Oct. 5, 2009 - PRLog -- No one wants to spend more than they have to for heating or cooling their home. A programmable thermostat like the Aube TH106 can cut your heating or cooling costs by up to 20%. An electronic thermostat can be used to control all types of electric heating systems such as electric baseboard heaters, electric radiant ceiling heaters, electric radiant floor heat and electric convectors. The programmable features of an electronic thermostat allow you to accurately set the temperature in your home even when you're not there; so no more forgetting to turn down the temperature before you leave for work!

Having precise control of your heating and cooling is a top priority when it comes to cutting your energy costs. And with the significant savings you get from an electric thermostat, you can easily recover the cost of the thermostat in a relatively short period of time.

Programmable Thermostat Facts
1. You'll need a thermostat for each heating/cooling unit that you have for your home.
2. Many thermostats have advanced programmable features which allow you to set the temperature for every day of the week, 4 settings or more per day.
3. Programmable thermostats allow you to temporarily override its settings to accommodate custom situations. It will automatically resume the programmed settings at the next time interval. Some even have a vacation setting for long periods away from home.
4. Installing an electronic thermostat yourself is relatively easy.
5. Make sure your thermostat has a battery back-up feature to save the program in case of a power outage.
6. Many thermostats have easy to follow instructions printed on the inside plastic cover of the thermostat.
7. If you work at home every day, or have family members who are home every day, the benefit of a programmable thermostat will be less.
