I am regularly working on the interior plus exterior of our home plus looking for new ways to make improvements. I appreciate to focus on the appearance, comfort plus efficiency of our home! Since both of us bought the property, I’ve replaced all of the windows plus doors, painted every room plus added gardens all the way around the outside. I’ve pulled up the seasoned carpets plus restored the hardwood floors. I spent quite a bit of money to install a new oil furnace plus air conditioner. One of the most worthwhile beach home improvements has been a new control unit. For several years, both of us managed with an old-fashioned, manual control unit. It was little more than a plastic dial. For some reason, it never occured to myself and others to replace it. The Heating, Ventilation, plus A/C business who installed the new oil furnace plus air conditioner mentioned the aged control unit. She said that a smart control machine would get more out of our new heating plus cooling system, helping myself and others to save money through superior energy efficiency. I immediately started researching control units. I was surprised by how fancy they’ve gotten. A smart control machine runs several hundred dollars. However, they deliver a wide range of very amazing features. I chose a model that includes geofencing. The control machine uses GPS to track the location of family member’s smartphones. It automatically adjusts according to our location, conserving energy when the home is empty plus welcoming us beach home to ideal temperature. Because of WIFI connectivity, I can make swings to programs plus check up on things through an app on our cellphone. I receive reminders when it’s time to schedule maintenance or change air filters. I get alerts if there’s a concern such as a temperature variation or power outage.
