I currently have a “dial” thermostat. Would switching to an electronic thermostat be more energy efficient and save me money on my electric bills?
Electronic thermostats could save money depending on how they are set. There is a trade off between comfort and economy. If you want comfort, set the “dead band” to a narrow range. The dead band is the difference between the temperature at which the thermostat tells the air conditioner to come on and shut off.
