Not only would it conserve energy, but it would save money on my utility bill
I am not the type of person to get the first new gadget that’s on the market. My theory is, I like to make sure that it is something that would be useful for me before I make the purchase. Plus, I would like to make sure that all the kinks are worked out before I jump on board. I have seen it way too many times where someone I knew bought a new gadget and had to return it because it malfunctioned. So, due to that, I am always cautious. Some years ago, a friend of mine told me about smart thermostats and at the time, I was not interested in them at all. I was living in a small condo, and I didn’t think that having a smart thermostat made sense for that space. Plus, my digital thermostat worked fine and my energy bill was very low. However, now that I am in a larger space, I am considering getting the smart thermostat. Mostly because I live alone and there are rooms in my house that are always empty. For example, I have a guest room that only gets used when I have friends or family in town. So, there is no need to keep that room cool all day or all night long. So, I see the benefits of having a smart thermostat. Not only would it conserve energy, but it would save money on my utility bill. And I assume by now, they have worked out all the kinks and the technology has probably improved since they first came out on the market. I placed my order for the thermostat, now I just hope that I can install it myself.
