It's Earth Day, and since with a building a Smart Home why not use that smart home to save energy, and a little money.
In this video, I give you three examples of how you could use your smart home to save energy with concrete savings. And tell you how you can join me, If this Than That, and Brian from Automate your life as well as over 20 other of my fellow Content Creators in committing to save energy over the next year-using our smart homes.
