How you installed your thermostat may be costing you money. Here's the right way to do it
Briefly

The placement of your thermostat can greatly influence the comfort level in your home and impact energy bills. Incorrect positioning, such as near windows or heat-generating appliances, can lead to inaccurate temperature readings, causing HVAC systems to operate less efficiently. This can result in overcooling or overheating a space, increasing energy costs and compromising comfort. To avoid these issues, it's crucial to install your thermostat in a location that accurately reflects the overall temperature of your home.
One of the biggest mistakes is placing your thermostat in direct sunlight. It will think the room is much hotter than it actually is.
Placing a thermostat too close to heat-producing appliances is a recipe for inefficiency. This can lead to overworking your AC or heating systems.
