Best Thermostat Settings for Seasonal Changes: Tips from Island Airco

September 19, 2024 | Blog

As the seasons shift from summer’s heat to the cooler fall weather in Eureka Springs, it’s important to adjust your thermostat to keep your home comfortable and energy-efficient. With the right thermostat settings, you can make sure your home stays cozy while also keeping energy costs down. Here’s how to manage your heating and cooling system effectively during the seasonal transition, and how Island Airco can help you with heating and air conditioning maintenance and repairs.

Optimal Thermostat Settings for Changing Weather

As the weather cools, your thermostat settings should be adjusted for both comfort and efficiency. Here are some simple guidelines:

  • During the Day: As the temperature drops, set your thermostat to around 68°F while you’re home. This is a comfortable setting that won’t overwork your heating system.
  • At Night: Lower your thermostat to around 60-62°F for better energy savings and improved sleep.
  • For Warmer Days: On days that still feel warm, keep your thermostat around 72-75°F to balance comfort and energy efficiency.

A programmable thermostat is a great way to manage these settings automatically, ensuring your home stays comfortable while also reducing energy consumption.

Efficiency Tips for Managing Your HVAC System

  1. Make Gradual Adjustments: Rather than making large jumps in temperature, gradually adjust your thermostat as the weather changes. This helps your HVAC system run more efficiently.
  2. Use Ceiling Fans for Circulation: Ceiling fans can help distribute air more evenly, making your home feel warmer or cooler without needing to change the thermostat as frequently.
  3. Schedule a Heating System Tune-Up: Before the colder months fully set in, it’s essential to ensure your heating system is ready. Island Airco offers heating system tune-ups to ensure your furnace or heat pump is running smoothly and efficiently.
