Talking Thermostats
These days, it seems like everyone is looking for ways to go green. Important actions such as recycling and reusing, conserving water and saving energy are the order of the day. There are many different ways we can contribute to helping the environment, and some of these methods may even help our pocketbooks as saving energy, by installation of new thermostats.
What Does a Thermostat Do?
A thermostat’s job is basically to control the output from your home’s heating or cooling system based on room temperature. This is done by what is basically a heat-activated switch. A heat sensor causes the opening or closing of the switch, which in turn starts, continues, or stops an electrical circuit that is connected to the house’s heating or cooling system. Many people prefer an electromechanical model to an electronic model simply because they are less expensive. Others prefer electromechanical models because they are not technically inclined and prefer simplicity.
Learning how to choose a good thermostat has became an important subject to many people. Since the rise of energy saving, many people are looking forward to save energy to save more money and protect the environment.

Thermostats
Your thermostat is the brain that operates your heating and air conditioning system(s).
When The Temperature Has To Be Right!
There are several issues that can arise from a poorly functioning temperature control unit.
Air Conditioning Zone Systems
In most homes you will find only one thermostat controlling the comfort levels for the entire house. This thermostat is usually located in a hallway and will keep the hallway at the temperature you set while other areas of the home range from too hot to too cold. Zoning Systems allow a thermostat in each room for individual temperature control.
Benefits of Zone Control
- Provides room by room comfort control.
- Reduces equipment run time.
- Eliminates hot/cold rooms.
- Works with conventional air conditioning units, furnaces, and heat pumps.
- Allows you to heat or cool only the areas you want, when you want.
- Saves energy and reduces utility bills.
You don’t have to buy a new heating and cooling system for every room. A Zoning System uses dampers in your ductwork that open and close as needed based on each zone’s thermostat settings. When a zone is at the selected temperature, and doesn’t need to be heated or cooled, the dampers close to save energy and maximize comfort elsewhere. Think of it as controlling your heating and air conditioning the same way you control your lights – a thermostat controls each zone to the temperature you choose.
