Manual thermostats
These are basic controls that can turn your air conditioning and heating on or off as needed. They allow you to select a single temperature and then warm or cool your home to that temperature.
Programmable thermostats
These models make it easier to adjust your home’s temperature to fit your lifestyle. For example, in the summer, you can set the thermostat to allow the temperature to increase during the day when nobody’s home, and then cool the house down shortly before you return from work. There are many kinds of programmable thermostats, and we can help you choose the one that best meets your needs.
Smart thermostats
Smart thermostats represent the newest thermostat technology. They give you a greater degree of comfort over your home, allowing you to make adjustments by day, time, and room … and even work with your mobile phone, so you can make adjustments when you’re away. They can also reduce the amount of energy you use, saving you money.
Which is the best thermostat for you? That depends on your home and lifestyle, and that’s where MB Plumbing, Heating, and Air Conditioning can help. We’ll discuss your needs and recommend the best choice for you. We also know which models may be eligible for rebates and other incentives from your energy providers, so you may save even more!
Is It Time To Replace Your Thermostat?
Thermostats play an important role in your home’s comfort, but most people don’t think about them until they stop working. If your home’s thermostat breaks, you know it needs to be replaced, but there are good reasons to consider replacing your current thermostat with a newer model, even if it’s still working:
Limited function
Older thermostats simply read the temperature and switch your heat or cooling on as needed. Today’s newer thermostats do so much more, from allowing you to tailor your home’s comfort to your lifestyle, to letting you make adjustments and receive information through your phone
Mechanically worn-out
Traditional thermostats are completely mechanical, and as they age, their components begin to wear out. As a result, they become less precise, so they may not regulate your home’s temperature as well. Pests such as rodents can damage thermostat wiring.
Poorly located
The original installer of your thermostat may have placed it in a bad location, such as in a drafty part of your home or where direct sunlight shines on it, causing false readings.
Just plain dirty
The air flowing through your home’s thermostat contains dust and other contaminants, and over time, they can accumulate inside the thermostat and possibly even affect its performance.
If you’re replacing part of your home’s heating and cooling system, it’s usually a good idea to replace your thermostat at the same time. But even if you’re not replacing other components, a new thermostat may improve your home’s comfort and energy efficiency.
