This heat is then transferred to the bottom plate, which is pressed against the clothing to remove wrinkles. It is the “thermostat” inside the iron that silently tracks the temperature and can turn the power on and off with the help of other electric components. It is probably the most important component in iron, as it helps to regulate temperature. Thermostats are used not only in irons but also in air conditioners, water coolers, automatic temperature-controlled rooms, and many other devices that require strict temperature regulation. In fact, about half of the electricity demand in the USA comes from thermostatically controlled loads.\n
