However, the thermostat I have, although it may be old, I can still set the temperature and program it based on my needs
I’ve been thinking about getting a smart thermostat installed to replace the old, outdated thermostat I currently have. My sister got a smart thermostat a year ago, and then shortly after, my parents got one too. Both of them enjoy having their smart thermostats so I know I’d like having one, but I don’t know if I can justify the price. Smart thermostats are much more expensive than a traditional thermostat, but they can also do so much more. From what I’ve been told, a smart thermostat can connect to the WIFI and be controlled via a cell phone. I really love this feature, because that means that I can change my temperature settings from anywhere at any time. I also heard that smart thermostats had a GPS that was able to track my location and adjust my temperature settings according to where I was within the radius of the house. Smart thermostats program themselves in order to make your HVAC system run more efficiently. They know what temperatures you prefer during different hours of the day and they can raise and lower the temperatures at a slower, more energy efficient pace. All of these features really intrigue me and I would love to have one installed in my house. However, the thermostat I have, although it may be old, I can still set the temperature and program it based on my needs. The only thing I can’t do, is connect it to my WIFI. I’m going to think about purchasing one a little bit longer.
