Programmable Thermostat Options

A brutal winter coupled with higher fuel and electricity costs have many Massachusetts homeowners scrambling for ways to take a serious cut out of their energy costs. There are several ways to do that and still stay comfortable. One simple way is with the installation of programmable thermostats.

Using programmable thermostats is a very cost-effective method of cutting down on home energy. Reducing heating and cooling use during unoccupied hours can really add up. The lifestyle and routines in the family home have a significant bearing on what is the best choice. There are three standard types available. Examine your daily and weekly routines before determining the one that works best for your home.

  • 5+2 Style--This thermostat has two programming options---one for weekdays and one for weekends. Those whose routines tend to remain the same, week-to-week, may find this their best and simplest choice.
  • 5+1+1 Style--For a routine weekday and varying schedules on Saturdays and Sundays, this may work best. Three different programs allow for a standard weekday, a program for Saturday and a different one for Sundays.
  • 7-Day Style--If your family's weeks tend to change frequently, with few set routines, this might be your best option. This style allows the optimum flexibility. Each day can be programmed to a completely different schedule than the next one. Active families with varied schedules would be best served by this style.

The use of programmable thermostats can produce significant energy savings by reducing the heating or cooling in a home while the family is out. But their use should be correctly coupled with the lifestyle of the family.
There are other types and options for home programmable thermostats but these are the most basic models.

Many models come with remote programming and vacation settings. We have additional details on available options and can work with you to help pair you with the best model for your home and family. Contact us at Rodenhiser. We can help you make an informed decision on programmable thermostat options that will both save you the most on energy and fit your situation best.
