Thermostat or the first step in full home automation?

I am regularly amazed at the pace of change in the home heating and cooling industry.  Take thermostats for example.  Why just make your home hotter or cooler when you can make it custom?

What do I mean?  We all know modern thermostats can be controlled from your phone or tablet.  But did you know you can extend that to your lights, the garage door or a full home security system?

The Nexia thermostat from Trane offers a complete home automation suit that is fully customizable to your home.  With easy to connect accessories, the do it yourselfer can easily expand the system to include flood protection from broken pipes and HD security cameras.  Want to know when the kids get home from school?  Install the z wave enable locks from Schlage to be notified whenever their door code is used.

With Amazon’s home helper Echo, you can even control your thermostat and the rest of your home with the sound of your voice.

At this rate, your central furnace and A/C are about to become the coolest tech in your house!
