Cost-saving Electronic Thermostats
If you add an automatic thermostat to your Hidden
Valley vacation property, you'll save on your heat and air
costs. Digital thermostats let you set program settings
for
winter and summer seasons. Most allow you different settings for
weekends vs. weekdays.
Thermostats can be very simple to install yourself,
and a very good one should cost you less than US$100. Instruct
your cleaning staff or property management company to re-set the
thermostat, each time they visit the unit.
It is also a good idea to put warning signs up near the thermostat
instructing the renters not to adjust it. If it is to cold or
hot they are likely to make there own adjustment so it might be
worth giving them the know how to do it right. It is also a good
idea to review your heating and electric bills. If you are not
careful you will end up paying way to much in the winter.
