Smart Thermostats

March 28, 2017

 

When it comes to keeping your home cozy and saving yourself some expenses, a smart thermostat is what you need. Today’s smart thermostats take things a couple more. They can study your habits and your calendar to heat and cool your house when you want it, and cut back on energy when you’re not home. They’re customizable and flexible and you can collaborate with them using your smartphone, tablet or computer.

The Lennox iComfort® thermostats include many beneficial qualities that go well beyond the potential of the traditional thermostat, or even a more modern programmable thermostat. They’re designed to enhance energy efficiency and offer homeowners with pointers on energy usage and warnings when the HVAC system needs care. Users can remotely program these thermostats and some models can even learn your family’s habits and modify heating and cooling to keep things cozy.

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

  • It should be able to set your home’s temperature very near to its setting—the iComfort series thermostats will keep the temperature within 0.5 degree of its setting.
  • The programmable thermostat should be ready to manage your heating and cooling dependent on whether you’re at home or absent.
  • Your thermostat should be well-suited with your HVAC system. You need to take into account its model and unique things like how many zones you need to manage.
  • It should look nice—not like a monstrosity in the middle of that gallery wall. iComfort gives you the choice of using a personal photo, like a family portrait or something that adds to your décor, to use as a screensaver.
