Nest

The Nest Learning Thermostat is designed to be simple and powerful. This thermostat costs less than many other complicated programmable thermostat on the market. It doesn't require you to program it; instead, it automatically learns your usage patterns in under a week. Once it does this, the Nest thermostat creates custom settings designed to save you money.

No work is required on your part. Simply adjust your AC thermostat as you normally would for the first week, and Nest will do the rest of the work.

If you want to have greater control over your HVAC system, you can control the thermostat away from home by using the Nest for iPhone application. As long as your Nest is connected to a Wi-Fi network, you can control your home energy usage away from the house.

Frigidaire

Once you have the thermostat picked out, you have the first half of your Nest and Frigidaire setup. The next step is to look at Frigidaire HVAC systems and choose the best one for your home.

Frigidaire offers a variety of air conditioners, such as window-mounted units, portable Frigidaire air conditioners, and built-in air conditioners. The correct AC for you depends on your home cooling needs. It is a good idea to consult a contractor to get his expert opinion on the best solution for your home.

Although air conditioner prices vary, the contractor should be able to help you find something that will work with your budget.

In order to use a Nest and Frigidaire combination, you will need an AC that works with your digital thermostat. This rules out most portable AC units, as they are typically stand-alone products.

In addition to helping you determine the best AC for your home, a contractor can also install your air conditioner. Trying to install it yourself is not recommended. It can be dangerous, and your warranty may be invalid if the work was not done by a licensed contractor.

Many contractors will give you free air conditioner estimates, so get multiple quotes to find the cheapest price. You can probably get a price reduction by having a single contractor install your Nest and Frigidaire units together. 

Everyone likes to save money. The Nest thermostat can help you by creating a custom home cooling plan and adjusting to your usage. Using Nest and Frigidaire products together is a great way to save money by efficiently cooling your home. Remember to hire a contractor to handle the installation for you.
