While it’s tempting to believe that he who controls the thermostat in your household controls the comfort of the family, the truth is that the real control rests with the thermostat itself.
Thermostats are divided generally into two main types – electronic and electromechanical. Of these, the conventional electromechanical model works well for people who like an easy-to-use, non-technological setup and tend to maintain regular schedules. The electronic types, however, offer homeowners more control at different times of the day, while also serving as a more sensitive gauge of temperature.
