Smart Thermostat in Reading

Controlling the way your house is heated is among the better ways to reduce expensive energy bills and leave you with far more disposable earnings at the end of each month. All things considered, 60% of your power bill is from heating your house, so it's definitely a great place to start.

With the proper controls you'll be able to keep your household at a comfortable temperature, whilst simultaneously not wasting further money on fuel. You'll also be able to keep your house co2 emissions down also.

Fortunately, heating control systems may be used with just about any boiler, regardless of style or age. This means there's a saving to be made if you go out there and get it.

By installing a heating management system it can save you between £70 and £150 each and every year. On top of this there are a lot of CO2 emissions to be decreased too and you'll cut between 310kg and 630kg each year.

Also think about the temperature you have your thermostat fixed on. By simply turning it down one degree, you can save about £75 yearly and won't feel a difference in temperature either.

do smart thermostats need wifi?

The short answer to this is no! Smart thermostats can still be used without WiFi, however, they’ll be deprived of some certain capabilities and innovative features that comes mainly due to their ability to connect to the internet. As a result, the smart thermostat will only be functional for basic task such as heating and cooling control. In other words, making use of a WiFi connection will be in your best bet to enjoy the multiple juicy benefits that comes with a smart thermostats such as remote monitoring, ability to connect to other devices and display local weather conditions and much more. And what’s the use of purchasing a smart thermostat if you’d not be able to enjoy these remarkable features?

However, even when you have a WiFi, it’s expected for the connection to fail at times. When this happens, what will be the impact on your smart thermostat? Let’s have a closer look!

• As you would have expected, when your smart thermostat is disconnected from WiFi, features that are controlled with the mobile app would all be impacted. And this might be a big headache when you wish to access these features and control remotely when far away from home.

• When your smart thermostat connection to WiFi fails, all live updates and alerts would be affected. This implies that you’d stop seeing updates, reports and notifications on your mobile device. As a result, you’ll not be notified in case of an emergency like electricity cut-outs, water leaks, humidity and temperatures exceeding the set levels as well as thermostat’s low battery.

• The lack of a WiFi connection might have taken away all the juicy advantages of having a smart thermostat, but one function that remains unaffected is the basic one - the control of your home’s heating and cooling system. In other words, if your smart thermostat is offline, your home will still be heated and cooled to the thermostat’s set temperature.

how does the smart thermostat work?

If you’re building a connected home, a smart thermostat allows you to change the temperature in your home. And not only do several smart thermostats come with touch screens and a user friendly interface, but they’re also compatible with Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant and other voice controlled personal assistants. So how does a smart thermostat work? Let’s have a look!

Generally, smart thermostats are connected to the home’s Heating and/or Air Con system via C wire (common wire). Homes that lacks a C wire (especially older homes) will have to install one first before getting a smart thermostat. The C wire is a crucial element in the installation process as it works mainly to wire your smart thermostats into the Boiler system without tampering with the wiring for the other appliances in the house.

The smart thermostats comes with some special temperature setting which you can access by connecting them to your home’s WiFi. These include:

• Mobile Control

Most smart thermostats are specially designed to enable users to control the temperature of their home from the comfort of their couch or car via their unique mobile apps. This feature is just perfect if you particularly like getting the perfect temperature in your home without having to get out of bed.

• Humidity Controls

Although, the humidity of your home can not really be adjusted with a smart thermostat but you can always stay on top of it by monitoring it or setting an alarm on your phone to go off when the humidity changes.

• Geofencing Feature

With a smart thermostat, you can choose the particular times of the day you want it in action. This feature enables you to go on impromptu travels without having to worry about your energy bills - some smart thermostats come with the geotracking feature which determines when you’ve left the house and adjusts the temperature of the home accordingly with your energy usage in mind.

do smart thermostats save money?

If you’re looking to acquire smart thermostats in your home, but wondering about its money saving qualities, then this is for you! Not only do smart thermostats add new impressive features to your home, but it can also save you both energy and money. According to many reports using a programmable thermostat can save you between the range of £130 to £150 on an annual basis. Now think about using a smart thermostat that makes it a lot more easier for you.

Wondering how smart thermostat save money? Simply set your smart thermostat one or two degrees lower or higher than the usual number. Once done, you’re likely to notice 1% to 3% reduction in your energy bills. And if you want even more, you simply increase the percentage to about 10 degrees to 15 degrees to cover the period you spend at work and watch as you save up to 10 percent of your energy bills.

Generally, a smart thermostats will save you money in two major ways. These includes:

• They Do All The Thinking For You

The smart thermostat watches your behaviour and study the time you’re at home and when you’re not as well as your preferred temperature at particular times in a day, and that’s why they are termed as “smart. they’ll automatically adjust the settings to ensure you get home to a perfect temperature.

• They Keep Tabs On Your Usage

You can always count on a two way communicating smart thermostat to watch your usage while also collecting the data and sharing it with you. It informs you of your energy usage rate as well as the estimated amount. Once you’ve been notified, you can manual adjustment or leave it to the thermostat to help manage your energy.
