Benefits of Programmable Thermostats | Comfort Zone HVAC
January 4, 2016

It’s the start of a new year, which is as good a time as any to start making improvements to your home to help you stay comfortable and save energy. A major recommendation we make to our customers is to upgrade their old thermostats to new programmable models. If you’re still using a manual thermostat with sliders and dials, or an older digital thermostat that only offers you the option of raising or lowering the temperature, then it’s time for a change! Call us to schedule installation of one of the many different models of programmable thermostats.

The Benefits of Going Programmable

To maximize your use of energy during the year without giving up comfort, it’s helpful to have the climate in your house automated. For example, during winter, the thermostat should be set at 68°F during times when people are awake, and then lowered by 8° to 10° (known as a setback temperature) during the night or when the house is empty. But you can’t control these settings well when you’re asleep or not at home! The programmable thermostat gives you a level of control to standardize energy use in your home while making sure the home is always the ideal temperature when you’re home, whether awake or asleep.

There are many types of programmable thermostats available, and the more advanced ones offer extra features such as remote access through Wi-Fi connections and “smart” programming that develops its own settings based on your behavior to save even more.

Aren’t These Thermostats Complicated to Use?

They aren’t as complicated as you may think. The current generation of programmable thermostats are designed with large screens and easy interfaces to guide homeowners through the process of programming them. When we install thermostats for your home, our technicians will show you exactly how to operate them and can answer any questions you may have.
