Keep Your Cool With a Trane-Connected Thermostat

Advancements in technology are making it easier to heat and cool your Aiken, South Carolina, home efficiently. When shopping for a smart thermostat, you’ll quickly notice a variety of options. Explore several reasons why you should invest in a smart thermostat and discover how a Trane-connected thermostat can improve your home’s comfort while decreasing your heating and cooling expenses.

Gain Remote Access to Your HVAC System

Installing a smart thermostat to pair with your home’s HVAC system means you’ll be able to access the unit via a mobile device. Whether you’re at work or on your way home, you can use the thermostat’s internet-enabled technology to control the temperature setting in your home. You can set the thermostat to a more moderate temperature while you’re away and lower or increase it to a more comfortable level a few minutes before you get home.

Preset Temperatures to Automatically Adjust Based on Your Schedule

Another advantage of smart thermostats is that they enable you to preset temperatures according to your own preferences. For example, you work five days a week, Monday through Friday. You can set the thermostat to automatically adjust the temperature while you’re at work. On Saturday and Sunday, you can preset the thermostat to recognize when you are at home and have the house at a cool and comfortable 72 degrees Fahrenheit all weekend long. Once you preset these temperature preferences, the smart thermostat will remember them and repeat them week after week until you change the settings.

Save Money on Utility and HVAC Bills

In the past, homeowners were not able to preset temperature preferences or access their HVAC systems remotely with their older thermostats. The smart thermostat brings life to these features and enables homeowners to save money on their utility expenses. By adjusting temperature levels accordingly, HVAC systems can operate efficiently, which extends their longevity. Not only are homeowners reducing their heating and cooling bills, but they are also saving money on HVAC system repair and replacement costs.
