Every aspect of HVAC systems grows smarter all the time. A.O. Smith Corp. has been promoting the connected features of its name-brand water heaters, as well as its Lochinvar offerings. The connectivity improves both peace of mind and system efficiency.
Connected features have come a long way. Matt Schulz, senior manager of commercial new product development at A.O. Smith, said the early connected features on the company’s products were for sending alerts. Schulz said it has evolved into much more than that.
