How to Set Your Thermostat for Seasonal Changes: Tips from Air Tech of Pasadena

September 18, 2024 | Blog

As the seasons transition from the heat of summer to the cooler days of fall, adjusting your thermostat to match the changing weather is key to maintaining comfort and energy efficiency in your home. With the right temperature settings, you can keep your home cozy while saving on energy bills. Here’s how to find the optimal thermostat settings as the seasons change—and how Air Tech of Pasadena can assist with any HVAC needs you encounter along the way.

Ideal Thermostat Settings for Transitional Weather

Finding the perfect temperature for your thermostat during seasonal changes can be a balancing act. Use these guidelines to help maintain a comfortable home:

  • During the Day: As the temperature drops, set your thermostat to around 68°F during the day when you’re home. This temperature keeps you warm without causing your heating system to overwork.
  • At Night: Lowering your thermostat to around 60-62°F while you sleep can improve comfort and help reduce energy usage.
  • Warmer Days: When the weather is still warm during the day, keep your thermostat around 72-75°F to ensure your air conditioning system runs efficiently.

A programmable thermostat can make managing these temperature changes easier by automatically adjusting based on your schedule. This helps keep your home comfortable while also minimizing energy consumption.

HVAC Efficiency Tips for Seasonal Transitions

  1. Adjust Gradually: Rather than making sudden changes to your thermostat, adjust the temperature gradually as the weather cools. This helps your system operate more efficiently.
  2. Use Ceiling Fans: Ceiling fans can assist with air circulation, making your home feel warmer or cooler, depending on the direction. This can reduce the need to adjust your thermostat as frequently.
  3. Schedule a Heating System Tune-Up: Before the cooler months fully set in, it’s essential to have your heating system inspected and maintained. Air Tech of Pasadena offers professional heating system tune-ups to ensure your furnace is ready for the colder weather ahead.
