How do smart thermostats work?
With smart thermostats, you can set a schedule that will change your heating and cooling according to the ambient temperature in your home. Upon sensing a temperature rise above the set limit, the smart thermostat sends a signal to the receiver to lower it.

Wi-Fi-connected smart thermostats connect to your phone via an app. You can use the app to schedule your heat or cooling to turn on and off, and to adjust the temperature of your home from anywhere.
