How Does a Smart Thermostat Work?
A smart thermostat provides automated control of your heating and cooling system. Connected to the Internet, it can be adjusted remotely. It can be operated using other smart devices such as a control panel, voice assistant, phone, or tablet. Input from various sensors enables the unit to monitor parameters such as temperature, humidity, and room occupancy and respond accordingly. Some units have advanced features that allow adjustments based on weather conditions.
Benefits of a Smart Thermostat
Installing a modern thermostat is a valuable home automation upgrade that can have the following benefits:
- Scheduling: Set a schedule and your thermostat will adjust accordingly; or, it can track your usage habits and adapt automatically to your heating and cooling needs.
- Convenience: Whether you want to change the temperature from the couch or forgot to adjust it before leaving for work or vacation, you can change it via your phone.
- Efficiency: Depending on your routine, you may not need the heat or AC at certain times. A smart thermostat adjusts your HVAC system accordingly to save energy.
- Voice Control: Many smart units are compatible with home voice assistants, allowing you to simply tell the thermostat what temperature you want.
- Automation: Occupancy sensors can signal your HVAC unit to turn off when you’re not home, while a smart thermostat can learn your usage habits.
- Compatibility: Today’s thermostats work with popular smart home devices and indoor air quality equipment like humidifiers, dehumidifiers, and ventilators.

When to Replace Your Smart Thermostat
A smart thermostat can last five to ten years. However, things can go wrong with it and can’t always be fixed. Smart units are complex devices. Replacing them can improve efficiency and allow you to benefit from the latest features and technologies. We can also help find a unit more suited for your HVAC system, so it works even more efficiently.
