Smart Energy-Saving Thermostats

Google's New Nest Thermostat Can Be Controlled from Anywhere

— October 13, 2020 — Tech
A new Nest Thermostat from Google is now available for pre-order, and is offered in four unique colorways to suit any home interior.

The smart device is different from the Nest Learning Thermostat or Nest Thermostat E, and boasts a fresh design. Like Google's other smart home devices, the thermostat can be connected to the Google Home app, which allows users to turn the heat up or down with voice commands, control the temperature in their home from anywhere, or even set up a custom routine through Quick Schedule so that they don't have to think about it at all.

As the thermostat will automatically turn itself down when users aren't home, it can save them 10 to 12 percent on heating bills, and 15 percent on cooling.
