Air Conditioning – Automating Your System

Air Conditioning – Automating Your System

With today’s technology it is very easy to automate your air conditioning system. Automation will help prevent you from having to get up and down to fix the temperature in the room. It can also save you money using a more efficient system that is provided by the programmable thermostat.

Total home automation

Some homeowners are automating their entire homes and not just their air conditioning systems. With total automation it will allow the homeowner to control all of the electronic devices and utilities with a single remote control. The remote control can be managed from your computer, mobile device, laptop, iPad, or just using the stand-alone controller. In the beginning it is an expensive investment but will pay for itself with energy savings. It can automate your air conditioning system, garage doors, security, lights, and more. In your home, with this type of system you will have a thermostat in each room instead of one central thermostat that controls the temperature of the entire home. With individual thermostats each person in the home can have the room at the temperature they choose, especially bedrooms as most have different temperatures they like to sleep in.

Programmable thermostat

Before you purchase a programmable thermostat for your air conditioning system make sure that it will work with this type of thermostat. This type of thermostat helps give the homeowner an energy efficient home and save money in the long run. The thermostat works by adjusting the cool air output to the changes in the temperature outside. This way the unit will only work when needed.

Automated heating system

For those cool days when you only want certain rooms to be warm, this is the type of automation you would need. For example, if you watch television in the living room or den and then take a shower before bedtime you can program your bathroom and bedroom to be warm before you get there. This helps prevent you from exiting a warm shower into a cool bedroom.

Smartphone and mobile device remote control

These are used when you have total home automation to help control the temperature of your home from a distance. When no one is at home and you forgot to turn set the air conditioning before you left you can use a smartphone or mobile device to do this. This will help to save on your monthly electric bill. To use either of these two devices you just have to download the app to either one.

These are just some of the many ways in which you can use automation to help save on your electric bills and to have an energy efficient home. Talk to an air conditioning professional to find out which is right for your home.
