Abstract
In some embodiments, security and/or automation systems, collectively referred to as automation systems, may offer a user the comforts of automatically controlling HVAC settings based at least in part on an alarm. The automation system may provide automatically meet desired HVAC conditions at select times and provide a more comfortable living situation. In some embodiments, the increased comfort level may enable or ease household activities. For example, if a person sleeps with a cooler temperature, it may be harder for the person to get out of bed. But an automated HVAC system may adjust the temperature such that when a person desires to wake up, the temperature is comfortable and may ease a transition from day to night.

21. A method for a security and/or automation system, comprising:
-
predicting, by a control panel, a wake time of a user based at least in part on an alarm activation time on an alarm device and at least one previous wake time of the user; determining, by the control panel, an adjustment time to automatically adjust a temperature setting of a room based at least in part on the predicted wake time of the user; and automatically adjusting, by the control panel, the temperature setting of a heating ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) system at the adjustment time. - View Dependent Claims (22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31)

32. An apparatus for a security and/or automation system, comprising:
-
a processor; memory in electronic communication with the processor; and instructions stored in the memory, the instructions being executable by the processor to; predict a wake time of a user based at least in part on an alarm activation time on an alarm device and at least one previous wake time of the user; determine an adjustment time to automatically adjust a temperature setting of a room based at least in part on the predicted wake time of the user; and automatically adjust the temperature setting of a heating ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) system at the adjustment time. - View Dependent Claims (33, 34, 35, 36)
