How does a programmable thermostat work?
A programmable thermostat works by allowing a homeowner to set the temperature of their home differently during different parts of the day. For instance, if no one is home during the weekdays, you can set your home at a different temperature than when you are there on the weekends. By setting the temperature to automatically adjust, you save energy and lower your energy bills.
There are many ways you can maximize the benefits of a programmable thermostat – when you are out of town for a while, at night while you are sleeping, right when you wake up – you can program the comfort of your home to match your family’s routines.
