Your thermostat is probably the most underappreciated component of your air conditioning system. The thermostat is like a referee, making sure the temperature in your home stays in the perfect range. Unfortunately, this means the game falls apart when your thermostat is out of date! When you’re looking for a replacement, a high-tech smart thermostat is the innovation that will save you time and energy.
At Complete Comfort in Jupiter, we know how important the game of temperature regulation is. Nobody likes escaping that Florida heat only to find that it snuck into their home! When you’re looking for a reliable and high-tech thermostat, opting for a smart thermostat can make a huge difference. Specifically, they save energy, learn household patterns and even reduce your usage!
Smart Vs. Standard Thermostats
One of the largest differences between the two is their learning ability. While standard thermostats are manually programmed to your needs, smart thermostats can learn your habits over time.
Learning Capabilities
Smart thermostats can be used from anywhere as long as it’s connected to your home wifi. This is especially useful paired with the way that it learns your family’s patterns. As you leave and return home, the thermostat can adjust its temperature to use less energy while you’re gone. They can also integrate with other home devices, such as voice assistants and security systems.
Energy Savings
Smart thermostats save lots of energy. This is because as they optimize temperature settings, they reduce the amount of wasted energy throughout the day. Imagine leaving your AC on for the same amount of time every single day. If you work or go to school, that is about 8 hours of wasted cool air that you’re still paying for! By allowing a thermostat to reduce its usage when you leave, you can come home to a cool house and save on your monthly energy bill!
Smart Thermostat Installation And Maintenance
The process of installation for smart appliances is fairly simple. First, the technician will make sure that the thermostat is compatible with your current heating and air conditioning system. If you have a unit made after 2014, they usually are compatible! After checking the power and removing the older thermostat, they will attach the base to the wall and secure the wiring. Once they get the settings calibrated, your new thermostat will be ready to use!
Maintenance for your thermostat is important to keep it working well.. Make sure to keep it clean, replace the batteries and update the software. This will keep your thermostat in tip-top shape while providing you with high-tech convenience.
Things To Ask Your AC Company Before You Buy A Smart Thermostat
Before you officially purchase a smart thermostat for your home, there are a few different questions you should ask to make sure that you get the most bang for your buck.
Features
While all smart technology has advanced features, there are some that you will use more than others. Asking about the different types of features can give you insight into what you are willing to pay more for, versus what you are willing to skip for a lower price.
Warranty
Make sure to ask your air conditioning technician about your thermostat’s warranty. This comes in handy if it needs any repair or replacement. A majority of smart technologies have some sort of warranty, but coverage and length vary.
