Home HVAC Thermostat Solutions
Did you know that the U.S. Department of Energy recommends a programmable thermostat for all U.S. homes? That’s because it can save the average household up to 10% annually on heating and cooling costs. Those savings are possible through advanced functions like automatic temperature scheduling, modes, and profiles.
There are two core types of thermostats available for houses: analog and digital. Most households have transitioned to digital thermostats because they’re much more precise. Basic digital thermostats have an LCD screen and support at least several modes. Programmable thermostats can do even more like scheduling and profiles. Smart thermostats are the most advanced, featuring Wi-Fi capabilities, maintenance alerts, geofencing, and occupancy sensing to help you save even more.
A common consumer question is whether you need anything special to upgrade your current HVAC system to add programmable or smart thermostats, and the answer is usually no. Most modern digital thermostats already require an additional wire called a common wire, or C-wire. This allows you to hook up smart thermostats if you want to upgrade. If you have an older thermostat, you may not have that connection. In that case, you still have a couple of options. Many thermostats support a C-wire adapter. You can also have us install the C-wire, which would prepare your home for future installations as well.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) certifies programmable and smart thermostats through the ENERGY STAR program. Certified thermostats achieve high performance for energy efficiency. Certification may also make you eligible for various energy incentives. You can check for offers in your area by zip code through the ENERGY STAR website.
You should also check with your local electric company. One reason is that local utilities often have rebates available that you won’t find listed on EPA websites. Another is that your local utility may offer a demand response program. Such programs are optional, but can save you money through bill credits and other perks.
Even if your local utility doesn’t offer it, you may be able to save through rate awareness. This is a feature that many thermostats with energy monitoring also have. It lets them adjust your temperature slightly during those periods when your provider charges higher rates.
