How a Smart Thermostat Can Save Money

We hear a lot in the heating and cooling business about how much air conditioning costs in the summer. Even a family with a new HVAC unit can pay too much in operating costs if the thermostat isn't adequately controlled. Instead of continually running over to change the temperature when you leave the house or go to bed, buying a Smart thermostat like Sensi will give a homeowner better control over their cooling costs and equipment usage. 

Using a Smart thermostat

A Smart thermostat allows a family to create a heating and cooling schedule that reflects their habits and the fluctuations in temperature. With multiple scheduling, geofencing, remote functions, and intuitive apps, it's no wonder that Sensi has been voted 2020's best Smart thermometer.* 

Temperature fluctuations and geofencing

A Sensi thermostat monitors temperature fluctuations and sends alerts. It can track how much energy you're using, monitor your usage habits, and be reprogrammed from anywhere via your Smartphone. It also uses geofencing, meaning if you forget to turn it off, it will automatically set itself to use less energy when you're away from home. 

Your schedule

Sensi can be programmed to account for changes such as the Wednesday night bowling game or kid's soccer practice. It can be programmed with up to seven different schedules, which will account for weekends, long work days, and more. 

Control via cell phone

Changes to your thermostat are also available through your Smartphone. If you aren't planning on coming home one evening, for example, you can program the Sensi to adjust until you arrive. You can change the setting from anywhere as long as you have an internet connection. You can use your phone to adjust your thermostat setting while you are upstairs watching tv or from thousands of miles away. 

Works with other friendly apps

Because Sensi is compatible with Alexa, other apps can be companioned with the Sensi to control the home environment even more. They include security and lighting apps designed to work with Sensi to help manage these functions in your house.

Pays its way

Sensi eventually pays for itself because of the savings it offers through more accurate climate control and geofencing. The cost of the unit and even professional installation is money well spent, as a Sensi will save you money and last for years. Your heating and cooling equipment should work to your best advantage and will last longer if it is used more gently and judiciously in the long term. Sensi will help make that happen.
