Has Your Household Air Conditioning Routine Changed?

Update Your Thermostat!

For those of us with kids still in the home, the start of school marks a change in lifestyle. The gatherings by the pool, impromptu barbecues and family time at home comes to an abrupt halt as we get more structured in our schedules and spend more time out of the house. As you find your home is suddenly quieter, you may find it’s colder. With fewer people home during the day, you can adjust your air conditioning. It’s time to change the settings on your programmable thermostat. Or, if you don’t have one, let’s review the advantages they offer in energy efficiency and comfort control!

Update Your Air Conditioning Settings As Kids Go Back To School

• Customize your programmable thermostat to your world. There are many options and choices for a programmable thermostat. Choose one to fit your needs and sync with your family’s schedule. For example, you may choose a programmable thermostat with one set of settings during the week and another during the weekend. You may select a seven-day model designed for different settings for every day. Some even have a “vacation” mode. 
• Customize your programmable thermostat for your routine. Take a minute to think about your household routine. For example, is your house completely empty every weekday or are you gone every weekend for travel sports? Once you assess your most common patterns, you’ll know how best to set your programmable thermostat to optimize your air conditioning and keep your family comfortable. 
• Last minute vacay? Set your thermostat accordingly. There’s no reason for your air conditioner to work so hard while you’re away. With a Wi-Fi-enabled thermostat, your home can cool and ready for your return as soon as your plane lands. It’s so easy to maximize your energy savings and seamlessly return to the comfort of home with a programmable thermostat.

Programmable thermostats are an essential tool to keep your home comfortable all year round. As we mark the end of summer and our kids head back to school, it’s important to look at our pre-set preferences to avoid unnecessarily high air conditioning bills.
