Smart Thermostats in Castle Rock, CO

Benefits of Upgrading to a Smart Thermostat System 

There are a ton of benefits to upgrading your traditional thermostat system to a smart thermostat. 

Some of the most beneficial include:

Save Money:

Smart thermostats can save you serious time and money. When utilizing a smart thermostat, you can schedule your HVAC system to run whenever is most convenient for your schedule, using the touch of your finger. Because of this, you don’t have to waste energy cooling or heating your home when it is unnecessary. It is reported by Google Nest that you can save around 15% on cooling costs by using a smart thermostat!

Track Your Energy Use:

Smart Wifi thermostats allow you to track your energy usage in real time. You can create different profiles in your smart thermostat app that inform you of how your energy usage has changed over time, how much this will cost you, and how you adjust your heating and cooling habits to help lower costs on your monthly utility bills. Learn more about how you can save money based on your tracked energy usage by calling Rock Plumbing, Heating, & Air Conditioning about smart thermostat installation services today!

Control Your HVAC From Anywhere:

One of the biggest and coolest benefits of smart thermostats is the integration of technology and the advantages that it can provide to your home. With a smart thermostat, you can control the temperature from anywhere, whether you’re at the office, in your car, or out of town. Many smart thermostat apps will send you alerts and notifications regarding the temperature of your home and if the temperature has changed or adjusted. This can be extremely helpful if you are out of town and don’t have the means to change your thermostat yourself.

Adjusts to Your Specific Environment:

Many smart thermostats have a sensor that can tell how many people are in your home and then adjust automatically to account for extra or fewer people in the home. Additionally, these innovative thermostat systems can learn the normal timing and movement patterns of all the family members in your household, and adjust accordingly. This can save you money and help the health of your HVAC system by not overworking it.

Seamless Installation Process:

Smart thermostats are a fairly easy installation process and won’t require much time to complete. When you entrust Rock Plumbing, Heating, & Air Conditioning to install your smart thermostat, your certified technician will walk you through the app and how to properly use your new thermostat so you are comfortable in your understanding of your new system.

Frequently Asked Questions About Thermostat Installation

What is a Smart Thermostat?

A smart thermostat is a programmable thermostat that connects to your wifi and smart hub. Most smart thermostats can connect to smart home assistants like the Amazon Echo, Google Home, or Apple Homekit. Smart Thermostats are great because they can do a lot more than a typical programmable thermostat. Some benefits of a smart thermostat are the ability to adjust to different times of the day remotely, detect patterns, and adjust temperatures automatically based on your schedule and the temperature outside, and much more. Smart thermostats can even alert you when you need to change your HVAC filters or service your system. If you are thinking of upgrading to a smart thermostat, call Rock Plumbing, Heating, & Air Conditioning for more information.

Will a Smart Thermostat Work if You Don’t Have Power or WiFi?

Like any thermostat, if you lose power, your smart thermostat will not be able to work – but remember, neither will your heater or air conditioner. If you lose your wifi connection on the other hand, your smart thermostat will still be able to function like a normal thermostat. You will be able to control core functions such as heating and cooling functions, but any others that require a wifi connection, such as app connectivity, live updates/alerts, geofencing, scheduling etc., will be disabled until your wifi is restored.

Can a Smart Thermostat Measure Humidity?

Yes, most smart thermostats can measure humidity. Most smart thermostats have the ability to measure humidity and display when your HVAC system is dehumidifying the air in your home. It’s important to note, though, that if you lose your wifi connection, your smart thermostat will not be able to display such measurements as well as any other features required to connect to wifi.

Can Anyone Get a Smart Thermostat?

In most cases, yes, anyone can get a smart thermostat. Most HVAC systems are compatible with smart thermostats, which will help you save money and energy as well as provide you and your system with key features that make both of your lives easier.
