A programmable thermostat is recommended by many electric companies. Let's explore the benefits to find out why:

  • No hassle: With a programmable thermostat, you can have different heating/cooling settings kick in automatically for different times of the day and week. Create thermostat settings based entirely on schedule.

  • Eco-friendly: Smart thermostats help you use considerably less electricity overall!

  • Saves money: A smart thermostat is a great tool to maximize energy savings. By switching to a programmable thermostat, many customers save at least 10% on their electric bill! Plus, with smart thermostat regulation, your system isn't overworked, meaning fewer air conditioning repairs and heating repairs in the future.

  • Convenient: Enjoy remote access to your heating and cooling system. Monitor and control your home's temperature right from your phone.

  • Custom settings for room-to-room comfort: Sometimes family members in the same household have different temp preferences. A programmable thermostat allows you to accommodate different temperature settings by offering different climate control zones in a house, which in turn gives you the ability to heat and cool only the rooms you want when you want to.

Whether you're curious about the installation process, compatibility with your existing system, or how these devices can save you money, you'll find the answers you need below.

Do you need a professional electrician to install a smart thermostat?

Professional electricians usually deal with smart thermostat installation since it will be connected to old wiring in the walls. When you call ACTexas, EPA certified HVAC technicians visit your home to install your new thermostat. They’ll access your breaker panel, turn off the furnace, and remove the existing device. They can also safely dispose of your old model. While there, they can help you set up the app on your smart phone.

What are the benefits of installing a smart thermostat?

Smart thermostats offer several benefits for your heating and cooling system. They allow you to save energy by automatically adjusting the temperature based on your schedule, leading to significant energy savings. Additionally, they provide convenience by enabling remote control of your thermostat via your smartphone, helping you avoid high energy bills and ensuring comfort when you arrive home.

While it's possible to install a smart thermostat yourself, it's recommended to have a professional HVAC technician handle the installation. This ensures that the thermostat wires are correctly connected, and that optional trim plates, wall anchors, and other components are properly installed. A professional will also check for a C wire (common wire), which is often necessary for smart thermostats to function correctly.

How do I know if a smart thermostat is compatible with my existing system?

Before purchasing a smart thermostat, use a compatibility checker provided by the thermostat manufacturer. This tool will help you determine if your current HVAC system supports the new device. It's important to check if your system is a high-voltage system or a low-voltage one, and whether it uses a C wire. Compatibility also depends on the type of heating and cooling system you have, such as heat pumps or mini splits.

How do you control the smart thermostat?

Most popular brands of smart thermostats allow you to control the thermostat through an app you can install on a tablet or smartphone, allowing for complete control at your fingertips. For example, Honeywell WiFi Thermostats can be controlled via the Honeywell Total Connect Comfort app, and Ecobee smart thermostats work seamlessly with Apple HomeKit on all iOS devices including the Apple Watch, and leading smart home ecosystems including the Google Assistant.

How does a smart thermostat save me money?

Smart thermostats help you save money by optimizing your energy use. They allow you to set schedules and automatically adjust the temperature based on your preferences and habits, reducing unnecessary heating and cooling. Many users report saving at least 10% on their energy bills after switching to a smart thermostat.

Can a smart thermostat work with multiple heating and cooling zones?

Yes, many smart thermostats support multiple zones, allowing you to create custom temperature settings for different areas of your home. This is particularly useful if you have family members with different temperature preferences or if you want to focus heating and cooling only on occupied rooms, further enhancing your energy savings.

Can smart thermostats work if WiFi goes out? Will the smart thermostat still work?

Internet outage? Never fear! While a WiFi connection is needed to use the full range of features of the new device, a smart thermostat is not entirely reliant on an Internet connection. Without WiFi, the smart thermostat still functions as a traditional thermostat. You can manually control your entire HVAC system by using the wall-mounted unit. However, you won’t be able to use the remote control feature or get live security updates from the mobile app.

Which smart thermostats does ACTexas install?

Currently, the brands nest thermostat we install are Honeywell WiFi Thermostats, Ecobee smart thermostats, and Pro1 smart thermostats.

A new thermostat should be installed by your local air conditioning contractor. To install a smart thermostat, we start by turning off the power to the furnace, accessing the thermostat's backplate on the wall, and uncovering the thermostat wires. We use a screwdriver to loosen the screws and disconnect the wires, then proceed by removing the old thermostat, rewiring the new unit, and affixing the trim plate to the wall.
