Clayton home building facilities are rolling out the ENERGY STAR^® certified ecobee3 lite in all Clayton Built^® homes ordered nationwide. The ecobee4 will also be available as an upgrade in select Clayton Built^® homes across the U.S.

“ecobee was founded on the belief that people everywhere deserve access to innovative technology that has the power to transform everyday life,” said ecobee Founder and CEO Stuart Lombard.  “We are excited to partner with Clayton and offer even more families a better way to save energy and money without sacrificing comfort or convenience.”

ecobee’s smarter algorithms and advanced sensing technology empower homeowners to live comfortably and save money on their energy bills. ecobee has estimated that, to date, it has helped homeowners save enough energy to take the City of Miami off the grid for a year.**

 “As it becomes harder for the average American family to achieve homeownership, we continue to offer energy efficient features that were once considered a luxury within affordable housing,” said Kevin Clayton, CEO of Clayton. “Aligning with a leader like ecobee in the smart home space allows us to continue fulfilling our company purpose of opening doors to a better life.”

Likeminded leaders in their respective industries, Clayton and ecobee believe everyone has the right to access affordable, energy efficient homeownership designed to promote long-lasting energy savings. With ecobee, Clayton will now deliver even more energy efficient homes that will become a standard for the future.

“Improved energy efficiency results in meaningful cost savings, putting money back into the pockets of families across America,” said Derrick Boyce, ecobee’s Vice President, Sales. “We’re always excited to find new partners like Clayton who share our commitment to innovation, affordability and world-class technology.”
