FAQs
How can a thermostat upgrade reduce my utility bills in Englewood?
Modern programmable and smart thermostats learn your comfort preferences and automatically adjust heating and cooling schedules. By reducing run-time when you’re asleep or away, they can lower HVAC energy use by 10–20 %. In Englewood’s variable climate—hot summers and chilly winters—these automated setbacks and optimized recovery timings prevent your system from working harder than needed, directly cutting monthly gas and electric costs.
What types of thermostats do you install?
We offer three main categories: (1) 7-day programmable thermostats for precise scheduling; (2) Wi-Fi–enabled smart thermostats such as Nest, Ecobee, and Honeywell Home that feature learning algorithms, occupancy sensors, and app control; and (3) communicating thermostats designed for high-efficiency variable-speed HVAC systems. During a free consultation we recommend the model that best matches your equipment, budget, and lifestyle.
Will a new thermostat work with my existing furnace and air conditioner?
In most cases, yes. Nearly all conventional single-stage, two-stage, and heat-pump systems in Englewood are compatible with today’s programmable and smart thermostats. We verify control voltage (24 V vs. millivolt), check for a C-wire to power Wi-Fi models, and confirm any advanced features (dual-fuel, humidifier control, zoning). If upgrades like adding a C-wire or interface module are needed, we handle them during installation.
Are there rebates or incentives available for thermostat upgrades in Englewood?
Yes. Xcel Energy frequently offers instant or mail-in rebates—typically $50–$100—for qualifying ENERGY STAR® smart thermostats. Colorado also provides occasional state efficiency incentives, and some manufacturers run seasonal promotions. We help you complete rebate paperwork, register the product for extended warranties, and apply any discounts directly to your invoice whenever possible.
How long does professional installation take, and will I need to rewire my walls?
A standard replacement takes about 45–90 minutes, including removal of the old thermostat, mounting and levelling the new base, verifying wiring, updating firmware, and configuring schedules. Most jobs use existing low-voltage thermostat wire; only Wi-Fi models without an existing C-wire may require pulling an extra conductor or installing a power extender kit. We protect walls and clean up after ourselves, so disruption is minimal.
Can I control my new thermostat remotely and integrate it with other smart-home devices?
Absolutely. All smart thermostats we install come with iOS and Android apps for real-time temperature control, scheduling, and energy-use reports. They also integrate with Amazon Alexa, Google Home, Apple HomeKit, IFTTT, and many home-security platforms. This lets you create automations—for example, lowering the heat when your security system is armed or resuming comfort settings when your geo-fenced phone returns home.
