The Best HVAC Thermostat Settings for Spring Energy Savings

​As temperatures start to warm up in Blairsville, GA, spring is the perfect time to adjust your thermostat settings for better comfort and energy savings. Making a few simple changes now can help you reduce your utility bills and ease your system into the hotter summer months.

Recommended Spring Thermostat Settings

1. Daytime (Home): 72–74°F
Keep your thermostat set between 72–74°F while you're home during the day. This range balances comfort with energy efficiency.

2. Nighttime: 66–68°F
Lower your thermostat at night to save on energy. Cooler temperatures are also better for sleep.

3. Away from Home: 76–78°F
Set your thermostat higher when you’re not home to reduce system use and energy consumption.

Smart Thermostat Advantages
Smart thermostats like Nest and Ecobee allow you to schedule temperature changes, learn your preferences, and make adjustments automatically—all of which contribute to long-term savings.

Bonus Tip: Use the “Auto” Setting
Set your system’s fan to “Auto” instead of “On” to avoid running it continuously. This saves energy and reduces wear on your HVAC system.
