Add to Your Energy Savings with a Programmable Thermostat
Customers sometimes ask our advice on different ways that they can improve their energy savings, and as your full-service home comfort company, we make it our duty to help find you the solutions. One of the easiest and lowest cost answers to that question is upgrading your outdated on/off thermostats to new programmable thermostats from F.C. Haab.
It can be easy to overlook the energy-saving potential of a thermostat, but your old thermostats can be a big energy waster inside your home! Simple on/off thermostats leave you with a tough decision. You can leave the heat on and waste fuel on an empty home, or you can turn it down and risk coming home to icy temperatures.
A programmable thermostat lets you set custom schedules so you can have the best of both worlds! Lower your heat when you are away or asleep, and then set it to turn on before you wake up or get home. This allows you to save on energy costs and still come back to a warm and cozy home. You can also set different schedules for every day of the week!
A Tip from The U.S. Department of Energy
According to the U.S. Department of Energy, you can save as much as 10 percent a year on your heating and cooling bills simply by turning the thermostat back 7° to 10° for 8 hours a day. And you don't even have to remember to do so - it can be done automatically without sacrificing comfort by installing a programmable thermostat.
