Smart Thermostats Optimize Savings and Comfort

Smart thermostats have become one of the most popular smart home devices, and for a good reason. Smart thermostats take the guesswork out of what adjustments need to be made throughout the day to maximize comfort and reduce your energy bills by up to $140 or more per year.

A smart thermostat can learn your habits, adjust HVAC settings and reduce energy use at times that least affect you — like when you're away from home or sleeping. Then, based on those habits, the smart thermostat — accounting for your home's heating and cooling performance and the weather outside — will return to your desired settings by the time it would affect you.

Smart thermostats are also connected. You can click on the app on your smartphone or ask your voice assistant to adjust settings or manage advanced features, like geofencing — which uses your phone's GPS to detect if you're close to home. And, most smart thermostats are compatible with existing heating and cooling systems.

Maximize the smart in your smart home with an ENERGY STAR-certified smart thermostat, which qualifies for a $75 SWEPCO rebate.
