Bobby Hett

We had a main line drain clog under the house. Russell was our technician and approached the problem from outside the house, working retrograde from a trap in the front yard. I was skeptical but it worked when my efforts with a cable inside the house had failed. He was very professional and pleasant to deal with.  We asked him to install a cleanout closer to the house for future use and we were very satisfied with the work.

Tyler is the best! He came to our parent's house, knew exactly what the problem was, and explained it to us without the typical guesswork. I'd recommend him any time you need a good plumber.

Overall, It was a very good experience with the Service Hero team. I was able to schedule an appointment late in the night. They are truly 24x7. The help desk team was very professional, courteous, and friendly. All responses were timely. The field technician showed up on time and diagnosed the issue accurately. Kudos to the Service Hero team!

In this brief article brought to you by Service Hero, we offer some tips on selecting the ideal smart thermostat for your home or business. If you ever need HVAC maintenance, you can put your faith in the uniformed professionals at Service Hero.

Understanding the basics

At its core, a thermostat regulates the temperature of a heating and cooling system and makes sure that the property maintains a desired temperature. Traditional thermostats achieve this with basic mechanisms, but smart thermostats leverage advanced technology to provide enhanced functionality. These devices not only allow precise temperature control but also offer programmable settings, learning capabilities, remote access, and integration with other smart home systems.

Key features of smart thermostats

Smart thermostats offer a host of features, but five key features to remember include:

  • Programmability: Smart thermostats allow users to set different temperatures for different times of the day. This means you can wake up to a warm house, cool it down while you're at work, and heat it up again before you return home.
  • Learning Capabilities: Many smart thermostats can learn your schedule and preferences over time, automatically adjusting settings to optimize comfort and energy efficiency.
  • Remote Access and Control: Through dedicated mobile apps, users can control their thermostats from anywhere in the world.
  • Integration with Smart Home Systems: Smart thermostats often integrate with other smart home devices, such as voice assistants (Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant), smart lights, and security systems. This creates a cohesive ecosystem where devices work together to enhance your living experience.
  • Energy Monitoring and Reporting: Advanced smart thermostats provide detailed reports on energy usage, helping homeowners understand their consumption patterns and identify opportunities for further savings.

Factors to consider when buying a smart thermostat

Selecting the right smart thermostat involves more than just picking the latest model. Here are just some of the factors to keep in mind when shopping around:

  • Compatibility: Ensure that the thermostat you choose works with your existing system, whether it's a single-stage, multi-stage, or heat pump system.
  • Installation: How easy is the installation? Evaluate your comfort level with installation or be prepared to hire a technician if necessary.
  • User Interface: Look for thermostats with intuitive controls and a well-designed app that provides clear and useful information.
  • Price: Smart thermostats range in price from under $100 to several hundred dollars.
  • Advanced Features: If you prioritize energy savings, look for thermostats with robust learning algorithms and energy reporting. If integration with other smart devices is crucial, ensure the thermostat supports those connections.
