Outer Banks Homeowners: Tired of those Ridiculously HIGH Summer Electric Bills?

I met David Lowe when he agreed to do an OBX Testimonial. David is the owner of ControlTemp Thermostats, an innovative company that sells thermostats where you can control the temperature of your rental house even when you are not there. Tired of those astronomical summer electric bills? Well, here is your chance to cut those bills from 10 - 20%. And, until March 1, David has agreed to give an additional 10% discount to any Outer Banks Revealed reader off the already low price of $69.99 for the CT100. When checking out, just type in revealed to the coupon area to get that additional discount. So why wait? Start saving now!

Innovative Tamper Proof Thermostat Limits Temperature Settings to Prevent Energy Waste

PARSIPPANY, N.J. - January 20, 2010 - Property owners around the nation are all too familiar with the skyrocketing utility costs from wasted heating and cooling usage in their properties. Today, ControlTemp Thermostats is introducing a new lower-priced tamper proof thermostat designed to help property managers unleash technology to reduce property utility costs.

The intelligently designed CT100 thermostat is a simple, effective way to reduce utility costs in leased office space, retail space, apartments, and vacation homes where the property owner not the tenant pays the utility bills. The seven day programmable tamper proof thermostat has a built in maximum heat limit of 72 degrees and a minimum air conditioning temperature of 75 degrees. These settings still allow the tenant to be comfortable by being able to make small temperature adjustments however the maximum and minimum settings prevent excessive energy waste commonly found in the rental market today ...

The key with the CT100 thermostat is that the temperature limits for heating and cooling are hard coded into the unit and can't be changed or tampered with by the tenants. The CT100 also has a seven day programmable schedule. The schedule is preset to the EnergyStar guidelines to automatically adjust the thermostat temperature setting throughout the day and on weekends. The schedule feature can drive significant savings by ensuring that the temperature is adjusted when the space is unoccupied.

"Our analysis, developed using tools by the Department of Energy and the Environmental Protection Agency, estimated that landlords and property managers can reduce their heating and cooling costs as much as 32 percent by using the CT100 programmable tamper proof thermostats compared to a non-programmable thermostat," said David Lowe.

The thermostats can also help property managers qualify their properties as "Green." The reduced energy consumption from installing a CT100 thermostat can lead to reducing a property's Carbon Footprint by as much as 2,000lbs per year. In addition, due to the seven day programming capability, the CT100 may qualify for energy rebates as high as $100 per unit from many local utilities and government agencies.
