If you want to make your home more comfortable and energy-efficient, upgrade to a programmable thermostat. These devices reduce warm and cold air loss by allowing you to set a schedule for the cooling and heating needs of your space. Here’s a closer look at several advantages of upgrading the thermostat for your HVAC system.

How a Programmable Thermostat Impacts Home Comfort

1. Increased Control

Programmable thermostats allow you to control when your unit runs. For instance, you can set it to dial the temperature up several degrees after you leave for work then start cooling shortly before you get home so that you arrive to a comfortable space.

During the winter, program your thermostat so that the temperature rises during the evenings and overnight. This will keep you warm while you sleep and when you wake up in the morning. 

2. Lower Utility Bills

Since your HVAC system won’t have to run as frequently or work as hard to make your home feel comfortable, it won’t use as much power or electricity. As a result, you’ll likely notice reduced utility expenses from month to month. 

3. Longer HVAC System Life Span

Programmable thermostats take some of the stress off your HVAC system, preventing it from overworking to heat and cool your space. This will make repair issues less likely, ultimately resulting in fewer inconvenient breakdowns and a longer working life.
