During winter, heating your home using a furnace is the conventional way most of our homes have followed. However, at times, the furnace can have a rather blunt if effective heating. When you set the thermostat, the heater starts working thereby bringing the entire home to the desired level of temperature. To some extent, you can fine-tune the process using smart thermostat and other modern pieces of technology, but in most instances, all you are doing is dealing with a one-size-fits-all solution.

Greater Control and Customization

Having heated chairs can help individual members of your family to take a much greater control of their personal comfort. These chairs can be controlled using a smartphone.

An increasing number of people in today’s freelance economy are working from home. In addition, friends and family members who share a home office may have different tastes and preferences when it comes to heating. Because of this, a family that is seated around a living room in the evening may have huge different opinions on the temperature the thermostat should be set to. In the past, this could mean either putting on a sweater or grumbling, but now things are different. Through your own individual seats, you can control the heat output.

Lesser Energy Consumption

The beauty with this system is that the chairs take a lot less energy because obviously heating a small chair compared to a whole room is much easier and cheaper. Also, the person sitting on the chair can set it to exactly the preferred temperature. According to a report issued on the same concept, heated chairs were seen to cut HVAC costs by up to 30%.

Efficiency Gains

In addition to the chairs bringing heat directly to your body system, they can also help you even out electricity demand and enhance the efficiency of the power grid. These chairs are battery-powered and hence they do not affect electricity prices during the day because they are charged at night when the electricity is much cheaper.
In their current status, smart chairs allow you to monitor and control them by using your phone. However, in future, experts see a potential where the chairs can link up with a home HVAC system to enhance the efficiency in the whole of the indoor environment.

While smart chairs are just one of the possible additions to help you bring down your heating and cooling costs therefore save money, there are other HVAC technologies that you may be interested in and which are more appropriate for your home. Contact a licensed HVAC technician to get all this sorted out and be assisted in defining a tailored home comfort level.
