I'll say this much, I knew a few people that had remote start installed in their cars up north, and they loved it. Nothing like pointing the doohickey out the window, pushing a button and letting the car warm up/cool down while you're still cozy inside, when it's either -20F in the middle of winter or 90+ in the dog days of summer... :thumbup:
Now if a person had underground heaters that kept the driveway from icing over, that would really be awesome. No one in my family/friends could afford that, though.
We have remote starters for our vehicles. Almost necessary for how cold it gets up here
My dad designs HVAC systems and actually got to design one for an underground garage. I remember looking over the building plans and wondering how an individual (not a business) could afford to get that built for their house. Was a three level drive down garage with parking for six cars on each level. From the garage to the roadway they had the heating system so they wouldn't have to shovel in the winter.
