The weather is changing. Summer has said its goodbyes, and the winter season is slowly creeping up around the country. Also gone, at least temporarily, are the days of letting the thermostat run to stay cool.

If there ever was a time to install a programmable thermostat in your home, it would be now. This particular thermostat allows reduction of a building’s healing and cooling losses by adjusting temperatures via programmed settings during specific times of the day. As beneficial as a programmable thermostat can be in the summer, it can be just as helpful during the chillier months.

How does it work? Programmable thermostats control the flow of heat and cool in and out of your system. The thermostat makes adjustments as needed to maintain the desired temperature. During the winter and fall seasons, it may be set to permit building temperatures to rise when no one is at home during regular workdays.

The experts at One Hour Heating & Air Condition of Birmingham AL recommend a talking thermostat in your household. Talking thermostats not only offer voice instruction for comfort in the home but also reminders for when air filters need to be changed, as well as other maintenance issues.
