How To Use your HVAC system to create the perfect nights sleep

HVAC

Are you concerned about having a good nights sleep? You’re not alone! The great thing about having an HVAC system is that you can use your HVAC to assist you in having a good nights sleep every night!

The temperature of the air can affect your sleep. Setting your thermostat to a cooler temperature—around 65 degrees Fahrenheit—can help you have a better night’s sleep, according to a study published in the Wall Street Journal.** This is especially true if you live in a hot climate or you like to cozy up with a comforter.

The reason for a cooler bedroom? When you sleep, your core body temperature drops to its lower level. If your body temperature is too high, your brain cannot signal your body that it’s time to sleep.

A smart thermostat like the iComfort® S30 can help you maintain an ideal temperature for a perfect night’s sleep. It takes into account your schedule and preferences to help optimize temperatures during the day and while you sleep. You only need to program the thermostat once. After that, it automatically makes adjustments to heating and cooling based on your routine.

Create the perfect environment

Individual sleep preferences can vary widely, but most sleep studies have found that the optimal environment for a relaxed slumber is not only cool, but also dark and quiet. To make your bedroom more conducive to a good night’s sleep, consider the following:

  • Remove or limit your use of devices, such as televisions and cell phones
  • Invest in a supportive mattress or possibly a large bed, if you sleep with a partner
  • Paint walls in soothing shades
  • Add shutters or blinds to windows
