Description
The Emerson / White-Rodgers BLUE Easy Reader Thermostat can be operated at a glance. And research has shown that many consumers, including the 78 million baby boomers in the United States, have expressed a clear preference for easy-to-operate, easy-to-read thermostats.
More and more homeowners in the 50+ age group are requesting thermostats with larger, easier to read displays and overall simple operation. And they are asking for simplicity. Consumers want one-button operation. One button to select heat or cooling. One button to set the temperature.
The Blue Easy Reader thermostat includes a six-square-inch back display with large one-inch characters for communicating room temperature, and half-inch characters for other communications, allowing for simple operation.
The large characters and one-button, one-function operation make it simple to set or adjust. And the lighted 6-inch display makes it even easier to operate in low light areas.
