Options a Wi-Fi Thermostat Offers You

Monday, September 14th, 2015 at 11:00 am

Most homeowners have seen a digital or programmable thermostat in action, but somewhat new to the range of thermostat choices is the “smart” thermostat, also known as a wi-fi thermostat. They have been around for a few years, and now that they have been perfected, they are proving to be pretty indispensable tools for property owners.

What Makes Them Different?

One of the biggest differences between a digital or programmable thermostat and a wi-fi thermostat is that a wi-fi thermostat can learn. Not all models do this, but most do. What do they learn? Your heating and cooling patterns, as well as your local weather and climate. By tracking your temperature settings, how you program your heating and cooling and having access to weather information from the internet, a smart thermostat will learn this information and start anticipating your heating and cooling needs.

Another major difference between a smart thermostat and a digital or programmable one is being able to access the thermostat remotely. As long as you have a smart device, access to the internet and your thermostat’s app, you can check on your heating and cooling from just about anywhere, including changing it if needed and tracking and monitoring energy usage. Your smart thermostat will even send you alerts via text message.

Have upgrades to your HVAC system, like an energy recovery ventilator or dehumidifier? Your smart thermostat will work with these components just fine, and you’ll be able to control them from your smart device as well.

Hire and Expert for Installation and Service

Installing a smart thermostat is a more involved process than connecting a few wires. This type of thermostat has a full software interface that needs to be set and programmed so that it works seamlessly with your HVAC system – this is why it is very important to hire experts to install and service your smart thermostat.
