HOME HEATING AND COOLING

Smart thermostats not only help keep your home comfortable, but can help reduce your heating and cooling costs. A smart thermostat goes beyond relying on a simple schedule. It enables you to create daily schedules and gives you complete control over your HVAC system, even when you’re away from home from your smartphone or webapp.

Regular thermostats are a control panel to adjust the temperature in your home. Programmable thermostats let you set the temperature and have the thermostat change it based on the time of day. Smart thermostats learn from your behaviors and allow you to control the climate in your home remotely.

Most thermostats are located in one central area creating hot or cold spots in rooms that matter. Remote sensors can help balance and adjust the temperature to fit the needs of specific rooms.

You can tell your smart thermostat to shut off after you leave for work, and then have it spring into action in just enough time to make the house nice and warm (or cool, depending on the season) by the time you to get home. Most smart thermostats show you how long it takes to make the change you’ve requested, so you can see how efficient your climate control system is. They also can show your energy consumption in real-time. They will even tell you when it’s time to change your filter.

Additionally, many smart thermostats are certified as energy efficient and qualify for utilities rebates.
