Northwest HVAC Heating & Cooling is a premier HVAC provider that performs smart thermostat installation in Vancouver, WA. A smart thermostat is an upgrade we recommend to every homeowner. A core feature of smart thermostats is scheduling. It lets you automate changes to temperature, relative humidity, and more. An optimal schedule can lower your heating and cooling costs by 10%. It can also reduce your carbon footprint and wear and tear on your HVAC system.
I recommend them because they have great customer service, and also they back up their warranty when something goes wrong. They are a honest company and I would recommend them to anybody.
The Department of Energy recommends a schedule that turns your thermostat back by 7–10 degrees Fahrenheit for at least eight hours. Many households can save even more. Take advantage of all the hours available while you’re sleeping or away from home.
Many of the models we offer for smart thermostat installation in Vancouver also support profiles. Some households will need a schedule for weekdays and weekends. Others may want a different profile for each day of the week. Hold mode lets you override the profile settings and lock in the current temperature. Many thermostats also support a vacation mode. It’s a convenient way to set your HVAC while you’re gone and save energy during that time.
One of the issues with scheduling is that households don’t always have a set routine. This is where a smart thermostat with geofencing can be a big help. Geofencing lets the thermostat track you based on the GPS on your phone. If you leave early for work or return home sooner than usual, the system will detect it and adjust the schedule dynamically.
Energy monitoring is another feature that all homeowners should consider. Rising energy consumption is often the first sign of an HVAC problem. Your thermostat can alert you to that increased usage. It can also provide reports of how the system is using energy week to week and month to month. That analysis can reveal where you’re being efficient and where there’s potential to save even more. Many systems will email those reports automatically or provide them to you through a smartphone app.
