Ecobee is not owned by Carrier. However, Carrier and ecobee have partnered together to offer co-branded versions of ecobee’s smart thermostats. This partnership allows both companies to leverage their expertise and technology to provide customers with enhanced heating and cooling solutions.
Carrier, founded by Willis Carrier in 1915, is a leading global provider of HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning) systems. Carrier is known for inventing modern air conditioning and has since become a trusted name in the industry. With a long history and extensive experience, Carrier continues to innovate and provide efficient and reliable HVAC solutions.
On the other hand, ecobee is a Canadian company that specializes in smart thermostats. Their flagship product, the ecobee SmartThermostat Pro with voice control, was the world’s first Wi-Fi-enabled smart thermostat. It allows users to control their heating and cooling systems remotely through a smartphone app or voice commands. The ecobee thermostat also features advanced room sensors to help optimize comfort and energy efficiency.
While ecobee and Carrier are separate companies, their collaboration brings together the expertise of both brands. By offering co-branded versions of ecobee’s thermostats, customers can enjoy the benefits of ecobee’s smart technology, combined with Carrier’s reputation for quality and performance in HVAC systems.
This partnership is beneficial for both companies. For ecobee, it provides an opportunity to expand their reach and offer their innovative thermostats to a wider customer base through Carrier’s distribution network. On the other hand, Carrier can leverage ecobee’s smart thermostat technology to enhance their HVAC systems and provide customers with more advanced and energy-efficient solutions.
While Carrier and ecobee are separate entities, their collaboration allows them to bring together their respective strengths and offer customers the best of both worlds in terms of heating, cooling, and smart thermostat technology.
