The Wonders of an Electronic Thermostat

A thermostat is a device that allows you to set the desired temperature in your home, which your heating or cooling system will work to meet. The problem with older thermostats is that, unless you remember to move your thermostat manually each time you leave the home or go to sleep, the temperature tries to stay constant. This expends energy that might not need to be used.

This predicament can be solved with the installation of an electronic thermostat. If your thermostat controls the cooling system in your home, you can program your thermostat to only operate when you're present. During periods where you're at work, you can tell your thermostat to stop regulating your indoor temperature. Before you arrive home, you can instruct the cooling system to turn on and bring your home's temperature back down to a comfortable level.

When you consider the amount of time that your cooling system would not have to run during the day, you're talking about a significant amount of savings on energy costs. There are many different makes and models of electronic thermostats -- some that provide the basic programming ability, and others that go incredibly in-depth and venture into advanced home automation territory. Green Zone Heating & Cooling can help you install an electronic thermostat in your home and help you save today. Give us a call at (717) 277-8348.
