Three Fall Savings Tips for Landlords
October 7, 2019Here’s Your Quick Fall Maintenance Checklist
November 4, 2019The arrival of the fall season often brings more comfortable temperatures, as well as reduced energy costs compared to the hotter summer months. However, winter is soon to come, presenting yet another season of heavy HVAC usage. For many landlords, this means another rise in costs, which can strain even the strictest budget.
An ideal solution for moderating your property’s HVAC usage is the installation of a landlord thermostat. A landlord thermostat can save you money no matter the season, but fall is the perfect time for installation.
What Is a Landlord Thermostat?
A landlord thermostat keeps the temperature within your ideal range regardless of tenant preferences. They are tamper-proof, meaning that your tenants will not be able to override the system without replacing the entire motherboard of the device. Keeping temperatures from the extremes prevents damage to your HVAC system due to constant fluctuations and helps minimize your energy costs no matter the season.

Why Is Fall the Perfect Time to Install a Landlord Thermostat?
As mentioned in our previous post, the fall season is a great time to perform a number of tasks, including the installation of a landlord thermostat. Here’s why.
- Preparation for winter. Winter is a time of peak usage for your heating system. Conversely, the early fall months are often lower-usage periods for both heating and AC. Installing a thermostat before heavy winter usage can ensure your winter energy costs are kept as low as possible.
- Seasonal maintenance. Ideally, you’re already performing fall inspections and routine fall maintenance on your properties. Installation of a landlord thermostat can take place alongside your other fall duties, allowing you to avoid excessive trips to any one property and saving additional time and money.
- Tenant comfort. A landlord thermostat is an upgrade from the builder-grade thermostats installed in many properties. Your landlord thermostat will provide your tenants with affordable, comfortable temperatures through the harsh winter months ahead and will continue to do so for seasons to come.
