A guide to Wi-Fi thermostats

Do you need new thermostats for your home? Consider a smart thermostat that can connect to your home’s Wi-Fi. As experts in residential heating and air conditioning, the team at Confort Expert want to help you determine whether a Wi-Fi thermostat is right for your household.

How do smart thermostats differ from traditional models?

Smart Wi-Fi-enabled thermostats differ from more basic models in that they can be controlled with a smart phone. Notably, this technology allows you to adjust the indoor temperature without going to the wall-mounted device. In fact, you can control your home temperature from anywhere, provided you can use your phone’s data or connect to a Wi-Fi network.

How do they work?

To adjust the temperature in your home, simply download the smartphone application that corresponds to your thermostat model. This app will allow you to connect to your home Wi-Fi network and adjust your thermostat from your couch or while away from home. Some of the products we offer at Confort Expert are compatible with personal digital assistants such as Alexa, Siri and Google Home, allowing you to adjust your thermostat with verbal commands.

What are the main advantages of Wi-Fi thermostats?

Wi-Fi thermostats make life easier. In addition to allowing you to remotely adjust your heating and air conditioning, they can be paired with your ventilation system and humidifier. Furthermore, they can collect data about your use habits. This gives you the convenient option to let your thermostat automatically adjust the temperature throughout the day.

In addition, Wi-Fi thermostats are Energy Star certified and can help lower your power bills.

How are they installed?

To ensure that your thermostats work correctly and efficiently, have them installed by a professional. That way you ensure that your thermostat is installed properly and according to the manufacturer’s standards. In addition, the technician will walk you through how the thermostat works.
