How Home Automation Can Lower Your Energy Bills This Winter
When the cold weather sets in, many Calgary homeowners experience common and persistent problems with their heating system, including coming home to a cold house or only having some rooms warmed up.
If this sounds familiar, installing a state-of-the-art home automation system may be the answer you are looking for: one that could save you a lot of aggravation, money and effort by allowing you to:
1. CONTROL YOUR INDOOR CLIMATE
With the help of smart thermostats, you can set temperatures for various times of the day. For instance, you can choose to increase the heat in time for when your family returns back from school and/or work.
In addition, with multiple zoning systems, home automation and smart thermostats allow you to heat up only the parts of the home which you use. After all, continuously heating up a large, rarely-used basement is a waste of energy and money.
2. INCREASE YOUR COMFORT LEVEL
You might have your own heating preferences, while another family member might not feel comfortable at the same temperature. With a customizable zoning system, a smart thermostat allows you to maintain different levels and rooms at specific temperatures of your choice.
3. SAVE ON YOUR HEATING BILLS
According to studies, homeowners with a home automation system can save up to 10% on their heating costs annually. In addition, you’ll be one step closer to going green by avoiding unnecessary energy usage.
With the rising costs of heat and electricity, there really is no better time than now to invest in a home automation system.
4. CONTROL YOUR LIGHTING
Smart lights are another great way to cut costs and increase your home’s energy efficiency. Installing occupancy sensors as part of your home automation package will allow you to enjoy lights on when you’re in the room, and will automatically turn them off when you leave.
