Smart Climate Control
So, what is climate control? Well, it is more than just blowing cold or hot air inside your property. The climate within the building is affected by various factors of cooling and heating systems, ventilation, seasonal changes, and levels of humidity. Modern climate control systems, such as Nest Learning Thermostat and Honeywell Lyric, can balance different factors to create the best environment inside one's home or office.
There's a perception that keeping the thermostat at the same temperature the entire day utilizes less energy than turning it down at night and heating it in the morning. This is false. The truth is more energy is used to keep a constant temperature all the time, instead of adjusting the temperature when needed.
Advantages of Smart Climate Control
With smart home temperature control, a property owner can conserve energy because the thermostat will automatically choose the optimal settings. There will be less energy loss or wasted and still keep the temperature inside the home or office comfortable for everyone.
Smart climate control, such as Nest Learning Thermostat and Honeywell Lyric, learns from the owner of the home or office. The owner needs to use the thermostat in a usual manner for a week while the system determines the schedule of the people living or working on the premises. Once the system knows the preferred temperatures, it programs itself and creates an optimized plan. There's no need to input anything. The system will heat or cool the home or office using the data it gathered.
The system knows when the owners are away and ensures that it is working efficiently. By learning how and when to keep people comfortable, it determines how and when to conserve energy.
Data shows that smart home temperature control can save up to 15 percent on cooling and 12 percent on heating, which adds up to a savings of up to $145 each year. While the upfront investment might be high, the system will pay for itself in a year or two. As you can see, there’s no reason why you should not install one in your home or office today. Not only will you conserve energy, but your home or office will be safer and more comfortable.
