Did you know?

Buildings with smart thermostats can reduce heating costs by up to 10-15% annually.

In colder climates like Scandinavia, this can lead to significant savings while also cutting down on energy use.

Here’s something you might not know:

Recent studies have shown that integrating smart thermostats with other energy-efficient technologies, like heat pumps and solar panels, can amplify these savings even further, making it a key component in a broader sustainability strategy.

The big idea:

As the weather gets colder, keeping your office, manufacturing facilities and your home warm becomes a priority.

BUT, heating doesn’t have to come at the expense of your energy bill or the environment.

Smart thermostats offer a simple and effective solution, allowing you to control your heating more efficiently and save energy in the process.

They learn your schedule.

Adjust the temperature based on your habits.

And even take the weather into account.

This means you’re not heating an empty building or wasting energy when you’re already comfortable. Plus, you can control them remotely using your smartphone, giving you flexibility no matter where you are.

For building owners in Europe and particularly in Scandinavia, where winters can be long and harsh, the benefits are clear.

By using a smart thermostat, you can reduce your energy consumption and lower your heating bills.

Some studies suggest that these devices can pay for themselves within a year or two through energy savings alone.

Tip of the week:

Make the most of your smart thermostat with these tips:

1. Set a schedule: Programme your thermostat in your office, factory or home to lower the temperature when you’re asleep or away and raise it when you’re back.

2. Integrate with other smart systems: Connect your thermostat to other energy-efficient technologies like solar panels or smart lighting for even greater savings.

3. Use zoning: If your office, factory or home has multiple zones, use your smart thermostat to control them separately, so you’re only heating the rooms you use.

4. Monitor and adjust: Regularly check your energy usage through the thermostat’s app and make adjustments to optimise savings.

By making this small change, you’re not just saving money - you’re contributing to a more sustainable future.
