Most people are familiar with traditional knob-style mechanical thermostats that probably came with their house. You walk in the room and turn the knob up to turn on the heat and when you leave you turn the knob down to turn off the heat. While they do a decent job of keeping you comfortable, they absolutely don’t do so as efficiently as possible, wasting your money.
Traditional Mechanical thermostats use a bi-metal control to approximate temperatures. When you set the thermostat to 65, the room might reach 65 but then continues to heat for an extended period of time, wasting energy. They simply are not that accurate. We call this a temperature swing and it is wasteful.
Electronic thermostats use much more accurate electronic sensing. Set the stat to 65 and you get 65 and no more.
Over the course of the year, that makes a huge difference in saving.
By maintaining that constant temperature not only will you be comfortable all winter, it will save you money.
At King, we have manufacturer a large range of electronic thermostats to suit any application, from simple push-button non-programmable models to more advanced models that can be programmed with your desired heating schedule.
Consider the benefits of a Programmable Electronic Thermostat:
Upgrading to a fully programmable 7-day thermostat means you can create a schedule that follows your family’s routine, and keeps the temperature warm while you’re there, but cuts back on the energy usage when you’re not home. Simply put, you spend less time adjusting your thermostat and more time feeling comfortable, all while saving money.
