What Homeowners Need to Know About Smart Thermostats

Smart thermostats are becoming increasingly popular among Edmonton homeowners, offering greater control over your home’s heating and cooling systems.

But are they worth the investment?

In this article, our Habberjam At Home experts outline what Edmonton homeowners need to know about smart thermostats, how they work, and why they might be a smart choice.

What Is a Smart Thermostat?

A smart thermostat is a Wi-Fi-enabled device that allows homeowners to remotely control their home’s heating and cooling systems via a smartphone or tablet. Unlike traditional thermostats, which require manual adjustments, smart thermostats learn your schedule, make automatic adjustments, and can help reduce energy consumption.

Discover how a smart thermostat can improve your home’s heating efficiency with our HVAC services.

Energy Savings for Edmonton Homeowners

One of the primary reasons homeowners invest in smart thermostats is for energy savings. According to Natural Resources Canada, smart thermostats can significantly reduce heating and cooling costs. They achieve this by learning your schedule and automatically lowering energy use when you’re away or asleep. With Edmonton’s cold winters, this feature can help your family save significantly on heating costs.

Are you looking to reduce your home’s energy bills? Consider booking a consult with a Habberjam At Home technician and ask about upgrading to a smart thermostat.

Smart Thermostats and Home Zoning Capabilities

One of the lesser-known features of smart thermostats is their zoning capabilities. If your home has multiple heating or cooling zones, a smart thermostat can control each zone independently. This means you can heat specific areas of your home while leaving others cooler, improving comfort and further reducing energy costs.

Want to optimize your home’s heating with zoning functionality? Contact Habberjam At Home today to learn more about smart thermostat installations.

Compatibility and Smart Thermostat Installation

Before upgrading or purchasing a smart thermostat, it’s essential to check if it’s compatible with your current HVAC system. While most modern smart thermostats work with a wide range of systems, some older heating and cooling setups may require additional equipment or professional installation. It’s always a good idea to consult an HVAC expert to ensure proper installation and functionality.

Very positive experience with the sales and technical team installing our new air conditioning system. Had a couple prior quotes that were trying to sell us systems beyond what we needed. Kerry walked us through exactly what our unique house required with competitive pricing, and delivered on time and as promised.

Great and quick service. Recently moved to a place that has a hi velocity system. Kieran came out and inspected the unit to ensure it was working properly and walked me through all the setting and how it works with the hrv. He made sure the system was working properly, answered all my questions and gave great tips and how to use this system to meet my needs.

My Initial review was based on the interactions I had with Jackie but if I had to neglect that, I had very positive experiences with their service technicians. Kerry who is a service manager definitely elevated that experience :)
