Which Thermostat Saves Money – Programmable Or Non-Programmable

by aztilac / Friday, 26 February 2021 / Published in Aztil Air Conditioning
thermostat saves money

The thermostat is a critical component of every HVAC system. It tells the air conditioner and the furnace when to work and how much to work. The variety of thermostats available today all serve the same purpose of making your indoor space comfortable. But there is one more thing that every homeowner or building manager desires, and that is saving money on the heating and cooling bills. So there is an ongoing battle between the old and the new, or rather the traditional (non-programmable) and the modern (programmable) thermostats. By and large, one will find advocates of both. Despite that, today, we wish to decide once and for all which thermostat saves money – the programmable one or the non-programmable one.

Core Difference Between Programmable And Non-Programmable Thermostats

To understand which thermostat can bring about more power saving, you must first understand their core difference. Once the difference is clear, it will be relatively easy to assimilate why one is better than the other.

1. Non-Programmable Thermostat – A non-programmable thermostat is one where the temperature has to be adjusted manually every time. Hence, morning, noon, and night one has to visit the thermostat and change the temperature settings to keep the enclosed area at just the right temperature. The same is the case when you go out. You have to either manually switch off the thermostat or adjust the temperature to the lowest setting. Forgetting to do so means that the unit will keep on as is, even if at the moment it is not required. Unnecessarily running the unit will only mean power consumption where none is needed. Your only option is always to stay vigilant and double-check the thermostat throughout the day and when planning to go out.

2. Programmable Thermostat – Unlike a non-programmable thermostat, one can program the modern programmable thermostat. It allows you to set different temperatures for different times of the day. You can even program it to a minimum setting for the time when nobody is indoors. The most significant advantage of a programmable thermostat is that you need not always go and fiddle with it to change the settings. In short, the programmable thermostat gives more flexibility of operation. The HVAC system doesn’t need to work at a fixed speed or level any longer. It means that you can now save power by avoiding wastage and, in turn, lower the power bills.

Smart Thermostats Are An Even Better Option

Smart thermostats are also a programmable thermostat that grants the users freedom to control the settings remotely. All you need is a smartphone, which everyone has these days and a good internet connection. The smart thermostat is connected to the home or building’s internet connection, which makes for seamless connectivity. Now, even if you forget to program the thermostat for an outing that was impromptu, you can still make the changes remotely. 

How Programmable Thermostats Save Money

A programmable thermostat is not a magic box that can turn tricks. It is simply a device equipped with a variety of smart features. These very features give it the capability to help you save money.

1. Show Energy Consumption – One main advantage of using programmable thermostats is that they keep a record of the energy consumed by the heating and cooling system. Using this historical data, you can identify more times when temperature adjustment can help save further costs. Thus, it gives you a chance to accommodate for maximum savings without any adverse compromise on comfort.

2. Smart Thermostats Have Learning Features – Some programmable thermostats have smart learning features, which allow them to study the occupant’s behaviors and suggest an efficient temperature schedule. Using this schedule, one can save more power. Furthermore, smart thermostats can also judge when the home or building is occupied and when not. Accordingly, it can go on power-saving mode automatically. So even if you forget to update the program, the thermostat still takes care of everything.

How Much Money Can You Save Via Programmable Thermostat West Palm Beach

A programmable thermostat can help you save 10% to 30% of the heating and cooling portion of the energy bill. The same is even advised by EPA as well. Let’s simplify the statistics and talk in terms of money. By using a programmable thermostat, an average household can save around $130 every year.

Downside Of Non-Programmable Thermostat 

Non-programmable thermostats are sturdy, but they don’t allow you to capitalize on money-saving opportunities. If you forget to turn down the thermostat in winters or turn it up in summers, it will continue working without paying attention to whether anyone is home or not and whether the setting is appropriate for that time of the day.

You Can Get Rebates On Choosing Smart Thermostat West Palm Beach

Smart thermostats help cut a chunk of your energy bills. But the deal becomes sweeter when you realize that some utility companies even offer a rebate to households that have installed smart thermostats. So, enquire about the same from your utility company and make the most of this advantage.

Wrapping Up

Money-saving with programmable thermostats is all about small wins. You cannot cut down the power bill dramatically, but you can still lower it enough to garner appreciable savings. Admittedly, you may be able to save near the same amount using non-programmable thermostats, but that will take a lot of effort and diligence. A programmable thermostat guarantees fuss-free operations. You program the thermostat once based on your daily routine and, after that let it take over the management of temperature indoors. 

Aztil Air Conditioning can help you make the best decision in regards to choosing a programmable thermostat in West Palm Beach. With our help, you can keep your family and employees happy and comfortable all year-round. Choosing a thermostat is no rocket science but choosing the right one is all about making an informed decision. Our technician can guide and assist you in the journey.
