Comfort Connected: The Evolution of Home Climate Technology

At this point, the chances are fairly good that you’re familiar with heat pumps. In recent years, the technology that uses electrification to make both heating and cooling your home more efficient and effective has become the climate-control solution of choice for many people looking to smartly upgrade their HVAC systems.

But the efficiency of electrification only tells half the story—when you’re dealing with HVAC systems, the how is equally important to the what. Because despite the big piece of impressive equipment sitting next to your house, your experience is still impacted by the way you interact with and control your system.

Custom Comfort

Trane has been in the climate-control game a long time. A really long time—140 years, if you can believe it.

Over those many years, they’ve gained a lot of insight into how people use their HVAC systems. And what they’ve learned is that every home is different and every user has their own specific needs. With Trane’s newest products, such as the Trane 20 TruComfort™ Variable Speed Heat Pump with WeatherGuard™ and the Trane LINK UX360 Smart Thermostat, they’ve created a system that’s designed to be customized.

Features like seven-day-a-week programming make for a system that runs only when you need it. When you set your system up for your specific schedule, it’ll maintain the temperature you set when you’re home and won’t waste energy when you’re not. Add custom zoning and you have a system that knows exactly where to focus and when. Why pay to keep the bedroom cool during the day when no one’s in it?

What results is a more efficient system that’s not only more environmentally friendly but also cheaper to run day in and day out.
