Thermostats / Zoning

Thermostats and Zoning

A staggering 68% of homeowners experience discomfort in at least one area of their home due to uneven temperatures. The good news is, this issue is easily fixable by adding zoning to your heating and cooling system, making it an ideal solution for both homes and businesses.

We've been partnering with Honeywell for over 35 years, a brand that has been a leader in the zoning products industry since 1948. All Honeywell zoning products come with a 5-year warranty, ensuring quality and reliability.

Advancements in Wi-Fi technology now allow us to install thermostats in areas of your home that weren't previously wired for them. This gives you unprecedented control over individual zones in your home. Plus, these Wi-Fi-enabled thermostats can be monitored and controlled remotely via computer or mobile device, offering energy savings and peace of mind when you're away from home.

While Honeywell is our primary brand for thermostats and zoning products, we're also equipped to work with other brands. So if you have a preference for a different brand or are considering one, don't hesitate to ask us.

Thermostat Repair, Replacement, and Installation Services

Your thermostat plays a crucial role in regulating and preserving the comfortable environment of your home. Living without modern conveniences like temperature control is something nobody desires or should endure. If your thermostat's cooling setting is turning your home into an icebox or the heating setting feels like the sun's intense heat, it's a clear sign that professional help is needed.

Prepare to transform your thermostat experience with cost-effective services for repair, replacement, and installation offered at Great Northern Heating and Air.

Thermostat Installation & Replacement Services

Repairing your thermostat generally requires minimally invasive techniques and a smaller time frame to get everything operating effectively. Unfortunately like all appliances, thermostats just don't last forever. While replacing an existing thermostat may seem like a simple task, it can be complicated, particularly in older homes where wires are unlabeled or when transitioning from a standard thermostat to a smart thermostat. Thermostat installation and replacement can be more extensive in terms of time and effort, requiring our specialists to utilize advanced equipment to get the job done correctly.

Reasons You May Need a New Thermostat

Increase in Energy Bills

HVAC Unit Keeps Turning Off

An old or shoddy thermostat that’s been repaired before is probably on its last leg and requires professional replacement, especially if you see an increase in your energy bills. (We generally recommend a programmable thermostat that can help reduce bills by giving you more precise control over your HVAC system's use.)

HVAC Unit Keeps Turning Off

How can your home be expected to maintain a suitable temperature if your HVAC unit keeps turning off? The short answer is: it can’t. A new HVAC working at high capacity means that it's time to install a thermostat that can handle the operation effectively.

Faulty Thermostat Readings

HVAC Unit Keeps Turning Off

Outdated and Surpassed Lifespan

When your thermostat settings say one thing, but the temperature in your home doesn’t match that, something is amiss. We can replace a thermostat giving incorrect readings, so you never have to wonder if the temperature settings are correct.

Outdated and Surpassed Lifespan

Doesn’t Respond to Changed Settings

Outdated and Surpassed Lifespan

A thermostat that is more than 10 years old is probably in desperate need of replacing. We can evaluate your heating and cooling equipment to tell you if it’s past its prime.

Doesn’t Respond to Changed Settings

It’s incredibly frustrating when you change the settings on your thermostat, but your heating and cooling system doesn’t respond accordingly. We can take a look and diagnose the issue, which may mean it’s beyond repair. At that point, we’ll make replacement recommendations and help with the installation process.

HVAC System Short Cycles

Doesn’t Respond to Changed Settings

When your HVAC system short cycles, that means it cycles erratically, turning on and off frequently. This could be a sign that something is wrong with your HVAC unit or that it's time for replacing your thermostat. Either way, our technicians will address your concerns and keep you in the loop the entire time.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does a thermostat work?

A thermostat works by sensing the temperature in a given space and regulating the heating or cooling system to maintain a desired temperature set by the user.

How can I program my thermostat for energy efficiency?

Most modern thermostats have programmable features. Set different temperatures for when you're away or asleep to optimize energy usage.

Should I consider upgrading to a smart thermostat?

Smart thermostats offer advanced features, remote control, and learning capabilities. Consider upgrading for increased energy efficiency and convenience.

Why is my thermostat not working?

Have you noticed your thermostat running excessively or adjusting temperature settings without your knowledge? There could be various reasons your thermostat is malfunctioning or not working at all. Some of those concerns include the following:

Power Source Issue - Your home’s electrical system is the primary power source for your smart or Wi-Fi-enabled thermostat. If you’re experiencing problems with your electricity, you’ll likely also notice function issues with your thermostat.

Thermostat is Dirty - Dirt inside your thermostat might not seem like a big deal until your device goes on the fritz. A dirty thermostat can affect the calibration and cause your thermostat to use more energy than usual. As a result, you may see increases in your utility bill.

Loose Wiring or Screws - A thermostat that turns on and off or runs without stopping could have loose wiring or screws. We don’t recommend tightening connections yourself or attempting to wire your own thermostat, as it may cause more damage. Our technicians use state-of-the-art tools to ensure wires and screws are adequately secured.

It’s Just Old - Age plays a significant role in the operation of your thermostat. Most thermostats last around 10 years. If yours is nearing the decade mark, it’s time to contact our comfort specialists for a thorough inspection and potential repair.
