Smart thermostats are starting to be a requirement for homeowners. But which thermostat is the best? Pardee Service Experts is here with the top smart thermostats available right now.
Nest
Practically everyone has heard of the Nest Learning Thermostat, and the great thing about Nest is you can integrate many home devices into the one easy app. Nest provides indoor cameras, great for baby monitors, and outdoor cameras, for increased security. Nest also has smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, which send alerts to your mobile device whenever smoke or CO is detected.
What makes the Nest thermostat “smart” is that it can learn your customs, your temperature preferences, and even your daily routine so it knows when you’re away. Eventually, 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 your location, or for $250 without installation.
Honeywell
The Honeywell Wifi Smart Thermostat doesn’t have the same learning capabilities as the Nest, however, it is user-friendly to setup and can be programmed with just some simple questions. You can alter the schedule at any time and the thermostat keeps you informed about any changes in indoor climate and even notifies you when you should replace 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 thermostat even alerts you of extreme temperature changes!

Ecobee3
The Ecobee3 Smart Wifi Thermostat learns your routines, similar to the Nest, but a cool feature of the Ecobee3 is the remote sensors. If your thermostat isn’t located in a central location in your home, the remote sensors help the Ecobee3 know if you’re truly away from the home or if you’re just lingering in one room.
While almosmt all the “smart” thermostats learn your routines and adjust your thermostat accordingly to save you money on energy bills, people who love reports will really enjoy the Ecobee3. You can program different zones and get reports on average temperatures, how much money you’ve saved, and more.
Right now you can get the Ecobee3 2nd Generation from Service Experts for about $250.
