But unlike a programmable thermostat, a smart thermostat can be controlled on smartphones, tablets, and voice-controlled personal assistants like Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant.<\/p>\n<p>When you install a smart thermostat, you simultaneously install an app on your phone to control the thermostat. Through the app, you can schedule when your heating or cooling turns on and adjust the temperature of your home from anywhere. Smart thermostats also provide real-time energy usage data and allow you to track your energy consumption. Some function as a speaker and monitor air quality as well.<\/p>\n<p>The majority of smart thermostats use your home&#8217;s Wi-Fi to connect with the app on your phone. A smart thermostat has a touch screen, which provides a more user-friendly interface compared to the knobs and buttons of a programmable thermostat.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_Install_a_Smart_Thermostat\"><\/span>Why Install a Smart Thermostat?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/install-a-smart-thermostat-2-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"Contact Galmiche &amp; Sons for Smart Thermostat Installation in St. Louis\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-13623\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/install-a-smart-thermostat-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/install-a-smart-thermostat-2.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>A smart thermostat is, for many reasons, a smart investment. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/smart-thermostats-energy-efficient-hvac\/\">benefits of a smart thermostat<\/a> include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Saves Energy and Brings Cost Savings<\/strong>: When you install a smart thermostat, you can adjust the temperature settings on your smart thermostat when you are outside your home or on the go. If your home has multi-zone cooling, you can control each zone from your phone or tablet, and save energy by preventing the overcooling of unused rooms. Minimizing wasteful usage also helps you save more on heating and cooling costs.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Tracks Your Energy Usage<\/strong>: Another reason to install a smart thermostat is access to energy usage data, which you can use to further enhance efficiency. Smart thermostats provide reports on how and where your home uses energy. The reports track your energy consumption over time and some also compare it to similar homes in your area. Choosing the optimal <a href=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/optimal-thermostat-settings-for-summer\/\">thermostat settings for summer<\/a> can maximize comfort and efficiency.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Supports an Eco-Friendly Lifestyle<\/strong>: For some St. Louis homeowners, a smart thermostat is the ideal solution to erratic schedules and frequent episodes of forgetting to turn off heating or cooling. If you want to practice environmentally conscious cooling and integrate <a href=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/eco-friendly-ac-practices\/\">eco-friendly AC practices<\/a>, don&#8217;t wait to install a smart thermostat.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Learn more about integrating <a href=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/smart-heating-and-cooling-integration\/\">smart heating and cooling<\/a> devices into your system.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Contact_Galmiche_Sons_for_Smart_Thermostat_Installation_in_St_Louis\"><\/span>Contact Galmiche &amp; Sons for Smart Thermostat Installation in St. Louis<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>To install a smart thermostat, you must be familiar with the thermostat&#8217;s wiring, in particular the C-Wire, which provides continuous power from your HVAC system to the thermostat.
