@JoshFink, the (z-wave) econet vents ([http://econetcontrols.com/EV100.php](http://econetcontrols.com/EV100.php)) are available now, but they lack the smart features of Keen Home vents and ecovents.

I personally think that the upcoming Keen Home vents are the best product for the price at the moment given the fact that they include a pressure sensor to avoid damaging your HVAC in case of excessive air pressure in the vents (if you close all of them for example). They are a bit expensive although there is a special pre-order discount going on right now, see this thread:

> Hello, I just want to share an offer I just got from Keen Home You can get now 10% off on the price by clicking on the link below. BTW, I’ve been working on a smartapp that enables multi-zoned heating/cooling settings at thermostats(s) when coupled with vents such as Keen Home vents or Ecovents. It was designed for ecobee thermostats originally, but I got it working with any thermostat that is connected to ST (weither z-wave thermostat, Nest, or others). You could also use the smartapp to create “virtual zones” (without any vents) where you can then adjust the heating/cooling setpoints based on the avg temp calculated from different room sensors with the ‘occupied’ option or not. The smartapp is also able to control room thermostats if any. See this thread for more details on the…

Bye for now.

P.S. You can contact Nate from Keen Home if you have additional questions about smart vents.
