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.
