Contrary to claims made in this thread PG&E does not ( edit: override your control of smart thermostats ). It offers a price guarantee that for the first year ratepayers will not pay more than the standard plan by switching to the time-of-use plan required for the rebate. After the first year you can switch back to your old rate plan for free if your bill shows that you have been unable to avoid high use during peak hours. This means NO RISK. The above is per PG&E reps. Call to get first hand confirmation.

Just be warned, this SmartAC program requires you to give away control of your thermostat. May literally be a hot deal when it's 92 out and they crank your AC up to 85 or even turn it off. Just make sure you know what you're getting into

Just read the T&C's. Can confirm.
What a disaster that'd be. Expect to never have your house be set lower than 85.

But just think of how much energy and money you will save by running the heat all summer long!

This is absolutely true, along with the horrible google home app, and the even worse location control, you will really enjoy going to get the mail or something and seeing your AC jump from 70 to 85, and then struggle forever to cool itself back down. This is by far one of the stupidest and worst designed products I have ever owned. This pile isn't worth it even if they pay you to take it. STAY AWAY TRUST ME. Smart by name does not indicate smart by design.
