How to Choose the Right Thermostat for a Commercial Space

If you own or manage a commercial space, you probably have a lot invested in your HVAC system. Your thermostat enables you to control your system, making it one of its most important components. In a commercial setting, you likely need to think about employee comfort, keeping equipment functional and maybe even product shelf life. This is why it pays to do your homework when choosing the right thermostat. In today’s post, professional HVAC maintenance company, Dittmer Air Conditioning & Heating, shares a few tips on how to find the one that will suit your needs. 

Multiple zones. Some businesses require one temperature for one area and another for a different one. If this is the case for you, you may want to consider investing in multiple thermostats with a zone control system. Having these features can help you save a significant amount on your electric bills.

Remote operation. Depending on the nature of your business, it might also be a good idea to invest in a smart thermostat that you or your employees can control remotely with an app. HVAC repair and installation companies will usually recommend a smart thermostat if you need to adjust the temperature at night or over the weekend.

Advanced features. If you have a small retail or office space, then you can probably make do with a basic thermostat with standard features. However, if you own a business like a restaurant, for example, you may need to lower the temperature during the lunch or dinner rush, so it’s a good idea to invest in a unit with more sophisticated features so you can better manage the temperature.
