What does
GEM Link® Wireless do?
GEM Link® Wireless helps control energy costs in any location
with rooms that remain unoccupied for long periods of time.
Hospitality
GEM Link® Wireless was designed primarily for the Hospitality industry. GEM Link® provides hotel owners and management companies with an effective, reliable, and versatile resource to reduce energy expense while maintaining exceptional guest comfort.
Heating and cooling are typically the largest guest room expense, consuming 85% of room energy. However, guests are usually out of their rooms 65% of the day while the HVAC units continue to run unabated.
GEM Link® Wireless enables management to reduce wasteful energy consumption 35-45% by returning room temperature to more energy conserving levels while rooms are physically unoccupied. When guests return to their rooms, room temperature quickly returns to the guest’s previous setting. Guests have full control over the environment while in the room, therefore not compromising comfort.

The financial justification was simple. I was able to utilize all of my existing PTAC brands and lease the entire system while maintaining a positive cash flow... The lease payments were lower than the monthly energy savings.

Assisted Living / Condo Timeshare
Assisted Living Facilities – also known as residential care, adult congregate care, or domiciliary care – provide residences for elderly persons who can no longer live on their own. Often, residents spend a large portion of their days in common areas or traveling to various locations for errands, sightseeing, or field trips. Resident rooms are often empty most of the day.
Condo and Timeshare properties rented as vacation getaways are known to have exceptionally high energy expenses. Guests often set heating and air conditioning units to maximum temperatures while while they are away most of the day sightseeing or visiting attractions. GEM Link® Wireless helps owners maintain control of energy expenses by keeping the environment at more energy conserving, but comfortable levels while guests are away.

Energy efficiency is our most cost effective approach to reducing our environmental impact while lowering our operational costs... Lodging Technology was selected based on maintenance, environmental impact, and our overall return on investment.

College Dorms / Military Lodging
Schools, Colleges, and Universities in the US use an average of 18.9 kilowatt-hours (kWh) per square foot of electricity annually. Heating, Cooling, and Lighting are the largest consumers of electricity in these facilities. Students spend a large part of their day in class, at the library, or in the computer lab while their dorm rooms remain empty. They often take road trips or go home for the weekends, leaving the thermostat at extreme settings.
Military lodging facilities, including dependent housing, are often vacant throughout much of the day (or night) while military personnel are attending classes, performing job duties, or maintaining physical training.
