L'usage des thermostats dans les systèmes de conditionnement d'air domestique aux Etats-Unis (en anglais)
Aux États-Unis, seulement 12% des 118 millions de foyers américains ont une unité centrale de climatisation contrôlée par un thermostat programmé.
Based on information collected through US Energy Information Administration (EIA) for 2015, only 12% of US 118 million households had a central air-conditioning unit that is actually controlled using a programmed thermostat. About one in three households using central air conditioning do not have a programmable thermostat. But even for those households that use central air conditioning and have a programmable thermostat, more than two-thirds of those households control temperatures without actually programming the thermostat.
