Programmable thermostats are an increasingly common home upgrade, and for good reason. By giving you more control over your HVAC system, a programmable thermostat can completely transform the way you heat and cool your home. It is also quite easy for a contractor to install. Here are a few ways this HVAC upgrade can benefit your family.

Top 3 Benefits of a Programmable Thermostat

1. Save Money & Energy

With a programmable thermostat, it becomes much easier to reduce household energy consumption. You can program your HVAC system to the exact temperature you prefer or program different settings for different parts of the house. This also makes it easier to adjust your indoor temperature, especially when you are away from home. As a result, you can save money by lowering energy bills and reducing wear and tear on your equipment.

2. Set Schedules

As part of this energy-saving process, a programmable thermostat allows you to set daily schedules for adjusting the temperature. For example, you can program your heater to a lower temperature while you’re away from work, but then have it warm up the house for when you get home. Once you’ve set the schedule, you won’t need to worry about adjusting the thermostat multiple times each day.

3. Remote Access

Many modern thermostats also include integration with mobile apps, letting you set your home’s temperature with your phone. Whether you’re sitting on the couch or away on vacation, you can check the settings at any time and make adjustments as needed. This convenience takes you one step closer to having a truly “smart” home.
