What is a Programmable Thermostat?
A programmable thermostat allows you to set a schedule for your HVAC system, so you can be in control of your thermostat even when you’re not at home. They vary based on make so you can choose one that fits your needs and lifestyle. You can set a schedule for your temperature to be lower or higher while your home is empty. Though, upon your return be at your desired temperature. By decreasing your indoor temperature in the summer or increasing it winter will let your system get a rest and not run as often. This could help lower your energy bill and help prevent wear on your system. If you don’t have a programmable thermostat and turn your indoor temperature up or down when you leave, be sure when you return to increase or decrease the temperature gradually. If you make a dramatic change on your thermostat it will cause your system to overwork. A programmable thermostat will prevent this.

You can choose between a few different schedules. Some have 5-2, some 5-1-1. Or you can upgrade to a Wi-Fi compatible one. This will allow you not only to set a schedule, but control your thermostat from anywhere with your smartphone. This is a great option for those who travel often.
