Discuss with your tech all the features you would like to have and they will install it properly for you. This will ensure that your unit meets installation standards and protect your warranty.

Saving Energy Costs

There are optimal modes and temperature settings which are designed to have you money on your energy costs. Some of the smart thermostats will have energy consumption reports which will enable to you adjust your thermostat and energy usage to help save costs.

Smart Thermostat Energy Usage

These settings will enable you to use the least energy possible when you are not home and the energy use is not needed as much. Of course, the less energy you use, the less expensive your heating and cooling costs will be.
