Did you know that you could use a smart thermostat to save you some extra cash? That is right, you can use a smart thermostat to program your air conditioner to not operate as intensely when you are not home in order to save you money. For example, you could have the thermostat automatically turned up or down five degrees while you are away to save money. When you come back, the thermostat could auto adjust to your preferred temperature. This could lead to some huge cost savings over time. However, you may be tempted to turn that air conditioning off entirely while at work.
However, this is a bad idea because it will put a lot of stress on the air conditioning system to catch back up once it is reactivated. This could lead to damages that will require a trustworthy air conditioning service to repair.
Another tip is to activate the blower circulation option on your thermostat so that it is always running. This is important for two-story homes because all the hot air will rise and make the second level much hotter than the first. This setting should even it out.
