Upgrade to a Smart Thermostat
Your thermostat is the control hub of your heating and cooling system, so upgrading to a smart thermostat offers many exciting features. Our team can guide you through the selection process, ensuring that you choose the best thermostat for your home’s specific requirements.
When you upgrade to a smart thermostat, you can enjoy:
- Convenience: Smart thermostats can be adjusted from anywhere with an app on your phone. They’re often compatible with other smart devices, allowing you to control them with voice commands via devices like Alexa or Google Home.
- Energy savings: Most smart thermostats can learn your schedule and adjust the temperature automatically to optimize energy consumption. They also monitor energy usage and can provide reports to help you make adjustments.
- Maintenance alerts: Smart devices can send notifications when it’s time for maintenance, such as filter changes.
Thermostat Troubleshooting & Repairs
A malfunctioning or inaccurate thermostat can cause your HVAC system to run too much and waste energy or run too little and leave you uncomfortable. Common issues include unresponsive controls, inaccurate temperature readings, and frequent cycling of the heating and cooling system. Some of these problems can be resolved with simple DIY fixes. If you suspect that your thermostat isn’t working correctly, try these steps:
- Change the batteries: Dying batteries can cause a thermostat to malfunction. Try changing the batteries and see if that makes a difference.
- Check the circuit breaker: If your thermostat won’t turn on at all, check to see if any circuits have been tripped.
- Check the programming: If your thermostat has any programmable capabilities, it’s possible that someone accidentally altered them or set them incorrectly. Find your model’s user manual and follow the instructions to set the programming.
- Check the wiring: Gently remove the cover from your thermostat and look for loose, damaged, or disconnected wires. Tighten any wires that are loose and reconnect any that are disconnected.
- Clean the unit: Older thermostats have mechanical parts that can become clogged by dirt and debris. Gently clean the unit with small brushes, wipes, and/or compressed air.
If none of those steps resolves the problem, then turn to our team at Colonial. We can determine the issue with your thermostat and fix it quickly.
