For over 48 years we are knowledgeable in all thermostat and humidistat makes and models. From digital programmable thermostats to energy smart thermostats, our certified technicians are your reliable choice when it comes to determining the right equipment to regulate the temperature of your home. They will identify if your home is fitted with 1 stage, 2 stage, or Zone heating and cooling to determine which thermostat will be compatible.
Programmable & Non Programmable Thermostats:
According to the U.S. Department of Energy, programmable thermostats are the most sensible and in the long run and most economical for your home. You can save as much as 10% a year on heating and cooling by simply turning your thermostat back 7-10 degrees Fahrenheit for 8 hours a day from its normal setting. (if you have a heat pump, don't do this without a programmable thermostat). These thermostats can store multiple daily settings that you can manually override without affecting the rest of the daily or weekend program.
The non programmable round thermostat is still in use more than a century. These thermostats are not digital and do not require computers to operate.
Smart/Wifi Thermostats:
These thermostats improve energy efficiency and allow you to control the temperature from your computer, tablet or smartphone.
Nest Thermostats:
A Nest thermostat is a connected thermostat with an Android app that lets you remotely control the temperature. However, the Nest thermostat is not compatible with some HVAC equipment. Be sure to ask our technicians before installing one in your home.
