2. Think about your thermostatÂ
Investing in a smart thermostat could save you a lot of money in the long run. How so? Well… smart thermostats are designed to automatically adjust heating and cooling settings in order to have a comfortable temperature in your home.
Some products are even smarter: they can adjust the temperature based on certain criteria. For example, you can opt for different temperatures in your home based on the rooms that are always occupied. (If nobody sleeps in several rooms during winter, there’s no need to turn on the heating at 72° F in those rooms.)
In other words, getting smart about your thermostat could actually save you over $180 per year on your energy bills. Plus, most of them are easy-to-use, so you don’t need to be a tech savvy to install and use one. Another advantage of smart thermostats is that you will always know what’s going on in your home, because they will automatically send you alerts on your phone if something’s wrong.
