Welcoming the new wifi thermostat
I finally do confess that adding a smart thermostat to our beach cabin was way overdue, and that’s squarely on me.
For the longest time, I was just sort of resistant to the idea of getting a smart thermostat.
For one thing, I just wasn’t interested in getting more technology. Over the last 20 years, I’ve incorporated more technology into my life than I ever thought I would. And it’s even getting to a point where I cannot even get our work done inside the zone controlled heating, ventilation and A/C of the office without all kinds of technology. And that consistently kind of makes myself and others feel sort of too dependent when it comes to all the conveniences and technology advancements. Additionally, I’ve consistently been the girl who absolutely pays close attention to where the thermostat is all the time. This is because I’m the one who makes sure that my associate and I have an air conditioner strategy going into the summer. I do my part to make sure the cabin is ready and sealed up tight. But I also go into the summer time thinking about new ways to save when it comes to the air conditioner demand. My friend and I live in a region where heat and humidity are intense for a stretch of about eight or so weeks. And without reining in that utility cost, air conditioner usage can get unquestionably expensive very swiftly. So I consistently paid attention and kept a pretty strict discipline when it came to thermostat control. I suppose having the smart thermostat was also kind of giving up that role in the cabin when it came to our finances. But I have to say that the smart thermostat is the indisputable champion when it comes to saving on the heating and cooling costs inside our home.
