Thermostat Installation & Repair in Lethbridge, AB

Signs of a problem

A blank screen, temperatures that don't match the room, a system that won't start or won't stop, or short cycling. Replace the batteries first if it uses them.

Smart thermostats

Smart models learn your schedule and can be adjusted from a phone. Many need a common (C) wire for power; a technician can add one if your wiring lacks it.

Heat pumps need the right model

Heat pump systems need a thermostat that supports them, including backup heat control. A wrong match can make the system run backup heat more than it should.

Chinook days

When a chinook brings a sudden warm spell, a smart thermostat can save energy by easing back on heating. Make sure it isn't switching between heating and cooling too readily; most let you set a gap between the two.

Location

Thermostats on outside walls, in sunlight or near drafty doors read the wrong temperature. Moving one can fix rooms that always feel too hot or too cold.

Get help

Tell the technician what system you have and what the thermostat is doing. Send a request and an HVAC technician will get in touch.

Settings that save

Lowering the heat a few degrees overnight and while you're out is an easy saving. With a heat pump, avoid large setbacks, which can trigger backup heat when the temperature is raised again; the technician can suggest settings that suit your system.

Batteries and Wi-Fi

Replace batteries yearly, and after a Wi-Fi change, reconnect a smart thermostat so its schedule and remote control keep working.
