Many people don't see the value in replacing a thermostat and how using a programmable version versus the older mercury thermostat, can literally save 25% on your heating and cooling costs!
Heres How!
When are you home? Most of the time, we are home in the morning, from 6-7:30 am as we get ready for work, then again when we get home in the evening, from say 5:30-10:11 when we retire and go to sleep.
That period of time during the day when nobody is home accounts for about 25-35% of the day right? What if you had the ability to automatically change the temperture a few degrees, since truthfully, novody will be affected by it - You arent home!
Installing a new programmable tstat can be done in 20 minutes and will pay you back within the first 3 months of being there! Some of the most common are made from Honeywell, White Rogers and a few other manufacturers.
