To kick-off the launch of its new residential product, the ecobee Smart
Si thermostat, and to preview its latest commercial product, the ecobee EMS Si
thermostat,
ecobee
embarked May 17 on a seven-week-long road trip across the United States. Members
of the ecobee team are traveling cross-country in an ecobee-branded RV and will
stop at more than 50 ecobee distributor locations by June 25 to host morning,
lunch and afternoon events for HVAC contractors. During these scheduled events,
the ecobee team conducts live demos of the new Smart Si and EMS Si thermostats,
hosts training sessions, and offers classic breakfasts and fun afternoon
barbecues.
The ecobee RV also makes stops at various local attractions to showcase
the ecobee Smart Si thermostat to consumers, offer giveaways and give live
product demonstrations. For the duration of the cross-country tour, ecobee is
hosting two exciting contests including one for HVAC contractors who attend the
distributor events, and one for consumers who can “Tweet” a photo of the ecobee
RV for a chance to win a new iPad.
The company will be purchasing carbon offsets to
cover all travel associated with the road trip, including both vehicle and air
transportation. Additional information about the ecobee Road Trip, including
event details and contest rules, can be found on ecobee’s Road Trip website at
