How Does a Wireless Thermostat Work?
Wireless thermostats work by using a main receiver that transmits information to all the wireless thermostats in your home. The receiver replaces your wired thermostat, and connects to your HVAC system just like a standard wired thermostat does. The wireless thermostat is battery operated and can be placed in a variety of locations; it just has to be close enough to the receiver to communicate with it, and this distance will be explained in the instructions. The thermostat stays in communication with the receiver by transmitting radio signals. Most wireless thermostats are programmable, and can set programs for up to 7 days. A single receiver can support up to 4 wireless thermostats.
Benefits of a Wireless Thermostat
There are several benefits to installing a wireless thermostat:
- Convenience – clearly, a wireless thermostat offers a level of convenience you can’t achieve with a wired thermostat. You can place a wireless thermostat virtually anywhere in your home, as long as it is within 500 feet of the receiver. This means you can control your temperature from virtually anywhere in your home.
- Energy efficiency – being able to program your thermostat allows you to control the amount of heating and cooling you use. For instance, if your home is mostly empty during the work week, you can program your HVAC system to cycle down during these times so that you are not heating or cooling an empty home. When you reduce the usage of your HVAC system, you reduce your energy usage.
- Comfort – a wireless thermostat relays information concerning the current temperature of the room it is in. This allows you to adjust that room’s temperature based on your heating and cooling needs.
