I have been hinting to my wife for a long time that I want to have a smart thermostat.
- I talk about the smart thermostat all the time basically how it would be easier with the remote control of the HVAC system.
If we left the house and forgot to turn off the HVAC, we could easily just turn it off via our smartphones. I even talk about how we could easily save up to 10% on our energy bills just by using the smart thermostat. I suppose it was on her mind after I was talking about getting a smart thermostat for so long because for my birthday, she finally decided to get me a wonderful smart thermostat. I was really happy about it and one of the first things I did was pull it out of the box and get started with the installation process. Installing a smart thermostat is not all that challenging, but you might want to get a professional to take care of it if you don’t know what you are doing. One thing you definitely need to do is make sure you take a picture of the wiring before you get started. Trust me, you do not want to get your wires crossed, that can actually destroy your smart thermostat. When I had everything installed and working, I was so excited when I was first using the smart app. It was so easy to use and there were so many cool features. I love the fact that the smart thermostat tells me what the external weather is and it accounts for that when heating and cooling the household.
