We’ve come a long way from the days when constantly adjusting your thermostat was practically an art form. Today, smarter and more connected HVAC thermostats can give you greater control, comfort, and efficiency than ever before.
The first type of HVAC control that most people become familiar with is usually a manual thermostat. Manual thermostats are simple devices that allow you to choose a setpoint temperature using a dial, lever, or digital interface. They work well and they’re extremely simple to use, but they aren’t very convenient. Many people find it necessary to make frequent adjustments to the setpoint in order to stay comfortable.
In recent years, homeowners have increasingly turned to Wi-Fi thermostats and smart thermostats for more feature-rich controls. These terms are often used interchangeably, but they refer to devices that have slightly different features. At Extreme Air & Electric, LLC, our NATE-certified technicians are happy to assist you with selecting and installing either type.
Not surprisingly, the main feature of a Wi-Fi thermostat is its ability to connect to your home’s wireless network. Being internet-enabled allows you to connect to your thermostat remotely using almost any computer, tablet, or smartphone. You can easily check your current settings and make adjustments while you’re on the go.
The possibilities of Wi-Fi thermostats are almost endless. Not sure if you dialed back the air conditioning before you left the house in the morning? Just connect with your phone and you can see in seconds. Adjust your thermostat on the commute from work and you can always come back to a perfectly comfortable home. Being able to adjust your thermostat while you’re away can also help you save on energy costs without losing comfort.
In simple terms, a smart thermostat is a Wi-Fi thermostat that’s been outfitted with a brain. In addition to on-the-go connectivity, smart thermostats can also automatically manage your settings based on a variety of factors. This includes making adjustments based on the weather and using movement sensors, and other data to learn your daily schedule and preferences. There are many reasons we love smart thermostats, including:
