Stats from the Energy Savings Trust tell us that heating our homes account for 55% of our annual energy bills. And with Blighty having more rain and cloud than it does sunny days, it’s no great surprise we keep reaching for the thermostat.
So, fitting one that helps you use less energy and save on bills – like the Nest Learning Thermostat – is a no-brainer. And Nest boasts some pretty impressive numbers claiming that UK customers have saved between 8.4% and 16.5% on their heating bills while using its smart device.
Want to know more? Here’s how Nest can help you save…
You can wave bye-bye to fiddly thermostats and heating that’s been left on all day with the Nest Learning Thermostat. It does the job of a thermostat and programmer all in one using your home Wi-Fi and a smartphone app to talk to your boiler.
This clever system learns your routine and your heating preferences – all you have to do is turn the thermostat up or down whenever you feel hot or cold. By the end of the first week it’ll have created an automatic programme and begun to adjust the heating to suit your daily life. And it never stops learning. As your heating needs change so does the Nest.
Don’t know if you’re coming or going? Don’t worry, Nest will. Thanks to its connection with your smartphone it knows when you’ve left home and sets itself an Eco Temperature to help save energy – and your precious pennies.
