How to Simplify Rental Property Management by Standardizing Thermostat Control with StatGuardPlus

Introduction
Managing multiple rentals can be challenging, especially when thermostat settings vary from unit to unit. Inconsistent temperatures can lead to higher energy use and more time spent troubleshooting. This post explains how a standardized approach to thermostat control can help streamline property management, and how StatGuardPlus can support that process.


What is StatGuardPlus and Why It Matters

StatGuardPlus is a thermostat management system for multi-unit properties. It allows property managers to view and adjust settings from one platform. This can help create consistency across units, make it easier to maintain preferred ranges, and reduce the need to check thermostats in person.


How to Use StatGuardPlus Across Multiple Properties

1. Install and Connect

Replace existing thermostats with compatible models and connect them to Wi-Fi. Register each unit in the dashboard so they can be managed in one place.

2. Organize Units into Groups

Arrange units by building, floor, or type. This makes it easier to set the same temperature preferences for similar spaces.

3. Set Preferred Ranges

Create profiles with temperature ranges for different situations, such as occupied hours or vacancy. These ranges help maintain consistency without requiring frequent manual adjustments.

4. Enable Notifications

Turn on alerts to be notified if a unit’s temperature goes outside the chosen range. This can help address potential issues more quickly.

5. Adjust Access Levels

If needed, give tenants limited control while keeping overall settings managed by you. This balances comfort with oversight.

6. Review and Update Settings

Check the dashboard periodically to see if settings should be adjusted for seasonal changes or new tenant needs.


Tips

  • Test the system with a few units first before rolling it out across all properties.

  • Let tenants know how the thermostat is managed and how it benefits them.

  • Adjust settings seasonally to match weather patterns.


Closing
Standardizing thermostat control can help make property management more organized and predictable. With tools like StatGuardPlus, it’s easier to keep an overview of settings and adjust them as needed.
