If you have specific heating and cooling needs in order to be comfortable then you've probably spent a little time looking at and operating your home thermostat. This handy little device controls the heating and air conditioning systems in your house -- the two pieces of equipment that use the most energy, and the ones that have the biggest impact on your comfort and quality of life.

In these days of rising energy prices, Digital thermostats use a simple device called a thermistor to measure temperature. This is a resistor which allows electrical resistance changes with temperature. The microcontroller in a digital thermostat can measure the resistance and convert that number to an actual temperature reading
  A digital thermostat can do a few things that a regular mechanical thermostat cannot. One of the most useful features of a digital thermostat is programmable settings. In the winter, you can program it to automatically turn up the heat for an hour or two in the morning while you get ready for work, turn down the heat until you get home, turn up the heat in the evening and then turn down the heat while you sleep. This is a great money-saving feature because you can simply turn down the heat when it isn't needed.

Thermostats can also communicate wirelessly through the Internet or via a home automation technology. These advanced thermostats can be adjusted via computer or Internet capable phone or PDA to allow users to adjust the temperature in their home without actually being there.

Newer Deluxe equipment have thermostats that communicate with the equipment. The thermostat recieves information from the equipment as decides how the equipment should be functioning
