I installed digital thermostats and had the windows professionally cleaned (the tenants loved that).

I suggest Ring Doorbell2.My automation for AirBnB has:1) Ring doorbell2.2) Smart Thermostat.3) Window and door sensors.4) Yale Smart lock.5) Water leak sensors and smart fire alarm.Once these things are connected by a hub, then you can do automation.

Mine can set door codes, message (or call) guests, schedule cleaners, adjust the thermostat, monitor my cameras, & call a plumber just as easily as a local PM can, for 1% of the costI wrote much more about leveraging offshore assistants in this post here.

As winter approached, we all know about all the phone calls we get from tenants that the heat is not heating up the apartment enough, not to mention the big percentage of them that when we come to check it out the windows are open< ,but I was looking for an accurate thermostat that I can carry around and get the accurate temperature to know what the temperature really is.

Total damage $720-The heater didn't work because my thermostat wasn't compatible with my HVAC unit.

Basically every thermostat has wires that turn on and off a pump and a switch to allow flow from the furnace. 

=======Renter seems "inexperianced" in life.Nothing out of the ordinary for someone inexperienced in life.And not everyone is comfortable with electricity--even throwing breakers--but a $400 bill for a breaker flip might make them want to try to get comfortable (PM's handyman's time + PM's time charge for handling it).Coach the renter on how to be a good renter and Collect the rent.Stove knob broken, door lock not working on bathroom, leaking fixtures, ants (or other crawlies) inside the unit, wonky thermostat, warm fridge, ice maker broken, garbage disposal not turning, etc.. expect calls for these things--and provide good customer service for the renters money.Good Luck!

I'm looking for recommendations for a WIFI programmable keypad doorlock and thermostat.

I recently installed two Honeywell smart thermostats in my properties.
