From the moment you connect your Sense system, you gain a real-time view of your home’s energy use—turning that once-a-month bill into all-day-every-day insights that help you make smarter energy choices and save money. Make sure you complete your device survey to help Sense learn your home faster.
What to Expect in Your First Month
- Instant insights: See live energy use in the Now and Meter as devices turn on and off.
- Track daily patterns: Start seeing how energy fluctuates throughout the day and from day to day.
- Set energy goals: Reduce Always On loads, adjust device usage, or shift energy use to different times to lower costs.
- Early device detection: As Sense begins identifying devices, you’ll get notifications — be sure to confirm what the device is, add model information, and give it a name that makes the most sense in your home.
Ongoing Learning & Deeper Insights
After a full month, look for more detailed results and personalized data:
- Usage & Compare cards: Track trends over time and see how your home compares to similar households.
- Device details: As Sense refines its learning, it identifies your most-used devices, helping you optimize usage, upgrade inefficient appliances, or adjust settings to reduce waste.
While Sense may not detect every device, it continuously improves, giving you smarter insights to help you lower costs and reduce energy waste—one small change at a time.
