Programmable thermostats are often seen as nice to have when homeowners set up their air conditioning system. Truthfully, these are must-haves when a homeowner wants to create the most energy-efficient cooling system.
HVAC contractors can give you the lowdown on each brand and type of programmable thermostat, but knowing the exact benefits of such a control system can help you make the best decision.

Did you know that increasing or decreasing the temperature on the thermostat can mean a 2% change in your monthly utility bill for the day? When you get into micro-managing your thermostat, you will save on your utility bill each month.
