Thermostat Installation in Cincinnati & Northern Kentucky

Thermostat Installation in Cincinnati & Northern Kentucky

Does your thermostat say it’s 72 degrees, but it feels more like 78? Older thermostats may lose their accuracy over time and gather or show data incorrectly. Some houses have thermostats that are decades old and need to be replaced.

Programmable vs. Smart Thermostat

A programmable thermostat is a nice upgrade from the regular manual set thermostats of the past. You can program when you’ll be in the house or away and adjust the temperature accordingly. You can set times for every day of the week, morning and evening.

Smart thermostats take this a step further. You can program the thermostat from an app on your phone, which is often way more user-friendly than the regular programmable thermostat. The smart thermostat then learns your routine and adjusts the thermostat program accordingly, dialing in on efficiency. It will even know when daylight savings is coming and adjust for that as well.

Features of a Smart Thermostat

Smart thermostats offer many benefits and features that are very user-friendly.

  • Remote control: Control your HVAC from anywhere – from your couch, bed, on your way home from work, or even while going off on a weeklong trip.
  • Voice control: They are compatible with other smart home devices, like Google Home or Alexa. This lets you adjust the thermostat from your phone or use a voice command like, “Hey Google, turn the thermostat down two degrees.”
  • HVAC maintenance and service alerts: Your smart thermostat will tell you when the air filter needs to be replaced, or your A/C is due for a maintenance check-up.
  • Efficiency reports: Your thermostat will keep track of energy usage and give you reports of trends and even additional saving opportunities.
  • Weather change alerts: Smart thermostats can tell you when sudden weather changes are forecasted so you can plan accordingly.

Benefits of a Smart Thermostat

Here are a few benefits of installing a smart thermostat:

  • Energy savings: Smart thermostats will “learn” your schedule, allowing for more efficiency in heating and cooling. They also gather information like indoor and outdoor temperature, how long it takes to heat or cool your house, or your home’s humidity levels and adjust accordingly. The Google Nest smart thermostat has been certified by the EPA as an Energy Star product in 2017; independent data has shown an average savings of 10-12% on heating and 15% on air conditioning costs.
  • Energy Rebates: Many energy providers give rebates for installing a smart thermostat. Ask your energy provider for more information.
  • Peace of mind: It’s good to know that your thermostat is looking for discrepancies like HVAC short-cycling or will be ready for a huge drop in temperature that could freeze and burst your pipes.
