5 Signs You Need a Smart Thermostat

It might be time for a smart thermostat if your home doesn’t feel comfortable or you neglect to change temperature settings when you are away from home.

Here’s a few other indications a smart thermostat is right for your home:

1. Your energy bills keep going up.
2. You’re continuously forgetting to lower or raise the thermostat.
3. Your schedule is busy—and constantly changes.
4. You’re having problems evening out your home’s temperature.
5. You want to limit energy spending.

How Smart Thermostats Save Energy

A smart thermostat takes the guessing out of managing your home’s temperature. It’s a good choice if you have a programmable thermostat that’s set correctly or unintentionally leave your HVAC system working all day.

It uses less energy by keeping the temperature as low as possible for the greatest amount of time as possible. This helps stop wasting money on heating and cooling when you’re out of the house. Then, it warms up or cools down your house based on when you come home.

Little temperature modifications can add up to large savings over the length of a year—between 12 to 23 percent, according to two leading manufacturers. Your actual savings can be different depending on the part of the country where you are located, how large your rooms are, and your temperature and humidity preferences.

Monitor Your Home While You’re Away

Since smart thermostats are Wi-Fi-enabled, you can set them with a smartphone, tablet or laptop while you’re not at home. You can also monitor your system’s performance and get notifications if your furnace, air conditioner or heat pump isn’t running appropriately.

Can’t remember when you last changed your air filter? Or when you should make an appointment for regular tune-ups? Your thermostat can prompt you when it’s time.
