For numerous Ohioans, HVAC is a significant expense. A smart way you can start saving on your energy costs is to invest in a Wi-Fi thermostat. Shockingly, Wi-Fi thermostats stand somewhat unfamiliar in Ohio homes. In this blog, our experts at Clayton-Englewood Heating & Cooling explain how Wi-Fi thermostats can benefit your home.
Monitor From Your Smartphone
Keeping up with adjusting the temperature in your home can be difficult when you can only control it from within your home. The benefit of investing in a Wi-Fi thermostat is that you have the ability to control and adjust the thermostat from your smartphone. This can help keep your home at a suitable, energy-saving temperature while you’re away. Whether you are at work or on vacation overseas, you can adjust the temperature in your home from anywhere when you have a Wi-Fi thermostat.
Energy Cost Reduction
Although Wi-Fi thermostats can be an investment, with the savings you’ll run into, it is sure to pay for itself and reduce the use of energy while you’re away. In addition, when you invest in a Wi-Fi thermostat, you also have the benefit of observing your energy usage day-by-day on your smartphone. By detecting which part of the day you use the most energy, you can develop a plan of action to help the reduction of energy usage and help save on your utility costs.
Maintenance Alerts
It can be hard to determine when your HVAC system may need serviced, or even an air filter changed. Luckily, Wi-Fi thermostats have the ability to send alerts to your smartphone to remind you of regular maintenance, such as changing your air filters or a need for servicing. Another alert your Wi-Fi thermostat has the ability to do is to determine if your home has become too cold or hot, which can be useful if you are at work or out of town.
Purchasing a Wi-Fi thermostat can be very beneficial to the comfort of your home and energy costs. However, when there are so many brands and models to choose from, it can be hard to determine what kind of Wi-Fi thermostat to invest in. Getting a professional’s opinion could be the make or break your home’s comfort and energy efficiency.
