As the warm weather approaches, it's the perfect time to upgrade to a smart thermostat to save energy and keep your home comfortable. These devices offer convenience and insights, giving you more control over your home's temperature.

By connecting to your home's Wi-Fi, a smart thermostat learns your temperature preferences and can automatically adjust the temperature when you come and go. It also provides home-energy-use data that you can track and manage. Plus, you can control the temperature remotely using your smartphone or tablet, making it a great tool for managing your home's energy use.

Enroll in the Entergy Arkansas Smart Direct Load Control Program and receive a smart thermostat with professional installation at no cost to you—a $350 value. Additionally, you can earn a cash incentive of up to $40 each year you participate in the program. It's a smart and easy way to save energy and upgrade your home.

Already have a qualifying smart thermostat? You can still enroll and receive an enrollment incentive of $50.

But don't stop there! Here are some additional energy-saving tips to help you maximize your savings:

  • Reduce your use of large appliances like washers, dryers, and dishwashers during the daytime.
  • Turn off lights when you leave a room to enjoy natural light and save energy.
  • Utilize smart power strips that can automatically sense when devices are inactive and cut their power supply to save energy.
  • Keep your vents clear to help your cooling system work more efficiently.
