WHAT ARE SMART THERMOSTATS?
Heating and cooling represent the largest share of energy consumption in the average household. However, much of this energy is wasted on conditioning unused spaces, running when the house is vacant, or maintaining constant settings during nighttime hours.
Smart thermostats offer an effective solution by learning the household's occupancy patterns and adjusting temperature settings accordingly. By doing so, they ensure energy is utilized efficiently, only activating heating or cooling systems when residents are present and awake.
HOW MUCH DO THEY COSTS?
Typically, around 40% of a home's energy expenses are attributed to heating and cooling. With smart thermostats priced at less than $200, significant savings can be achieved by simply learning to deactivate when not required. These automated systems have the potential to slash traditional heating and cooling expenses by up to 15%.
