No matter where you live, your monthly energy bill is often more than you anticipated. Consider having a smart Wi-Fi thermostat installed in your home. This device can’t solve all your energy-related issues in your home but can definitely save you some money! Wirecutter, a New York Times Company, recommends the popular Google Nest Thermostat E. It’s a great device by optimizing your home’s heating and cooling settings so that it’s not running more than necessary. According to a survey, on average, Nest owners save 10 to 15 percent on their energy bill. It’s an obvious solution to save energy and money you should be setting the temperature back. By doing so during times you may not need it as much such as when you’re gone for the day or when you’re sleeping. “The Department of Energy says that just by setting your thermostat back from 7 to 10 degrees for eight hours a day you can save as much as 10 percent of your bill.” With a smart thermostat and consistently setting your temperature back, you can easily save almost 25% of your current bill!

The great thing about having a smart Wi-Fi thermostat is that you can automate your energy from almost anywhere with an app. Having the ability to automatically schedule your energy makes it even more convenient to control the cost of your bill. With all of the technology we have, you can tell Siri, Google Assistant, or Alexa to adjust the settings or pair your thermostat with other smart devices.
