LiftMaster® MyQ® Technology Now Works with Nest

ELMHURST, Ill, Sept. 8, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- LiftMaster (LiftMaster.com), the number one brand of professionally installed garage door openers, announced today that LiftMaster MyQ(®  )Technology can now work with the Nest Learning Thermostat(TM), providing customers who opt into the integration with greater energy savings and comfort.

LiftMaster's proprietary MyQ technology allows customers to connect to and control, open or close their garage door anytime, anywhere in the world using the downloadable MyQ app and a MyQ-enabled opener, along with a connected smartphone, tablet or computer. With the Nest integration, when users open the garage door opener upon arriving home, MyQ can tell Nest they're home.  When they close the door on the way out, the thermostat can go into "Away" mode for energy savings.  LiftMaster MyQ users can also quickly and easily set their Nest Thermostats to "Home" and "Away" modes using the MyQ app. 

As a Works with Nest product, LiftMaster's MyQ-enabled garage door openers were among the earliest products to integrate with Nest (Nest.com) through the Nest Developer Program.

"Through our integration with Nest, MyQ technology now gives our customers both convenience and energy savings in addition to the safety, security, and peace of mind they already enjoy," said Juan Lopez, Director of Marketing, Connectivity & Controls. "Whether customers forgot to close their garage door, need to let the service or repairman in when they're not at home, or are on vacation, LiftMaster's MyQ technology gives customers control anywhere, anytime."

MyQ technology is integrated into six LiftMaster Garage Door Openers - the LiftMaster(®) Elite Series(®) 8550, 8587, 8557 and 8500, as well as Premium Series models 8360 and 8355 - and selected LiftMaster Gate Operators.  It can also be integrated into other garage door openers from LiftMaster, as well as other major garage door brands through LiftMaster's MyQ Garage(TM) accessory.

More than 16 million smart home systems will be installed in homes across the U.S. between now and 2017,[1] and LiftMaster is committed to providing the connected products that consumers want. LiftMaster's partnership with Nest is part of the company's commitment to the connected home space. For more information on MyQ, please visit LiftMaster.com.
