With autumn just around the corner, many of us will be thinking about turning the heating back on, so now is the perfect time to pick up the Google Nest Thermostat E to help make your home more energy-efficient. And right now, it's on sale at Argos.
With the Green Homes Grant launching later this month to help improve the energy efficiency of our homes, smart heating controls such as the Nest Thermostat are great for monitoring energy use, and helping to reduce energy costs.
In general, smart thermostats, like the Nest, allow you to control your heating from your phone, turning it on only when and where you need it, rather than heating a whole house if you don't need to.

How Much Money Could I Save with a Nest Thermostat?
By being able to monitor and easily change the temperature in each room, smart heating controls are effective at reducing energy consumption and therefore keeping our energy bills low.
Nest calculates that the smart controls and ‘away’ settings on its thermostats can help homeowners save:
- 5-6,000kWh (£225-270) per year for a detached home
- 3-5,000kWh per year (£135-225) for a semi-detached home
- 2,500-4,000kWh per year (£112-180) for a terraced home.
