Smart Thermostats, like the variety of them available from Mysa, keep your home at the right temperature and save you money. You might think that a smart thermostat takes control of your home, but the opposite is true. They actually give you new abilities to make your home more comfortable and more energy efficient. Explore some of the advantages of a smart thermostat, then enter for a chance to win a new Mysa Smart Thermostat for AC and mini splits.

What makes a Mysa Thermostat smart

The main reason why most smart home technology is deemed “smart” is the integration of it’s main functionality with a mobile app. This allows the device to connect with the user in a variety of ways. For example, you can use the Mysa app to control the Mysa Thermostat to make your home warmer or cooler. And you can do so from anywhere in the world! For example, if you are on vacation when the temperature changes drastically near your home, such that you think your pets might be uncomfortable, you would use the app to adjust the temperature in your home as needed.

Part of the “smart” functionality is the ability for the device to easily work with other technologies. Mysa makes a range of Thermostats for unique technology challenges. The prize we are giving away in this contest can control air conditions and mini-splits. If you have baseboard heating, there is a Mysa smart thermostat designed to work specifically with that technology.

Are smart thermostats great for every home

I get asked this question about many types of smart home technology, and I’ve seen many of these come and go over the last decade. I sent the Mysa Smart thermostat for AC and Mini splits to two reviewers (Shelly for an English review and Stéphane for a French review). Both reviewers were impressed. Shelly stated that she already has a Mysa thermostat for the baseboard heaters in her home and loves the convenience and the extra control over her home heating needs and home heating expenses. She loved how easily this new device connected with her Insignia air conditioner so she could make sure her home stayed cool during hot summer days if she was away from the home. Stéphane too like the simple set up and he commented on the beautiful design of the product too.

Obviously, the Mysa thermostat we are giving away in this contest would not work in your home if you did not have an AC or Minisplit to control. So that is the first answer to the question above. But there are smart thermostats for pretty much every type of home heating and cooling set up. I think my home is one of the rare types that could not benefit from a smart thermostat since we only have a wood stove for heating and windows to open for cooling down! My home has lots of smart tech, just not for temperature control. I would love if Mysa figured out a smart thermostat for my situation!

  1. I have a natural gas furnace and would love the smart thermostat to be able to use less gas this winter

  2. I have natural gas heating and would love this to be able to save money and be more environmentally friendly on my usage at the same time.

  3. I have natural gas heating and would love this to be able to save money and be more environmentally friendly on my usage at the same time.

  4. We have electric heat very old thermoste either on or off so so a smart therm0stat would be very good

  5. Central Thermopompe style – I would like to bi-split on the wall for the thermostat to fit so I can control every room. Is that still feasible?

  6. I have natural gas and a smart thermostat has the ability to adjust to the needs of my home, warmer during the day, cool at night. Saves money in the long run and I don’t have to remember to turn the heat up and down.

  7. just moved into a condo with natural gas heating….we are used to heating with wood which we love so this should be interesting…. i think i will like the option of being able to turn the heat up while i am away so that the condo is nice and warm upon our arrival

  8. natural gas heating in my home
    love the automatic set up so that I can have it turned down when nobody is home

  9. I have an electric heat pump. What I like most about a smart thermostat is that you can use the app to control your home temperature from wherever you are. It would be nice to have the house warm when you arrive home.

  10. Forced air natural gas heating is how I heat my home! A smart thermostat would be awesome to better custom tailor the heating and cooling in our home for cost savings!

  11. just moved into a house yday after years of apartment living and i am solely responsible for utilities but there’s a basement tenant. definitely thinking a smart thermostat is the way to go but am sooo broke that winning one seems the only option. my heater is forced air, not sure what a mini split even is tbh. maybe there’s a/c? lol- help me out best buy

  12. I have a forced air gas furnace. I typically live in basement, but the thermostat is on the main floor. As I age, it would be great to be able to adjust the thermostat without having to climb up and down the long staircase.

  13. Hot water boiler and radiators. Would love a smart thermostat to be able to set an automatically cooler temperature in the winter nights to save money.
