Signs It's Time for a New Thermostat
- 🐾

Unresponsive or blank
The screen goes dark or the system ignores changes, even with fresh batteries.

Hard to use
An older model you've never managed to program the way you want.
- 🐾
New equipment
A new heat pump or AC may need a thermostat that matches it.
Compatibility Comes First
Not every thermostat works with every system. Heat pumps need a thermostat set up to control heat pump operation and backup heat, and wiring varies from home to home; some thermostats need wiring your current one doesn't use. We check your equipment and wiring before we install anything.
Placement Matters
A thermostat in direct sun, near a supply vent, beside a kitchen or on an exterior wall can read the wrong temperature and run the system on bad information. If your current location is part of the problem, we'll tell you.
Installation and Walkthrough
We install the thermostat, test it with your system in every mode it controls, and walk you through the settings and schedule so you're comfortable using it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will any thermostat work with my heat pump?
No. A heat pump needs a thermostat that can control it and its backup heat. We'll check compatibility before installing.
Why doesn't my thermostat's reading match how the room feels?
It may be in a poor location, like direct sun or near a supply vent, or the sensor may be failing. Humidity also changes how a temperature feels.
Can I install a thermostat myself?
Some homeowners do. If you have a heat pump, the wiring isn't clear, or the new thermostat needs wiring the old one didn't use, it's worth having us handle it.
