01

Portfolio-wide control

Manage climate settings for one property or all of them from one place.

02

Vacant-unit automation

Temperature profiles that protect the unit during turnover and cut wasted energy, switched automatically by the lease.

03

Resident comfort, operator limits

Residents adjust comfort in the Della Resident app, separate from operator-level overrides.

Where it shows up

Della Resident app for residents, and Della Connect for property and portfolio teams

UEI built a reliable hardware platform that works with most HVAC systems on the market. By combining TIDE Touch with Della OS, we convert raw device connectivity into complete property intelligence.

The partnership

In September 2026, Universal Electronics Inc. (NASDAQ: UEIC) and Della announced an integrated smart HVAC and property management solution for multifamily communities. UEI designed TIDE Touch to work with conventional HVAC systems, PTACs and fan coils, with a full-color touchscreen and a built-in Zigbee coordinator. Della OS adds the software property teams run every day.

Also on Della OS

  • Shared spaces: remote control of clubhouses and amenity spaces.
  • Early warnings: spot systems running inefficiently before they turn into maintenance calls.

Why it matters for owners

One thermostat that works with most HVAC equipment, managed in the same platform as access, Wi-Fi and resident services, gives you one climate standard across buildings built at different times with different systems.

Frequently asked questions

Which HVAC systems does TIDE Touch support?

UEI designed TIDE Touch for conventional HVAC systems, PTACs and fan coils.

Do residents still control their own temperature?

Yes. Residents adjust comfort in the Della Resident app, while the property sets the limits and the vacant-unit rules.
