The myTechnician® Mobile Application is one of the best tools that a professional oil heat technician can have at a customer job site by identifying problems, reducing job time, and eliminating call backs. The app provides the technician with a wireless Bluetooth connection to a Beckett® burner fitted with the latest generation of advanced oil primary controls, the new GeniSys® 7565 120V Oil Burner Advanced Primary Control. With a local connection to the technician’s smart device, the app enables the technician to quickly program burner settings, view control history, diagnose current faults, and evaluate component trends.

The Cooper&Hunter Remote app enables a wide range of options for controlling Cooper&Hunter WiFi-Ready A/C units. Easily install a C&H WiFi Kit for each so they can be controlled independently using your mobile device. This app will enable you to easily turn your units ON and OFF, set the temperature for each room, alternate between C° and F°, switch modes (COOL, HEAT, AUTO, and FAN), and adjust the fan speed (LOW, MEDIUM, HIGH, and TURBO). The C&H Remote Schedule allows you to set daily or weekly controls on your unit so it can automatically turn ON and OFF, as well as adjust to set temperatures and modes, according to your customizations. The Sleep Curve feature allows very specific customization in regards to how your unit will operate throughout the night. This provides a great opportunity to save energy as the human body more easily acclimates to various temperatures when it is sleeping. If you experience any malfunctions or issues with your C&H unit, the Check Function will scan for error codes, which will help to pinpoint the problem when troubleshooting and/or maintenance are required. The QR Share Access feature makes it easy for multiple users, such as members of a household or corporate office team members, to control the climate settings. This app is compatible with North/ South American Models.
