Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2015157628A2] An environmental control and monitoring method is provided. An electronic communication including a selection of a climate control operational mode to modify an environment within a particular designated area is received from one of a plurality of environmental control and monitoring devices via a network, wherein each of the plurality of environmental control and monitoring devices include one or more climate control subsystems for modifying an environment within a designated area. The selection of the climate control operational mode is associated with a climate control parameter and the one of the plurality of environmental control and monitoring devices. An operation of a particular climate control subsystem of the one of the plurality of environmental control and monitoring devices is initiated to modify the environment within the particular designated area based on the climate control parameter. A usage parameter based on the operation of the particular climate control subsystem is received via the network. A billing message associated with a user is generated based on the usage parameter, and the billing message is transmitted to a billing system, wherein the billing message results in a charge to an account of the user.
