Based on various homeowner reports online, most energy savings actually come from having fewer electronic devices running and heating off or low when no one is at home. Additionally, adding motion sensors to rooms lowers interior temperatures by limiting power when no one is at home. For example: if no one is at home, activate only one motion sensor since keeping it inactive lowers interior temperatures and energy usage more than activating multiple motion sensors.

The Bosch Smart Home Room thermostat is a great way to maintain optimal temperatures in your home without spending an excessive amount of money on AC units or electronic gadgets for controlling interior temperatures. Since most savings come from reducing usage during non-occupied periods, following guidelines and using common sense related to power usage when people are home or away could maximize overall savings when using this smart system.
