Having the correct thermostat for system in your home makes a world of difference. From efficiency, wifi, heating/cooling modes etc. But to break things down there are 3 type of thermostats: Smart, Programable and Manual. Smart thermostats can range from doing almost everything but  making you coffee in the morning. They are programable and can be controlled via WIFI or if you want even from our office. There are a lot of different functions but the one I like the best is controlling and checking in on my house even when I’m  not home. Programmable thermostats are just that… programable. You can set schedules, save on heating costs and help offset utilities. Manual will offer your basic thermostat functions.
