I’m always on the lookout for home improvements to elevate the comfort, appearance and value of my property.
I’ve painted, sanded down the hardwood floors, installed new windows and replaced light fixtures.
I’ve spent a great deal of time and money on my home. I recently invested in a smart thermostat. Compared to some of my other purchases, it was relatively cheap. I was able to buy a top-of-the-line smart thermostat for a couple hundred bucks. I completed the installation and setup myself, and it wasn’t all that time-consuming or difficult. The thermostat is one of the best upgrades I’ve made. It has made a huge difference in my energy bills. I no longer need to remember to raise or lower the temperature setting when the family leaves the house or goes to bed. The air conditioner and furnace aren’t working as hard, because they aren’t forced to maintain ideal temperature in an empty house. Plus, my family doesn’t return to either a chilly or overheated house. The thermostat features something called geofencing that tracks the location of our smartphones. When we enter or exit a specific radius around the house, the control automatically adjusts temperature accordingly. I can easily make changes through an app on my smartphone from virtually anywhere. The thermostat also provides helpful information, such as energy tracking and reminders for maintenance. It’s very easy to use and the touchscreen display is sleek and modern-looking. It accommodates zone control for further cost savings and customized comfort and includes humidity sensors. The smart thermostat has proven to be a very advantageous home improvement.
