With winter just around the corner, it’s a smart idea to start getting prepared, and there is no better way to prepare for the cold weather season than by investing in smart home technology. On average, smart home tech can save you about $130 per year.
In fact, there are two smart home items that are perfect for this time of year — smart thermostats and home automation.

Smart Thermostats
Smart thermostats are an excellent addition to any home if you’re looking to cut back on your energy bill. These smart tools allow you to live a more sustainable lifestyle while improving comfortability.
Smart thermostats are able to monitor and record your family’s activity when you’re home — and even when you’re not.
When no one’s home, you can adjust your smart thermostat remotely, ensuring you use less energy. So by saving energy, you’ll be saving money, which can be great come the holiday season.
Benefits
With a smart thermostat, you’ll be able to save money due to your central heating and air conditioning only being used when it needs to be. Additionally, smart thermostats can reduce heating costs by 10 percent, which can mean major savings during the winter months.
Plus, with remote usage, you can warm (or cool) your home before you arrive. This can be an excellent tool for families on the go.
Home Automation
When it comes to smart homes, home automation is the gold standard.
Home automation is basically like having a remote control for your entire home right in your pocket that can be used at any time of day.
Home automation tools are a great addition to any smart home for those who have a busy lifestyle or in “emergency” situations, such as when you forget to turn off your bedroom lights or want to make sure you locked the backdoor.
With home automation, you can lock doors, control your home’s temperature, check security cameras, control lighting and appliances, and much more.
Benefits
With home automation, there’s less to worry about when it comes to your home.
Expecting guests but won’t be home for another hour? Unlock the door and easily turn on your living room lights for them.
On vacation but want to make sure everything is fine back home? Remotely check in your smart security cameras via your smartphone or tablet.
Plus, after an initial investment, smart home tech actually saves you money.
