Keeping your home warm and comfortable is beneficial in the winter. By investing in one, you can help keep the energy costs low as well. The heat that is produced in your home will be used when you schedule it during the hours you are there. If the furnace runs when you are out of the home, the heat that is produced is basically wasted. A programmable thermostat can allow you to lower the temperatures and then raise them back up when you arrive home.

Regular Schedule

If your work week is typically the same of when you leave and arrive home, the programmable thermostat would be recommended. This helps you save money, but also wear and tear of the furnace. The longer the furnace has to run, the greater the chance of wear happening. By having a programmable thermostat, you can also set it via your smart phone or smart device. This is beneficial incase you need to come home suddenly or you plan on staying later. You can always manually adjust the thermostat as well.

There are some thermostats that can be programmed so that each day is different. This can be beneficial if each day is different than the other, but it is the same week after week. A programmable thermostat can also be used in the summer with an air conditioner. So no matter what time of the year, you will be able to benefit from it. If you have any questions about the thermostat, make sure to contact us. We can also inspect the thermostat to ensure it is working correctly and at top performance levels for your home.

If you place the thermostat on the wall, make sure it is out of the line of any windows. This will help prevent a false reading from happening.
