Smart thermostats are becoming a requirement for homeowners. But which device is the best? Neal Harris Service Experts is here with the top smart thermostats available right now.
Nest
Practically everyone has heard of the Nest Learning Thermostat, and the wonderful thing about Nest is you can incorporate many home devices into the one convenient app. Nest makes indoor cameras, ideal for baby monitors, and outdoor cameras, for heightened security. Nest also manufactures smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, which send notifications to your mobile device whenever smoke or CO is detected.
What makes the Nest thermostat “smart” is that the device can learn your customs, your temperature preferences, and even your daily routine so it understands when you’re away. After a while, you can stop messing with your thermostat because it will raise and lower the temperature automatically and adjust for the seasons. In the event your routine changes, like if you go on vacation, if you forgot to adjust your thermostat, you can just get out your phone and make any changes through the app.
You can buy the Nest 3rd Generation with professional installation from Service Experts for about $350 depending on what area you’re in, or for $250 for just the thermostat.
Honeywell
The Honeywell Wifi Smart Thermostat doesn’t have the same learning capabilities as the Nest, however, it is easy to setup and can be programmed with just a couple simple questions. You can alter the schedule at any time and the device keeps you informed about any changes in indoor climate and even alerts you when you should swap out the air filter in your heating equipment for optimal efficiency. You can make any changes via your mobile app, whether you’re on the couch or in the next state. The Honeywell even alerts you of extreme temperature changes!

Ecobee3
The Ecobee3 Smart Wifi Thermostat comprehends your routines, similar to the Nest, but a great feature of the Ecobee3 is the remote sensors. If your thermostat isn’t centrally located in your home, the remote sensors help the Ecobee3 comprehend if you’re actually away from the home or if you’re just remaining in one room.
While most all the “smart” thermostats learn your habits and adjust your thermostat accordingly to save you money on utility bills, homeowners who like reports will really be into the Ecobee3. You can program separate zones and generate reports on average temperatures, how much money you’ve saved, and more.
Ask how you can get the Ecobee3 2nd Generation from Service Experts for about $250.
