Stay warm
and go green – Smart Thermostats
According
to the government's Energy Star program,
households that use a programmable thermostat can save about $180 a year on
their energy bill. These smart thermostats make it even easier to keep your
house comfortable, allowing you to adjust your settings even when you're not at
home. No matter what your budget may be, a smart thermostat is a smart way to
do your part to reduce energy consumption!
What is
the cost?
It depends
on the model, the complexity of installation and the interview (your habits).
Here is general information on a few models that we carry:
The Nest
isn't simply a thermostat that monitors and adjusts the temperature. It also
measures things such as ambient light, humidity, and motion, ultimately using
any information it gleans to fine-tune its program.
Retail
Price starts from $249 + installation.
The
Honeywell Prestige lets you monitor and control your system remotely using your
computer, smartphone, or tablet.
Depending
on your system, you can adjust indoor temperature and humidity, as well as view
outdoor temperature and humidity. The thermostat should be installed by
professionals. It offers "interview-based programming" that asks you
questions about your usage habits and programs the device to best take
advantage of those habits. Retail Price starts from $389 + installation.
Ecobee
Smart Thermostat generally requires installation by a professional. This is
because it actually has two parts: the equipment interface, which connects
directly to your furnace, humidifier, dehumidifier, ventilator, and any other
environmental control units you have, and the thermostat itself, which replaces
your current thermostat unit.
Retail
Price starts from $459 + installation.
