Checking Your Thermostat’s Accuracy

To ensure your thermostat provides the correct temperature readings, compare its display with an accurate thermometer placed in the same room. Wait a few hours to allow both the thermostat and the thermometer to stabilize. If you notice a significant discrepancy – generally more than a couple of degrees – it may indicate that your thermostat is out of calibration. In this case, you can adjust the temperature setting on your thermostat to match the thermometer or consult a professional for recalibration.

Another method to check your thermostat's accuracy involves monitoring your heating or cooling cycles. Set your thermostat to a specific temperature and observe how long it takes for your system to reach that setting. Note whether your home seems to cool down or warm up as expected. If the system runs longer than necessary or doesn't reach the desired temperature at all, it could suggest an issue with your thermostat. Regular checks can help you maintain a comfortable living environment. If you encounter persistent problems, it may be time to consider a professional evaluation from our team at R.S. Andrews.

How to Tell if You Need a New Thermostat

If you’re not sure if your current thermostat is still working for you, several key indicators can help you make an informed decision. Awareness of these signs can save you from discomfort and energy inefficiencies.

Your current thermostat may need to be replaced if you’ve noticed: 

  • Inconsistent temperatures: Rooms in your home feel significantly warmer or cooler than the temperature set on your thermostat.
  • Frequent cycling: Your heating or cooling system turns on and off more often than usual, which can lead to increased energy bills and wear on the system.
  • Your thermostat is old: If your thermostat is over ten years old, it may not be as efficient as newer models that offer better technology and energy savings.
  • Unresponsive controls: The thermostat doesn't respond to temperature adjustments, or the display is blank or malfunctioning.
  • High utility bills: Unexplained increases in your heating or cooling costs might suggest that your thermostat isn't regulating the temperature effectively.

If you observe any of these issues, it may be time to consult with a professional at R.S. Andrews to discuss replacement options that can help bring comfort back to your home.

Finding the Right Thermostat for Your Needs

Choosing the right thermostat for your home can significantly enhance your comfort and energy efficiency. Start by considering the type of heating and cooling system you currently have. If you own a traditional HVAC system, a standard programmable thermostat may suffice. However, if you're investing in a ductless mini-split system or are interested in smart technology, explore options that allow for remote control and customizable settings via your smartphone. These modern thermostats can learn your preferences over time, optimizing temperature settings to save energy when you're away and keep your space comfortable when you're home.

Next, think about the features that best suit your lifestyle. For example, if your schedule varies, a programmable or smart thermostat that adjusts automatically based on your routines can be beneficial. Additionally, look for user-friendly interfaces that are easy to navigate and compatible with any existing home automation systems. Finally, factor in any energy efficiency ratings or potential rebates available for specific models, as these can impact long-term savings. By taking the time to assess your needs and exploring the right options, you can find a thermostat that meets your comfort requirements and contributes to energy conservation.
