They can alert you via an app on your phone, so you&#8217;ll know what&#8217;s going on even if you&#8217;re not at home. Some also have a built-in alarm so they can still alert others if there&#8217;s an emergency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"smart-thermostats\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Smart_Thermostats\"><\/span><strong>Smart Thermostats:<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Smart thermostats automate the heating and cooling of your house based on schedules that you set yourself.
