Smart Thermostats

March 28, 2017

 

When it comes to keeping your home comfortable and saving yourself some money, a smart thermostat is the one for you. Today’s smart thermostats take things a few farther. They can study your habits and your calendar to heat and cool your house when you want it, and save on energy when you’re not home. They’re tailored and flexible and you can work with them using your smartphone, tablet or computer.

The Lennox iComfort® thermostats contain many beneficial characteristics that go well beyond the potential of the traditional thermostat, or even a more up-to-date programmable thermostat. They’re built to improve energy efficiency and set up homeowners with pointers on energy usage and signals when the HVAC system needs care. Users can remotely program these thermostats and some types can even study your family’s patterns and modify heating and cooling to keep things cozy.

Your HVAC system is almost always the largest energy consumer in your home. With a programmable or smart thermostat, you’ll receive top control of your HVAC system and effectively manage your home's energy usage. Here are some things to search for:

  • It should be able to hold your home’s temperature very near to its setting—the iComfort series thermostats will set the temperature within 0.5 degree of its setting.
  • The programmable thermostat should be able to direct your heating and cooling based on whether you’re at home or not.
  • Your thermostat should be fitting with your HVAC system. You need to take into account its model and special things like how many zones you need to control.
  • It should look nice—not like an eyesore in the middle of that living room mantel. iComfort gives you the selection of adding a personal photo, like a family portrait or something that complements your ambiance, to use as a screensaver.
