Does the ADC-T3000 thermostat let you see how many hours the HVAC is running for?

I want to know how many hours a day my HVAC is running for so I can monitor its energy usage.

On the app screenshot for the smart thermostat here it shows an Energy Usage button.
Intelligent Thermostat | Alarm.com ADC-T3000 | Surety (suretyhome.com)

Does that mean with this thermostat you get that or do you have to get the Energy Usage add-on and have a system installed by an electrician that actually monitors the kWh usage?

Thanks,
Sarel

The T3000 does not meter power used by the HVAC. The Energy Usage section of the app you reference is the Energy Management add-on which uses Z-wave power meters/home energy meters to detect usage on a daily basis.

A monthly usage report is available for T3000 users through Alarm.com, however it likely does not have the granularity you are referring to here. A similar question was posed here.
