Smart home innovation has become increasingly popular. It allows homeowners to connect a multitude of devices and features. A homeowner can cannot window blinds, outlets, thermostats, lights, clocks, speakers, cameras, looks, doorbells, alarms, vacuums, appliances and more!

Automating processes in your home can help reduce costs, and make life more simple.

Incorporating a smart thermostat into your home will save homeowners on energy costs. Heating and cooling account for about 40% of a home’s energy costs–plus everyone loves saving a little money, right?

There are a few smart thermostats on the market. The Nexia thermostat for example, has shown to save 10-12% on energy bills. Nexia is an intuitive that allows you to monitor and control your home’s climate from anywhere.

We love this because it is energy efficient. Heating an empty home doesn’t make a lot of sense.

Love your current thermostat? That’s cool but outdated systems sometimes aren’t accurate with the temperature. You have to manually shut them off and turn them on, and some don’t always read the temperatures correctly. If you’re still using an old model, it’s time to upgrade to a programmable thermostat.
