Sacramento's Premier Home Remodeling Company
When you’re looking to automate your home’s climate control system, save on energy bills, and control your heating and cooling from a single interface, even remotely, a smart home climate control system is what you need. For Sacramento homeowners that need help choosing, installing, and integrating a smart climate control system into your home automation, JC Construction & Remodeling can help you with every step.
Smart thermostats are Wi-fi enabled devices that automatically adjust the temperature and humidity in your home to your preferences. Over time, a smart thermostat can “learn” your preferences (i.e. cool in the afternoon, warmer in the middle of the night) and make adjustments automatically during the day to optimize the climate in your home to save energy. You can also program a smart thermostat to turn on the air conditioning or heat at a certain time of day, like when you are heading home from work, to optimize the climate and temperature in your home. Smart thermostats can also be controlled through smartphone apps, even remotely.
Using Wi-fi, smart thermometers send signals to the HVAC system when certain triggers are met. Instead of manually switching the air conditioner or heating on and off via a traditional thermostat, a smart thermostat is controlled through a central interface, or through a smartphone app. You can connect your smart thermostat to a home assistant, such as Google Home, Apple HomeKit, Alexa, and SmartThings. Many smart thermostats can also be programmed to recognize voice commands.
The home automation specialists at JC Construction & Remodeling can help you with installation and integration of your smart thermostat with your HVAC system and your home assistant software.
Some newer ductless HVAC (mini-splits) and heat pumps support smart home automation, allowing the homeowner to connect smart thermostats to each zone. This can allow heating or cooling of each room independently or in unison with other air handlers.
Smart thermostats can also be connected to legacy central air conditioning systems, allowing the heating and cooling to be turned on and off at certain times of day or when certain temperature thresholds are met.
One big advantage of smart climate control systems is some models can be programmed to prioritize occupied rooms, meaning the cooling or heating will change the climate in rooms where you are instead of empty rooms or hallways. This can be useful from a comfort perspective, and also for energy efficiency.
The team at JC Construction & Remodeling helps Sacramento area homeowners with home automation design, installation, and integration, including smart home climate control systems. Smart thermostats, WI-fi connected smart ceiling fans, window fans, ductless HVAC and heat pumps, and smart humidity sensors—our home automation experts do it all. For smart home integration and home automation installation, contact our specialists or schedule a free no-obligation consultation.
Ceiling fans can reduce the temperature between 4–6°F through the windchill effect, which can also help you save energy, as fans generally use less energy than central HVAC systems. Traditional ceiling fans can be retrofit with smart ceiling fan controllers, allowing homeowners to schedule times for the fans to turn on and off, and can also be programmed to follow voice commands.
It is most pragmatic to coordinate ceiling fans to turn on when your smart thermostat turns on the air conditioning, either by time of day or by temperature trigger. This can help reduced the workload on your air conditioning system and help save energy.
Some ceiling fan manufacturers offer built in smart fan systems that can integrate with home assistants such as Google Home and Alexa. A few ceiling fan manufacturers also support smart lighting, allowing the lights to dim or brighten with adjacent lighting.
