Common Questions
Which smart thermostat do you recommend?
It depends on your system and what you want — Ecobee for room sensors, Nest for simplicity, Honeywell or Sensi for budget. I'll match it to your equipment honestly.
Do I need a C-wire?
Most smart thermostats need one. If you don't have one, I can usually add it or install a power adapter.
Can a bad thermostat damage my HVAC system?
Yes — short cycling caused by a failing thermostat shortens compressor and motor life significantly.
