Copeland Announces Launch of Next-Gen Verdant Smart Thermostat, Offers Modern Design and Run Time Reduction

ST. LOUIS (August 13, 2024) – Copeland, a global provider of sustainable climate solutions, announced today it has launched its latest Verdant smart thermostat, the VX4. The Verdant VX4 smart thermostat delivers significant run time reductions and cutting-edge demand response capabilities to commercial and multifamily properties. This latest model also offers a more modern design with fingerprint-resistant glass.

Available in both the North American and European markets, the Verdant VX4 smart thermostat reduces HVAC runtime by dynamically setting back the temperature in empty rooms without disturbing the comfort of occupants.

“This next-generation smart thermostat model offers the same plug-and-play solution as our VX3 model that has helped customers deliver an average of 45% reduction in HVAC runtime, but with a sleeker, more modern design¹,” said Michael Serour, vice president and general manager, Verdant for Copeland. “In hospitality environments, cleanliness is paramount to retaining customers, and the new design with fingerprint-resistant glass provides an anti-smudge surface to achieve a cleaner look.”

With an install base of more than 7,000 hospitality and multi-family properties across North America, Verdant’s offering is a proven solution for substantial energy savings. Copeland recently announced that its Verdant VX3 and ZX smart thermostats received ENERGY STAR certification in the U.S. and Canada, marking another milestone in the company’s commitment to energy efficiency. The new VX4 smart thermostat is currently pending ENERGY STAR certification.

Verdant’s products and services combine advanced occupancy- and thermal-sensing technologies with real-time analytics to ensure optimal energy settings, reducing consumption and maximizing cost savings for building operators without compromising guest comfort.
