Smart Thermostats: Benefits and Advantages for Homeowners | JADE Learning

Thermostats have changed a whole lot in the last 20 years. Gone are the mercury bulbs and long levers. Even first-generation programmable thermostats are second class to the newest variety. Thermostats such as Google Nest, Honeywell T9, and Ecobee lead the way with the latest features for home comfort and energy savings.

Smart thermostats make it easy to get comfortable.
