Programmable Thermostats: Choosing SmartIf it’s time to give up on your old manual thermostat, it’s a smart move to install a programmable thermostat. The prices have dropped, and the features are increasingly high-tech. Installing a digital thermostat is probably the easiest “green” solution for anyone’s home. By keeping the temperatures programmed digitally, you can better adapt your HVAC system to your living situation. New smart features make these devices even more versatile, essentially allowing you to control your home-comfort system from a distance.

Programming options range from general every-day programming to individual day programs. Some models employ “Smart Response” technology that adjusts the start time to make sure the target temperature is hit by the specified time. Many smart programmable thermostats can also be programmed via a WiFi Internet connection from any computer or smart phone.

If you have a heat pump system, a smart programmable thermostat designed for heat pumps can be set to allow gradual changes in set-points to prevent the heat pump from also kicking on the back-up heating coils and using more energy.
