Smart Thermostat Installation Services
Today’s advanced thermostats make your HVAC system more energy efficient and work with leading smart home brands. They can adjust comfort while keeping your monthly bills in check and prolonging the lifespan of your HVAC system. A Lennox S40 thermostat, for example, enables geofencing, integration with Amazon and Google voice assistants, and WiFi connectivity.
Many current thermostat models seamlessly connect your HVAC system to smart home automation networks. Beyond providing control through your smartphone, they monitor the system and can send alerts when they detect technical issues. The S40 “Smart Away” feature automatically adjusts the temperature when you’re not home. Another convenient feature is “Schedule IQ,” which learns regional climate conditions along with household and business schedules.
Our smart thermostat services include:
- Installation
- Smart home network integration
- Programming
- Calibration and troubleshooting
The proper installation of smart thermostats goes beyond removing old ones and mounting new ones. Most modern HVAC systems use a low-voltage wiring array. The C-wire (common wire) provides a continuous 24V power supply that enables modern features, like WiFi connectivity and touchscreen displays. Older systems without C-wires need special adapters to solve compatibility issues, using existing wires to create a modern connection. We can inspect your setup and determine the best way to connect the device.
Beyond the wiring array, a proper connection of the device to your home’s network is crucial. The thermostat should connect to the WiFi network so you can control it remotely from a smartphone, tablet, or computer. After network integration, the device must go through initial programming. This typically involves entering information about your home, such as its size and insulation, as well as heating and cooling preferences, allowing you to enjoy the full benefits of programmable thermostats. The initial programming process may include calibration to help the thermostat learn and create efficient HVAC scheduling.
After we get your new thermostat up and running, it may require occasional service. Recalibration is a common service call, which is relatively easy to fix. Short cycling may happen because of incorrect placement; for example, in direct sunlight, which would require moving it.
