What is a Smart Thermostat?
Smart thermostats allow you to control your home cooling and heating wirelessly. Smart thermostats can be used with home automation systems that are Wi-Fi connected, and they can be accessed through internet-connected mobile devices.
Smart thermostat installation provides capabilities like temperature scheduling, zoned comfort within your home, and can begin to learn the behaviors of your household to automate settings and adjust temperatures based on occupancy, conditions, and preferences.
- Remote connectivity: Smart thermostats can be remotely adjusted via smartphone or web app. This makes it simple for you to better conserve energy while you’re away from home.
- Energy reporting: Smart thermostat installation allows data to be collected about your home’s energy consumption. You can access this data through the app and see how much your heating and cooling is costing you and adjust your settings to maximize savings.

Is this a DIY Project?

Installation requires you to check compatibility, make electrical connections, and configure all the connected components.
There are limited video installation guides available as well. However, your air conditioning system is something that provides comfort to your home, and the least amount of downtime the better.
