Quick guidance: In Las Vegas, never set your thermostat more than 5–7 degrees above your comfort temperature when you leave. Setting it to 85°F or higher forces the system to work excessively to recover, costing more than a moderate setback would save.

Common Questions About Thermostat Programming in Las Vegas
What temperature should I program when I’m away?
During summer in Las Vegas, set the thermostat 5–7 degrees higher when you’re away (e.g., 82–83°F if your comfort setting is 76°F). Going higher than 85°F forces a long, expensive recovery when you return.
Do programmable thermostats really save money?
Yes. The Department of Energy estimates savings of about 10% per year by adjusting temperatures 7–10 degrees from your normal setting for 8 hours daily. In Las Vegas’s high-usage climate, the savings can be even more noticeable.
Should I use “auto” mode or choose heating/cooling manually?
Auto mode works well in Las Vegas’s shoulder seasons (March–April, October–November) when temperatures fluctuate. During peak summer, setting to “cool only” is more efficient and avoids unnecessary mode switching.
Can you help set up my smart thermostat’s app?
Absolutely. We configure Wi-Fi connectivity, app pairing, geofencing, and learning modes during our visit. We make sure you’re comfortable using every feature before we leave.
What if my thermostat doesn’t have programmable features?
We can recommend and install a programmable or smart thermostat that fits your system and budget. A thermostat upgrade often pays for itself within the first cooling season through energy savings.
