Smart thermostats first became popular when Nest introduced a thermostat that learned your programming habits over time and automated the process for you. The idea of a “learning” thermostat was previously unexplored, so the implementation of this technology started a new era in thermostat production. Smart thermostats give users the accessibility of controlling their homes temperature remotely through connecting their thermostat to their homes wifi, along with options to control the thermostat through a mobile app. Additionally, smart thermostats continue to “learn” and program themselves as time goes on, adapting to your changing habits and building a schedule to meet your temperature preferences. Although Nest was the initial producer of this equipment, many competitors now have similar products to compete in the smart thermostat market. Refer to our website to compare different products and decide if a smart thermostat is a good fit for your home.

 

One thing to consider when determining if a smart thermostat is a good fit for your home is the current wiring of your thermostat. In many cases, older homes operate thermostats using two wires, one red and one black. To ensure that a smart thermostat will work properly, the home must have a common, or c, wire along with the other two to handle the “smart” components of the device. Without a common wire, smart thermostats are unable to operate at their full ability and could cause the thermostat to work incorrectly. 

 

Additionally, it is important to read any installation/operating guides to make sure that you have a full understanding on how to operate the equipment. 

 

Smart thermostats offer you the benefit of having more control over your home's heating/cooling consumption, as well as adding automation and ease of use to the process. Call today or visit us online to find out more about smart thermostats and if one would be right for your home.
