TENANT THERMOSTAT USE IN KANSAS CITY
It may not seem like it, but tenant thermostat use in Kansas City is a topic worth reviewing with a new tenant. I was recently approached by a tenant in Kansas City who was explaining to me the heat was not working in their house. Upon closer investigation the programmable thermostat was not programmed correctly making their house warm at night and cold during the day. Fortunately, this was an understandable mistake that was easy to remedy. With our cold winters and humid summers it pays to have someone review tenant thermostat use in Kansas City properties.
SMARTER THERMOSTATS EQUALS ENERGY SAVINGS
Today’s thermostats are getting ever smarter and are excellent tools yielding energy efficiency and lower utility bills. High end thermostats can program themselves, be controlled from your smart phone, and help guide you toward energy savings. Lower end models may have to be manually programmed but still yield considerable savings over non-programmable models.
PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE
Regardless of the type of thermostat in your home, it is always a great idea to provide instructions to your tenants how to operate the thermostat, whether or not it is programmable. Besides saving your tenant money in utility bills, proper education and operation can save you money from unneeded service calls when your tenant thinks the heat may not be working. Someone who understands the operation of their thermostat can also prevent your HVAC system from premature breakdowns resulting from overuse.
