Reasons to Install a Smart Thermostat

Are you ready to make your home more convenient and energy-efficient? The answer is a smart thermostat. Smart thermostats are electronic devices that monitor and regulate your home's temperature to make your heating and cooling system more efficient. They can be controlled from anywhere using an app. They are more energy-efficient than traditional ones because they have humidity sensors that shut off the heating or AC when humidity levels reach an optimum level. In this article, we will review some reasons why installing a smart thermostat will improve the efficiency of your heating and cooling system.


1. Monitor and Regulate the Temperature in Your Home

Smart thermostats allow you to set a range where the temperature will remain and save you money in energy costs. They can also monitor the temperature in your home and automatically turn on the air conditioning or heating system if it gets too hot or cold.

2. Save Money on Energy Costs

Smart thermostats can save energy by using 20% less energy than traditional thermostats, as they are more efficient at regulating temperatures. You can program them to turn off at certain times, which gives your heating and cooling system a break and saves even more money on energy costs.

3. Automatically Turn On the Heating or Air Conditioning

A smart thermostat can automatically turn the heating system on or off, depending on the temperature. You can also set the thermostat to turn on the air conditioner when the temperature gets too high. This helps you stay comfortable without having to adjust the temperature constantly.

4. Monitor Indoor Environment Quality

Thermostats are typically used to measure the temperature in a particular room. However, smart thermostats can do more than that. They can also monitor humidity, indoor air quality, carbon monoxide, and oxygen levels. If the humidity levels get high, the thermostat will turn off the cooling system. If the carbon monoxide levels are high, the thermostat will turn on the furnace to increase oxygen levels.

5. Turn Off Unused Equipment During Scheduled Times

A smart thermostat will allow you to see how much electricity each piece of equipment uses and turn off any unnecessary equipment. For example, if you usually turn on the air conditioner at 5 PM but don't get home until 6 PM, you can set the thermostat to turn on the air conditioner at 5 PM. When 6 PM rolls around, the air conditioner will turn off, but you will still be comfortable inside your home.

 

6. Detect Problems Before They Become Bigger Problems

A smart thermostat can detect what caused the temperature to rise and how to solve the problem. It can also detect if your furnace or air conditioner is broken or if your home has pests or rodents. When a problem arises, the thermostat will send you an alert.

7. Easy to Install and Maintain

Smart thermostats are easier to install and maintain than traditional thermostats. You can download an app to your iPhone/Android device and connect it to the smart thermostat. The app allows you to control the temperature from anywhere, monitor energy usage, and more.

FAQ

  • Why is there ice building up on the copper pipes?

    There can be many reasons why the refrigerant pipes are freezing up but the most common issue is low refrigerant levels. If your AC unit has ice buildup turn off the unit for at least 4 hours and call us at 416-410-0337

  • What is a heat pump?

    Heat pumps use electricity to move heat from a cool space to a warm space, making the cool space cooler and the warm space warmer. During the heating season, heat pumps move heat from the cool outdoors into your warm house and during the cooling season, heat pumps move heat from your cool house into the warm outdoors. Because they move heat rather than generate heat, heat pumps can provide equivalent space conditioning at as little as one quarter of the cost of operating conventional heating or cooling appliances.

  • Why should I maintain my Furnace or AC?

    An annual maintenance will extend the lifetime of your heating and cooling unit. The technician will diagnose and repair any problem with the unit before it fails, so you won't need to worry about any problems when the weather gets very hot in the summer or extremely cold in the winter.

  • Furnace is blowing cold air in Winter?

    This can be due to Ignition lockout, sometimes could be resolved by resetting the power  and if this does not resolve the issue you should contact a certified gas technician from A-Plus Quality to get this problem resolved!
