Smart home devices aren’t just smart because they can connect to the internet, or tell you about the weather — rather, the very best devices are designed to help you save money. Take the Google Nest Thermostat E, for example.
This smart home thermostat—which is on sale for $145, or $55 off at Amazon—can analyze how you’re heating and cooling your home and adjust accordingly. In fact, it knows to keep it toasty when your family is home, and tone it down when it’s just you. It also automatically turns down as soon as you leave your house for the day.
The Google Nest Thermostat E also syncs with your smartphone via the Nest app. Now you can control the temperature of your home, even if you’re heading home from the store or just landed from a flight. It’s even great if you’re in bed and just don’t want to get up to adjust the thermostat.
You can also connect the thermostat to a Google Home Mini for hands-free navigation and voice commands. Now you can simply tell the Google Assistant your exact preferred temperature.
And as a result, it can lower your heating bill and save you more money month-to-month, so it pays for itself in the long run. According to Nest, the Google Nest Thermostat E can save you an average of up to 12 percent on a heating bill and up to 15 percent on cooling per year. That’s up to $145 a year, so it basically pays for itself.
We don’t know about you, but that sounds pretty smart to us!
