Smart Thermostats

March 28, 2017

 

When it comes to keeping your home warm and saving yourself some money, a smart thermostat is the one for you. Today’s smart thermostats take things a couple farther. They can learn your habits and your agenda to heat and cool your house when you require it, and save on energy when you’re not home. They’re customizable and flexible and you can interact with them using your smartphone, tablet or computer.

The Lennox iComfort® thermostats include many beneficial features that go further than the abilities of the traditional thermostat, or even a more contemporary programmable thermostat. They’re designed to improve energy efficiency and set up homeowners with pointers on energy usage and alerts when the HVAC system needs care. Users can remotely program these thermostats and some types can even learn your family’s patterns and modify heating and cooling to keep things comfortable.

Your HVAC system is most likely the greatest energy consumer in your home. With a programmable or smart thermostat, you’ll get top control of your HVAC system and effectively oversee your home's energy usage. Here are some things to look for:

  • It should be able to keep your home’s temperature very near to its setting—the iComfort series thermostats will set the temperature within 0.5 degree of its setting.
  • The programmable thermostat should know how to operate your heating and cooling based on whether you’re at home or not.
  • Your thermostat should be compatible with your HVAC system. You need to think about its model and unique things like how many zones you need to work with.
  • It should look good—not like a monstrosity in the middle of that gallery wall. iComfort gives you the option of using a personal photo, like a family portrait or something that complements your décor, to use as a screensaver.
