I recently installed two of the Filtrete 3m50 units in my place. They're outstanding. There is an app on my iPhone that allows me to monitor, adjust, etc. the settings from anywhere with an internet connection (which is pretty much anywhere these days).

The only thing you can't do remotely via the app is to change the default program, but typically when you're not home you'd set to "away" mode anyway so it wouldn't matter (i.e. you wouldn't be running the programmed "present" mode).

My only gripe is they stick off the wall too far for my liking and the "T" shaped profile makes it look glommed onto the wall. I will eventually recess the rectangular part so just the panel is "stuck" onto the wall surface. Aww, heck maybe I'll just recess the whole thing so it's flush. I'm picky about details like that...

Functionally they work very well and are a breeze to install. WELL worth the money versus the stupid mercury-switch round-dial Honeywell clunkers that used to control the place. YMMV I suppose...
