In the application (smart device, PC, or Mac), you can suspend your system for any period of time for winterization purposes or basic system shutdown. This article explains how to Suspend a Single Zone, Suspend Multiple Zones, Suspend Controllers (contractor plan only) and Suspend Customers (contractor plan only).
NOTE: We recommend leaving the suspended controller plugged in so you continue to receive firmware updates.
