There have been many hacks online about how to save money on your cooling bills this summer. Things like closing off your vents, rearranging furniture, or turning on and off your air conditioner. These hacks often don’t work, leaving you still feeling warm in the summer heat, and even more exhausted after wasting energy trying DIY hacks to cool your home.
Here at BAP Heating, serving Guelph and surrounding areas like Rockwood, Milton, Cambridge, and Kitchener, we have a solution that actually works: smart scheduling for your air conditioner with programmable thermostats.
Smart Thermostats: Going beyond the dial
Programming your thermostat and smart home thermostats offer a great option to be able to save energy, costs and keep your home cool all summer long. Imagine a system that learns your routines and adjusts your AC accordingly. No more chilly mornings or sweltering evenings – just perfect comfort, precisely when you need it.
Schedule Smart. Stay Comfortable.
Think of smart scheduling as a recipe for a perfectly balanced summer. You can hook it up to wifi, or your smartphone to make sure you are optimizing your heating and cooling bills as best as possible. Here are the key ingredients:
- Reduced Energy Costs: Summer is full of BBQ’s, weddings, birthdays, and cottage weekends. It doesn’t make sense to pump the AC when you’re gone, but it’s also very uncomfortable coming home from a weekend away or a long night at a wedding to a stuffy, hot home. Smart scheduling ensures your AC runs efficiently, minimizing unnecessary cooling cycles and potentially saving you hundreds on your energy bills.
- Enhanced Comfort: Picture this: you’re hiking the scenic trails of the Guelph Lake Conservation Area. By the time you return home, drenched in sweat, your smart thermostat has cleverly pre-cooled your house to a perfect temperature. No more waiting for the AC to kick in – just blissful cool air welcoming you the moment you step through the door.
- Peace of Mind: Non-programmable thermostats often lead to a nagging worry – is the AC blasting all day while you’re at work? Smart scheduling eliminates this concern by ensuring your AC operates only when necessary. Imagine relaxing at the Guelph Farmers Market on a Saturday morning, knowing your home is neither a furnace nor a wasteful icebox.
- Convenience at Your Fingertips: Imagine adjusting your thermostat settings while cheering on the Guelph Storm at the Sleeman Centre. With a smart home app, you can control your AC from anywhere, whether you’re running late from work or want to ensure a cool haven before a backyard barbecue.
- Environmentally Friendly: By reducing your energy consumption, smart scheduling contributes to a smaller carbon footprint. Smart scheduling not only saves you money but also helps do a little more for the environment.
