ecobee M5A Smart Wi-Fi Thermostat User Guide

By helping your utility reduce electricity demand when it peaks, Community Energy Savings reduces your  
community's reliance on so-called "peaker plants." Peaker plants, which generally only run during times of high  
electricity demand, are expensive to maintain and operate, reduce local air quality, and emit global warming-  
causing greenhouse gases. By spreading out the electricity load, Community Energy Savings is not just reducing  
the need to operate peaker plants, it reduces the need for them to be built in the first place.  
The eco+ icon will show on the thermostat screen anytime Community Energy Savings is precooling, preheating or  
applying a setback. If you disable eco+ for the day, Community Energy Savings will be disabled until midnight.  
Notes:  
Energy savings events are generated through the server, which means that the thermostat must be  
connected to the internet in order for this feature to work.  
You may not receive any events if ecobee isn't partnered with your utility. Stay tuned, as ecobee is always  
expanding its partnerships.  
Smart Home & Away:  
Smart Home & Away automatically adjust the temperature for energy savings when it detects you are not home,  
and quickly restoring your comfort settings when you come back.  
Notes:  
Smart Home & Away lives on the thermostat itself which means that even if the thermostat is offline the  
feature will continue to be active.  
We are making some changes to this feature to further improve your experience. As such, if you purchased  
a thermostat after March 26, 2021, you will not be prompted to enable this feature during the thermostat  
setup, however, you can access it from your mobile app settings.
