Overview
We've had a few Air Conditioning mishaps lately. We've also had a problem with the air being turned down and left down for days at a time. So to combat this problem today I ventured into Home Depot and picked up a Honeywell Programmable Thermostat. It's a very simple and basic 5-2 day thermostat. The 5-2 day means that it can have 2 different schedules, one for the week and one for the weekend. The thermostat boasts that it could save us up to 33% on our energy bill depending on our region and if it's used as directed. We'll definitely have to see about that.
The actual installation process is supposed to take 15 minutes according to the packaging. This is the first thermostat I've installed so I went and watched a couple of videos and was pretty confident I could figure it out.
