Why A Smart Thermostat?
It seems more and more devices are becoming “smart,” and thermostats that control your home’s temperature are no exception. A smart thermostat allows you to remotely control your home’s temperature, allowing for optimal setting of your home’s comfort level when you are home and minimizing temperatures when away, thereby achieving cost savings over the long run.
Sure, you can adjust the temperature a few times a day manually, but where’s the fun in that? With a smart thermostat, you may be able to track trends, automate settings and reduce in-home power struggles over temperature control. Whether you’re just across town at work or halfway around the world on vacation, you can manage the temperature of your house.
Depending on your specific needs and budget, there are smart thermostats that can learn and adapt to the day-to-day activities of your house, particular areas, and even specific rooms. A smart thermostat is a good investment when you consider the following factors:
• How busy is your lifestyle? • How long do you plan to stay in the house you’re in? • How long before you want your initial investment to pay off?
There are different types of smart thermostats available and can range in price from just over $100 to several hundred.
LEARNING THERMOSTATS
Learning thermostats are smart thermostats that can learn when the house is likely to be occupied and when it will be left empty according to the usual schedule and behavior of the occupants/ users.
CONNECTED THERMOSTATS
Connected thermostats are a type of smart thermostat that can be controlled through a WiFi or internet connection for remote management and programming. This type of smart thermostat typically does not provide analytic information.
ZONED SYSTEMS
Zoned systems can control the temperature in individual rooms rather than control the temperature of the whole house.
LEARNING ZONED SYSTEMS
Learning zoned systems are the most advanced smart thermostats which combine the abilities of a learning thermostat and a zoned system. l
