The programmable thermostat will save you more money when it comes to heating and cooling your home. It is common to forget to turn off the system or set the temperature to a certain level, so you should install a programmable thermostat in your air conditioning system. Your home can be automatically cooled and heated when you are at home or away.
The thermostat can turn off the heating system during the day and turn it back on an hour or so before you get home. Different methods are used. The compressor, for instance, can be stopped when the room temperature reaches a certain level so that the AC does not run when it is not needed, thus reducing energy consumption.
When you are indoors, you should run the heater at around 78° Fahrenheit (25° Celsius) and run it at a high temperature when you are not home. Due to the AC’s ability to remove indoor humidity, the home may feel cooler when it’s 25° outside.
