Heating and air conditioning systems have come a long way since they were introduced more than a century ago. If you’re interested in the latest innovations to keep your Jefferson, Louisiana, home more comfortable, take a look at what’s changed recently. Some of these HVAC innovations are available now, giving you access to eco-friendly and more efficient solutions.

Home Automation

With the increased popularity of smart devices, it’s no surprise that people want to connect the systems in their homes as well. Home automation plays a major role in the innovation of HVAC, especially since you can now control your thermostat from anywhere, anytime. As long as you have a Wi-Fi connection, you can open an app and change the temperature, whether you’re cozy on the couch and don’t want to move or you’re miles away on vacation. Home automation can also help you save energy by making automatic adjustments to reduce waste.

Variable Speed Motors

Older HVAC systems only had single-speed motors. These units had to cycle on and off in order to produce and move air throughout the space. However, the introduction of variable-speed motors in HVAC units has revolutionized the way a system can heat and cool a home. With multiple speeds available, your system can operate at a lower level without sacrificing home comfort. As a result, you can enjoy lower bills each month.

Movement-Activated HVAC

Engineers at MIT have created a unique design for an air conditioning system that operates based on movement in a space. It uses sensors that are mounted on the ceilings of a structure to determine when people are present and produces cool air when needed. With this unique addition to an air conditioning system, you wouldn’t have to worry about switching to vacation mode when you’re gone or even setting a strict weekly schedule.
