I just bought a new smart thermostat.
This is the first time I have ever had one of these things and I have to say that I am having a tough time figuring out how to use the darn thing! I am not young and am used to the way things used to be with thermostats.
It was plain and simple. Just the flick of a switch and you could turn on the central heating or the central air conditioning. This smart thermostat really complicates things for this older dude. I can not figure out how to set up the app that controls it on the computer and cell phone first off. Then I can not figure out how to even do the programming of the smart thermostat itself by hand. I think I may need to spend a few bucks and call the local heating and air conditioning company. This may be the only way to learn how to use this smart thermostat. There should have been some kind of instruction manual that came with it but there was not. I for sure think I am going to call the heating and air conditioning company that I bought this thing from. If they can not teach me how to use this thing I may just end up eating the 40 bucks I paid for it and just go back to my old basic digital thermostat. That would be the best thing to do. After all, I need to be able to operate my central heating and air conditioning system when the weather ends up getting extreme hot or extreme cold!
