One of our main purposes here at Elevate Automation in American Fork, Utah, is helping our customers become aware of the variety of home innovations on the market today. Owning a home with technological conveniences is easier now than ever, and we strive to help you make your day-to-day home experience easier – by offering smart upgrades on your appliances, including energy efficient thermostats to help you cut down on your energy use and expense.

With fall in full swing the temperatures have begun to drop, and with winter on the horizon, it will only continue. We can help you upgrade your thermostat and link it with your smartphone, tablet, or another electronic device just in time for the season. Having a smart thermostat can help you save money all year round whether you are running your central heat or air conditioning.

To maintain optimal comfort levels for yourself and your appliances, you may want to control the thermometer more efficiently. For example, your utility bill can show when you keep the thermostat too high or too low when the home or office is empty when you and your other occupants are at work, school or vacation.

How Smart Thermostats Work

When you work with our representatives, we can help you make the best choice for your home or office. You can choose from several available styles and designs which offer various features. Once your thermostat is installed and up and running, you can program it to turn on and off at designated times of the day or night. You don’t even have to be at home to do this, you can control the device remotely using a web app on your smartphone, tablet, laptop, etc.

Thermostats are typically controlled using a control panel to regulate your central heat and air conditioning and you can raise or lower the temperature to whatever you want for your home or office. But a programmable smart thermostat allows you to regulate the temperature you have “set” at specific times of the day.

Smart thermostats have the ability to learn from your normal routines. This means they can not only give you the ability to control the temperature when you are away but can show you what the usage is moment-to-moment. They can also adjust themselves “smartly” based on climate conditions like humidity in the house, for example. This means you can direct the thermostat to turn off whenever you leave the home and set it to come on again before you return.

It can also supply useful data such as how long the changes you input take to reach the new setting so you can assess firsthand if the system you are programming is actually working. It can help you if you are usually too busy or preoccupied to consistently remember to adjust the device yourself when you come and go. Essentially, your smart thermostat can help you conveniently manage the climate in your home, freeing your mind to take care of the rest of your day-to-day demands.

If you are interested in learning more about smart thermostats and how they can help you save energy, time, and money, please give our Elevate Automation team in Utah a call at 801-901-8840 and speak with one of our knowledgeable representatives. We look forward to helping you maintain the comfort levels in your home all year round!
