How booking calendars drive your heating

We read your iCal feeds and warm the property ahead of each check-in.

Each booking platform publishes an iCal link — a web address ending in .ics that lists your bookings. You paste those links into Smart Property once, and we check them every few minutes.

What happens

• When a booking is coming up, we start warming the property so it's at your comfort temperature by check-in time (we use local weather to judge how early to start).
• While it's occupied, it holds your comfort temperature on your schedule.
• After check-out it drops to your away/setback temperature to save energy.

If you list on several platforms, add a feed from every one — together they give the full picture of when your property is booked.
