With a Programmable Thermostat, whether you are home or away, you have the freedom to heat and cool your home exactly when you want to and never when you don't.
Have you ever left the air conditioning on all day so that your home would be cool when you got home? Or left the heat on all night so you wouldn't freeze getting out of bed in the morning? If you have, you've been wasting money and energy. You don't have to.
With a programmable thermostat, you can accurately set the temperature for the whole day, or week even. Set the heater or cooler to come on just before you get home or just before you wake up. That way you won't pay to use energy while you're sleeping or worse when you aren't even home.
Do You Have Pets?
In extreme temperatures, it would be cruel to leave pets without any kind of heating or cooling. If you have a regular thermostat, you must leave the heat or air conditioning on the entire time you are gone, set at the roughly the same temperature. Regular themostats are generally less accurate and just a degree or two can have a big effect on the energy bill.
What if it's chilly in the morning and just fine in the afternoon. It may get too warm in the house later in the day. What about during the summer months. Maybe the morning is comfortable but the afternoon heat is too much. At some point during the day, the temperature is not right and your poor pet suffers.
Because you can be more accurate with a thermostat that you actually set, you can keep your pet comfortable all day without wasting energy. Set the heat or air to go on or off, up or down, whatever and whenever you want.
