Smart Thermostats

March 28, 2017

 

When it comes to keeping your home cozy and saving yourself some cash, a smart thermostat is your best friend. Today’s smart thermostats take things a couple farther. They can study your preferences and your calendar to heat and cool your house when you need it, and save on energy when you’re not home. They’re specially made and compliant and you can interact with them using your smartphone, tablet or computer.

The Lennox iComfort® thermostats include many beneficial characteristics that go past the abilities of the traditional thermostat, or even a more up-to-date programmable thermostat. They’re intended to improve energy efficiency and provide homeowners with feedback on energy usage and warnings when the HVAC system needs care. Users can remotely program these thermostats and some types can even study your family’s behaviors and modify heating and cooling to keep things comfy.

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

  • It should be able to hold your home’s temperature very near to its setting—the iComfort series thermostats will keep the temperature within 0.5 degree of its setting.
  • The programmable thermostat should be able to direct your heating and cooling based on whether you’re at home or away.
  • Your thermostat should be fitting with your HVAC system. You need to take into account its model and special things like how many zones you need to control.
  • It should look good—not like an eyesore in the middle of that kitchen wall. iComfort gives you the choice of adding a personal photo, like a family portrait or something that complements your ambiance, to use as a screensaver.
