FAQs
Why should I consider upgrading my thermostat in Halls?
Older manual thermostats can be off by several degrees, making your HVAC system run longer than necessary. A modern programmable or smart thermostat delivers precise temperature control, allows for automated scheduling, and adapts to Halls’ variable climate, reducing wear on your heating and cooling equipment while lowering monthly utility costs.
What types of modern thermostats are available for my HVAC system?
Three main categories exist: (1) 7-day programmable thermostats, which let you set a different schedule for every day of the week; (2) Wi-Fi–enabled smart thermostats, which learn your habits and adjust automatically; and (3) communicating thermostats designed to work with high-efficiency, variable-speed HVAC systems for real-time performance optimization. Our technicians can explain the pros and cons of each for your specific needs.
Will a smart thermostat work with my existing HVAC equipment?
In most Halls homes, yes. Smart thermostats such as Nest, Ecobee, and Honeywell Home are compatible with the majority of single-stage, multi-stage, and heat-pump systems. During a free assessment we verify voltage (24 V vs. line-voltage), check for a C-wire to provide constant power, and confirm any special requirements for dual-fuel or humidity-control systems before recommending a unit.
How much can I save on energy bills after a thermostat upgrade?
The U.S. Department of Energy estimates savings of 8–15 % on heating and cooling costs when homeowners install a properly programmed thermostat. In Halls that can translate to $120–$250 per year, depending on house size, insulation levels, and utility rates. Smart models often deliver even higher savings by using occupancy sensors and weather data to reduce run time.
What is involved in professional thermostat installation, and how long does it take?
Our certified HVAC technicians arrive with the thermostat of your choice, shut off system power, label and disconnect existing wires, mount the new base plate, connect wiring to the correct terminals, and test both heating and cooling modes. We also program initial schedules and set up the Wi-Fi app on your phone. Most installations take 45–90 minutes and come with a one-year labor warranty.
Can I control my HVAC system remotely after upgrading the thermostat?
Yes. Wi-Fi and Bluetooth-enabled thermostats let you change temperature, view indoor humidity, receive maintenance alerts, and track energy use from any smartphone, tablet, or voice assistant (Alexa, Google, Siri). This remote access is especially useful for Halls residents who travel or own rental properties, allowing you to avoid frozen pipes in winter and high humidity in summer even when you are away.
