A simple upgrade for big savings
Heating and cooling can account for over 50 percent of your home’s energy use. Smart thermostats offer an easy and efficient way to manage home temperatures compared to traditional programmable models. They learn your household preferences, adjust temperatures automatically for comfort and
efficiency, and allow remote control from any wi-fi-enabled device. By optimizing heating and cooling, smart thermostats help maintain comfort while aiming to reduce unnecessary energy use and costs.
Upgrading to a smart thermostat is a simple way to take control of home energy use. With SMECO Switch2Earn, getting one is even easier. Eligible members will receive a smart thermostat at no additional cost, complete with professional installation.
