TOPIC: PROGRAMMABLE THERMOSTATS

2010 01 19 Alliant 2

Do you remember those infomercials for some Ronco product, where they said, “Just set it…and forget it?  That’s exactly what you do with your programmable thermostat.  A lot of us have a set schedule – Church Sunday morning, kids to school, out the door for errands Monday through Friday, soccer games all day Saturday – so basically, what you do is to program the thermostat to match your life. You pick a comfortable temperature – and set the thermostat to be at that temperature when you’re normally at home and, when you’re not, you let it get colder during the winter and warmer during the summer.  That way, you’re not using the furnace to heat (or AC to cool) an empty house. Best of all, you don’t have to remember to turn the thermostat up or down when you leave the house and you can set it so you never notice that it got cold (or warm in summer) in your house while you were gone.

Don’t forget to check rebates and incentives offered by your energy provider.  For example Alliant Energy will reward your purchase with a $25 incentive check.  And, your expected savings, if installed and programmed properly, will pay you back for your purchase in a year or so.
