Creating A More Energy Efficient Smart Home

In our homes today, one of the most important advancements we have is smart home technology.  In American homes, we can find devices turning on our lights for us, among many other things. As technology continues to transform, we have more control and convenience than ever before.  We have smart home hubs, smart plugs, and thermostats, and let’s not forget the newest devices:  Amazon Alexa, Apple HomeKit, Google Assistant, and IFTTT.  Each of these systems offers its own way of expanding your capabilities, thereby making your home easier to manage and all the more efficient.

 

In terms of numbers, 57 percent of Americans save 30 minutes per day by using smart devices to handle their daily tasks.  That is more than half of Americans.  What’s more interesting, is that 70 percent of these customers claim their first purchase has increased their desire for more.  This is not surprising, since help is something we all tend to need.  

Everything Is Going Wireless, So Why Not Your Thermostat Too?

A thermostat is used to control the temperature in any given room by regulating your air conditioning or heating system. Most often these are connected to your HVAC system through wiring. 

Wireless thermostats provide you with so much more freedom in respect to controlling your heating or cooling temperature. These days everything, and I mean everything can be controlled using your smartphone and now you can do the same for your heating and cooling equipment! There are some more advanced systems that allow you to freely control the heating and cooling when you are away from home.

Metro Heating and Cooling is currently celebrating summer with discounts on AC tune-ups and qualifying HVAC equipment upgrades. Help stop your home’s AC from failing with a yearly AC tune-up from Metro Heating & Cooling. Did you know we offer a 5 year maintenance agreement with the purchase of a high efficiency air conditioning system? To learn more about these specials or schedule your seasonal A/C system tune-up, call or text us at 877-839-1122 to reserve your spot on our schedule!  

If you are having issues? trouble shoot it!

If something is not operating properly… It’s time to troubleshoot it and if that doesn’t fix it, reserve your spot on our schedule for service / repair. Homeowners who stay on top of their regular home maintenance needs may come across ads for things like “AC Tune-Up”, “AC Inspection”, or “AC Service”. You may know that having your AC unit regularly checked by a licensed technician is crucial to keeping it functioning at peak performance, but you may not know which of these services is the right one. Learning what to ask for, whether you need seasonal maintenance or more immediate repairs, can help you get the service you need in the most timely manner. Here’s a quick link to our number – Click to call or text – 877-839-1122
