Aquarius Brands – Retrax Solar Solutions

Most solar panel installations are fairly permanent.  The problem is that people who invest in solar power are not able to easily relocate their investment if they choose to move.  The Retrax Solar system was designed to alleviate some of the negative aspects of investing in solar power.

Retrax Solar Solutions are built for convenience.  The package comes ready to install.  It is prewired upon arrival and able to be setup and activated within 30 minutes.  The panels are able to be shipped by truck, and there is no in-depth construction required.

Lennox – iComfort S30

A step ahead of the programmable thermostats, the iComfort S30 utilizes the technology of geofencing monitoring.  The geofencing helps the iComfort thermostat determine whether or not there are people in the room.  Based on that information, the system automatically adjusts the temperature of the home accordingly.

The iComfort system monitors outdoor temperatures and humidity, so the temperature displayed on the thermostat’s screen is actually what it feels like in the room.  It also monitors the outdoor air quality, according to the home’s zip code, and adjusts automatically to clean and filter the home’s air.
