Our Story
HBX Control Systems was formed by Curtis Bennett and Tom Hermann in 2002, and began in mechanical rooms all over Alberta testing the first control, the CPU-1000. After developing and testing the concept and functionality, HBX launched the control in 2005.
Soon after, work began on the ECO-1000 geothermal control, released in 2007, and in 2008 HBX moved into snow melt with the development of the SNO-0110 optical snow melt sensor.
Meeting with great success, HBX launched its THM thermostats and expanded the product line with the 500 series controls, followed by the 0550 controls. With the addition of the wireless outdoor sensor and the Wi-Fi Zoning System in Fall 2015, the company has continued growing one control at a time.
Today that work continues with the Wi-Fi-enabled 600 series and the SensorLinx platform — the same innovative, forward-thinking approach to an ever-changing industry.
