Smart thermostats are transforming the way that Opelika, Alabama, homeowners control their HVAC systems. Using a smart thermostat is a great way to improve the comfort of your home while helping save money on your monthly utility bills. Check out some of the amazing features that are making the smart thermostat the most popular accessory for HVAC systems.
Remote Access
One of the most helpful features of smart thermostats is the ability to be controlled remotely. With remote access, you can control energy use with the tap of a screen. Through an app, you can log into your thermostat from your phone or tablet to change the temperature, adjust your programming, and check out your energy reports.
Home Automation Capability
Many smart thermostat models can integrate with other home automation systems. When your home is automated, you can control all your systems from a remote hub or a voice assistance system such as Alexa or Google Home. Once integrated, adjusting your temperature is as simple as calling out a command to your voice assistant.
Home/Away Functions
Another cool feature you may want to look for when choosing your smart thermostat is geofencing, or a home/away function. With this feature, you can program your system through an app that will signal the system to make an adjustment when it detects the presence of your phone. This means no longer having to make sure to adjust the temperature before you leave. Once your phone crosses the set zone, the system will automatically adjust its program.
Learning Capabilities
Not only will your system track your energy use and provide you with tips to save energy, but it also has the capability to learn your habits over time. As it learns, it will be able to adjust the program itself, taking into account the outside weather and your preferred settings. You will maintain home comfort without having to lift a finger.
