On HVAC Services
The thermostat is an integral aspect of any HVAC system. A malfunctioning thermostat can drive up your costs and undermine your comfort.
If you’re experiencing problems with your unit, schedule Air Nerds for thermostat repair in Mineral, VA. If your current unit is beyond repair or simply outdated, you can opt for thermostat replacement instead.
Most energy-efficient thermostats have a lifespan of about 10 years. If you maintain them regularly and replace them proactively, you’ll avoid most repair issues.
One of the most common problems is a blank screen. It could indicate a dead thermostat, but it’s usually a power-related fault. If the thermostat runs on battery only, you need to replace the battery. If it’s hardwired to the HVAC system, it indicates a problem with that equipment.
If the system doesn’t turn off and on when prompted, there’s likely bad wiring. If the temperature doesn’t seem right, you should check it against another temperature sensor. A two-degree or higher discrepancy probably means something is wrong.
It could be as simple as dirty contacts or as serious as a failing thermistor. Other unit problems to watch for include being hot to the touch, having an unresponsive display, and forgetting its settings.
There are many compelling options for homeowners who need a thermostat replacement. We generally recommend a programmable thermostat. It can reduce your annual heating and cooling costs through automatic temperature adjustment.
Smart thermostats are programmable thermostats that have Wi-Fi for remote access and control. Many smart thermostats have additional features that help you save even more money.
Basic scheduling is a powerful tool, but not suitable for all households. You may, for instance, have a work schedule that’s constantly changing. In that case, consider a geofencing thermostat instead. These thermostats monitor a virtual periphery around the home.
Your thermostat will also monitor your location, such as through GPS on your phone. That will let it know when you’re home and when you’re not. It can then adjust the temperature accordingly and save you money whenever you’re away.
