These days, we are all conscious about finding ways to lower costs and save money. By having a smart thermostat installed by a qualified professional, you can see your utility bills drop but this is just one of the benefits of this technology, which allows unparalleled control and flexibility over the temperature levels in your home or business. At Thompson Electrical Service, we have found great success working with the Ecobee smart thermostat. That’s why, today on the blog, we want to review some of the advantages to the Ecobee devices.
Why do we prefer Ecobee smart thermostats?
The Ecobee is one of the most state-of-the-art options on the market today in the realm of smart thermostats. We also favor this device because it is compatible with all of the HVAC systems that we currently sell. The Ecobee also has more features and integrations than previous models.
Advantages to the Ecobee
- Savings: Energy savings represent one of the major pluses for any smart thermostat you may choose. These devices can be programmed to stop running, or run less, when your home or business is empty. Consistent use of a smart thermostat can lower energy costs by 20% or more over the course of an entire year.
- Improved air quality: The latest smart thermostats, such as the Smart Thermostat Premium from Ecobee, can identify any volatile organic compounds in the air while also providing information on carbon dioxide levels. You can share this information with your HVAC technician or even your physician, then take the necessary steps to improve your air quality and, with it, your health.
- Functionality: The Ecobee integrates seamlessly with much of the other technology in your home, such as a smartphone, tablet or Apple watch, through the Ecobee app. Ecobee also integrates with the Google Home app or the Apple Homekit if your home automation extends beyond your thermostat. Each Ecobee thermostat also has built-in functionality with Siri or Alexa. That means the device will respond to and carry out voice commands.
- Safety: Each thermostat model currently offered by Ecobee is now programmed to detect if someone unexpected is inside your home or business. The device will even send you an Intruder Alert.
- Capabilities: Ecobee devices can perform certain functions that many other smart thermostats in the market lack the capability to complete. For example, you can use any Ecobee thermostat to make a hands-free call. You can also stream music by connecting your phone to the Ecobee device using its Bluetooth functionality. All told, the Ecobee models can scratch the itch of even the most devoted gadget enthusiast.
