Why Programmable and Smart Thermostats are So Popular
Programmable thermostats are popular for a good reason. A smart thermostat will keep you comfortable around the clock and reduce your heating and cooling costs all year. Programmable thermostats let you create customized heating and cooling schedules. Once you set up the program, your house will be perfectly comfortable whenever you wake up or return after a day of work.
Benefits of Programmable or Smart Thermostats
Today’s smart thermostats are intuitive, attractive and easy to program. Most models feature touchscreen displays that allow you to quickly create or adjust your heating and cooling schedule for weekdays and weekends. Smart thermostats track your energy use and make suggestions for lowering your utility consumption. They can even learn your schedule and which temperatures you prefer.
Will a Programmable Thermostat Lower My Energy Bills?
According to the Department of Energy, a programmable thermostat can reduce your heating and cooling bills by 15 percent. It costs $900 per year to heat and cool the average home in Conyers. Your new thermostat could save you more than $130 annually. Plus, many smart thermostats qualify for rebates that will lower the cost and increase your initial savings so that you can take the family out more often or fatten up your piggy bank.
Programmable Thermostats for Heat Pumps
If you have a multi-stage heat pump or variable-speed air handler, a smart thermostat is essential for achieving maximum performance from your HVAC system. Most homeowners in Conyers and metro Atlanta use heat pumps year round. If you do, have your Zack Hammonds technician install an adaptive intelligent recovery thermostat that helps your heat pump warm your home quickly while reducing your energy use and your utility bills.
