If you have just one thermostat to help keep your home warm in the winter and cool in the summer, you’re probably paying higher-than-needed utility costs.
Think of it this way. Is each room occupied all the time or often enough that it warrants full comfort? Conversely, do you have kids away at Benefits college or, closer to home, who are gone eight or so hours a day attending local schools?
The point is, cool and heat where the people are, and save money where they’re not. That’s why Eagle Service Company recommends whole-house zone control. That means sub-dividing your home into a series of zones, each with its own thermostat.
Here’s how that benefits you:
- Customizable comfort. A zoned system enables you to control the temperature in each zone, one at a time. Using only the living or TV room in the evening? That’s where you want the full measure of warm or cool air. When you go to bed, you can change temperatures from zone to zone accordingly.
- Greater energy efficiency. With multiple zones, you can enjoy comfy temperatures only when and where you need them. In fact, a fully-zoned heating and cooling system can cut your monthly utility costs by up to 40%.
- Programmability. Controlling your home energy costs isn’t just about the number of zones. Replacing conventional thermostats with programmable models can help you save even more. Today, you even have the choice of programmable thermostats with remote Wi-Fi access, meaning you can change temperature settings no matter where you are using your thermostat app.
Whole-house zone control and programmable thermostats are two of numerous ways we can help you enjoy maximum indoor comfort less. For more information and a free in-home comfort analysis and zoning control proposal, contact Eagle Service Company today.
