| Thermostats
Thermostats help your heating and cooling equipment maintain
the optimal temperature setting with the maximum energy efficiency.
Today’s electronic models are a vast departure from
earlier mechanical styles.
Pro-Air offers two styles of thermostats to meet your needs.
Electronic Thermostats
Programmable Thermostats
Electronic Thermostats
Electronic thermostats work in much the same
way as older, manual thermostats did. A microprocessor inside
compares the thermometer reading of a room’s temperature
to the desired temperature you select. Then, it gives start
and stop commands to the heating or cooling system to bring
the temperature to a level that makes you comfortable. It's
up to you to change the settings when you need move comfort.
Programmable Thermostats
Programmable thermostats basically work the
same as electronic thermostats with more features for comfort,
efficiency and convenience. Simply program the temperatures
you need, and the times of day you need them, to stay comfortable
and save energy all season. You only need to program it once
-- until the season or your lifestyle changes.
Energy Savings
The most important way that a programmable
thermostat saves energy is in its setback feature. When you
don’t need a normal level of heating or cooling, you
can program the thermostat to set the temperature back until
the next pre-programmed time when you want normal temperatures.
Programming temperatures around 63 F on cold winter nights,
when you’re snuggled under blankets, can help you save
as much as 15% on your heating costs. You can save even more
by programming your system to "setback" the temperature
when your family is away at work, at school, or on vacation.
In summer, setbacks work much the same way for central air
conditioning.
