What is the difference between smart and programmable thermostats?

Published on August 04, 2017

If you are searching for ways to stay comfy in your Fort Wayne home while saving money, you might want to consider upgrading your thermostat. Thermostats have been upgraded quite a bit from setting the temperature and walking away and Rolf Griffin Service Experts has a number of thermostats to meet your specific needs.

The most popular styles of thermostats are programmable and smart thermostats, and there are a number of options and features from Rolf Griffin Service Experts.

What is the difference between programmable and smart thermostats?
  • Programmable thermostats mean you can pre-set temperatures for a variety of times of the day and week. You can setup the thermostat so that it provides different temperatures during the day when no one is around, or at night when everyone is snoozing. There’s no need to devote energy and money to keep the house cool or warm when it’s empty, so a programmable thermostat helps you save money by setting the temperature automatically. You can head out with one less thing to be concerned with.
  • Smart thermostats take it another step and are more intuitive. They follow the temperature changes that you make and learn from your behavior which allows it to begin making adjustments on its own. Many of the newer and more advanced thermostats utilize your home’s Wi-Fi network, allowing you to control your home’s temperature from all over using an app through your phone or computer. These thermostats can often be arranged to compile your energy usage statistics on a website.

Whether you choose a programmable thermostat or smart thermostat will be contingent on your individual needs, budget and familiarity with technology. While smart thermostats cost a little more because of the additional features, both programmable and smart thermostats are great ways to save on your energy expenses while making sure you are comfortable in your Fort Wayne home.

If you have any questions about upgrading your thermostat or other ways to gain efficiencies in your home, give Rolf Griffin Service Experts a call at 260-557-1275 or request an appointment online and our specialists will be happy to help you.
