Case: Smart Heating in Action
Case Study: A Family in Vermont
The Henderson family lived in a 1,800 sq. ft. home heated entirely by electric baseboards.
Before upgrading, they used old dial thermostats and had no idea how much each room consumed.
After installing__LT_무시_8_0__-BHthermostats in three zones and a__LT_무시_3_0__-2Xin their breaker panel, they observed:
- 🔹Monthly savings:~19% on energy bills after two months.
- 🔹Improved comfort:Consistent temperature across rooms, fewer cold spots.
- 🔹Better awareness:They could see exact consumption from theGrus.io App.
- 🔹ROI:The system paid for itself inunder one winter season.
“We never realized how much energy we wasted until we saw the live data,” said Mr. Henderson. “Now we heat smarter — not harder.”
