Which Thermostat Should I Get?

October 17, 2022 | Blog

If youโ€™re trying to get the best out of your HVAC system, donโ€™t skip out on choosing the right thermostat. Your thermostat is one of the most important devices in your home because it gives you control over your homeโ€™s level of comfort. If youโ€™re unsure which thermostat is right for your home, KCA Services can help. Here are the three types of thermostats we can install for your home.

Nonprogrammable Thermostat

These types of thermostats are the most basic thermostat. There are both digital and non-digital nonprogrammable thermostats. They are backlit with a large display, which makes them easier to read. They also come with a flip-out door so you can change out the batteries whenever you need. While they donโ€™t come with many other perks, nonprogrammable thermostats are reliable and can be easily installed in your home.

Programmable Thermostat

Programmable thermostats are very useful for those who donโ€™t want to manually adjust their thermostat. Depending on the model you get, you can schedule and set your temperature for each day, weekday and weekend ahead of time. Because you can set preferences with these types of thermostats, youโ€™ll save money on energy costs and keep your utility bills low. You wonโ€™t need unnecessary changes in heated or cooled air because it is already catered to your preferences.

Smart Thermostat

Smart Thermostats are the most high-end thermostat you can have in your home. While they are more expensive than the other two types of devices, these thermostats offer multiple benefits to your HVAC system. Using your homeโ€™s Wi-Fi, your thermostat can be controlled through the smart devices in your home. This includes:

  • Smart Phones
  • Tablets
  • Mobile Devices
  • Smart Home Devices (Amazon Alexa, Google Home)

This makes it convenient for homeowners to set their temperature from anywhere in their home or even while they are away. Smart thermostats also give you reports on your energy consumption, status updates and air-filter-change notifications. These thermostats are very useful for homeowners and offer many perks for those looking to upgrade their HVAC system.

When You Should Install a New Thermostat

If you have any concerns with your current thermostat, it may be time for a replacement. Whether itโ€™s not displaying the right temperature or making it difficult for your home to stay comfortable, you should start considering how a new installation can change your home.

No matter which type of thermostat you choose, youโ€™ll notice that there will be benefits to your home. You will see that your HVAC system will have higher energy efficiency. This reduces your energy consumption and helps you save on your utility bills. It will also be easier to operate your new thermostat, especially if you opt for a higher-end device. Replacing your old device will give your home a new life.
