dealers the ability to offer consumers what they want: a Wi-Fi®-enabled smart thermostat that’s reliable,
programmable, user-friendly and affordable.

What’s the Story? The Deeper Meaning of Ion Black & Ion Gray
ICP’s Tiered Color System & Product Strategy Supports Upselling with Best/Better/Good
Research shows that naming
modern products and brands by
color adds a perceived value of
uniqueness. A prime example of this
is when payment companies use
colors to categorize the exclusivity
of their credit cards, like blue, green,
gold or platinum.
2026 LAUNCH
With that in mind, we are excited
about the new tiered color strategy
for Ion connected products! To
better identify product technology
and capabilities, the colors of black,
blue and gray have been chosen to
align with the Best/Better/Good
sales strategy and help promote upselling.
Let’s take a closer look at where the Ion Black System Control and Ion Gray Smart Thermostat fit
into the portfolio.
