Before founding ecobee in 2007, Stuart had resolved to start programming his thermostat as a way of reducing his family's carbon footprint and saving money. But it turned out that programming his thermostat was much harder than he could have imagined. In the age of iPhones and smart cars, why would something that's supposed to make life
easier be so hard to use? Turns out not even an Engineering degree could help you figure out how to program the average thermostat! When Stuart and his family came home one winter day to find their house freezing, they'd had enough. He knew there had to be a better way, and ecobee was born.
