Franchise owner, Alex, can also turn lights and AC units on and off from his smart phone from anywhere! Nest learns what temperature Yogurtland likes and builds a schedule around it. Nest also sends regularly Energy summary usage reports to track savings. Yogurtland Promenade also stocks three Energy Star® refrigeration units. Nest is the first thermostat to achieve ENERGY STAR. Additional climate action successes include retrofitting lights to LED and installing motion sensors in restrooms after participating in SoCal Edison’s Direct Install Program.
