Programmable thermostats…


According to EnergyStar.gov a programmable thermostat can save about $100 a year in energy costs.  These thermostats are designed to offer you daily temperature setting as well as weekly scheduling.  Set the temperature for when you wake up at a comfortable setting and when you hit the hay later that evening it can drop down again while you sleep.  Saturday it may even get set to offer you a little extra time for sleeping in.  They are just that customizable.  Use them to fit your life schedule and let them save you cash.

Make sure it is in the right location.  It needs to be able to get an accurate representation of your homes temperature.  Keep it away from hot spots as well as colder areas is key.  Even a lamp placed too close will influence things so do your best about looking for the prime location and let it go to work.
