Are you up to date on the latest thermostat technology? You might not think much about your thermostat as it works in your Fayetteville, North Carolina, home. But if you’re like 40 percent of programmable thermostat owners, you’re paying more than you should on your energy bills. Read on to learn how programmable and smart thermostats differ and why you should upgrade today.
Programmable Thermostats
We all like to be in control of our lives, which is why programmable thermostats were a great addition to the market. We can program them to the temperature we want to maintain in our homes and choose when we want them to turn off. However, many people don’t use this feature because they find it too difficult to program.
This is costing you money. We’re busy and don’t always remember to check our thermostats. Our HVAC systems then run too long or when no one is home. Fortunately, there’s a smarter and easier way.
Smart Thermostats
Smart thermostats are programmable. But what makes them different than programmable thermostats is how easy they are to use. That translates into less stress for you and more money in your pocket.
Easy-to-use smart thermostats include these features:
- Simple controls and touch-screen displays
- Ability to change your thermostat’s setting through an app on your smartphone
- The thermostat can “learn” your temperature preferences and factor in local weather reports
Whether you want to change the temperature without getting up during your favorite movie or you want to control who has access to your settings, smart thermostats deliver what you need and when you need it. They give you total control over your comfort while maximizing convenience.
