The average household spends more than $2,200 a year on energy bills - nearly half of which goes to heating and cooling. Homeowners can save more than $180 a year by properly setting their programmable thermostats and maintaining those settings.
A programmable thermostat helps make it easy for you to save by offering four pre-programmed settings to regulate your home's temperature in both summer and winter - when you are home, asleep, or away.
The pre-programmed settings that come with programmable thermostats are intended to deliver savings without sacrificing comfort. Depending on your family's schedule, you can see significant savings by sticking with those settings or adjust them as appropriate for your family schedule.
The key is to establish a program that automatically reduces heating and cooling in your home when you don't need as much. Use the programmable thermostat calculator to see what you can save with set-back temperatures that work for your family.
The basic idea is to have the thermostat remember to change the settings so when your home is unoccupied the temperature can be adjusted to a money saving level. Before you return the settings change to make the cooling or heating level correct again.
Have your thermostat properly installed – so the proper and safe installation of your programmable thermostat works properly with your HVAC unit. Unless you are sure you know how, you should call a certified HVAC contractor to handle the installation for you.
