When Is the Best Time to Have Your Thermostat Replaced?

Your thermostat plays a crucial role in maintaining the comfort and energy efficiency of your home. But there are circumstances that may prompt you to get a replacement even when your current thermostat is still working just fine. Get a new thermostat when:

• You’re investing in a new HVAC system. It’s generally a good idea to get a new thermostat to go with your new heating and cooling system. The problem with keeping your existing device is that it will most likely be outdated, meaning it may not work as efficiently with your newer HVAC model as it did with the previous one. That’s why – if you want to get the most of your new furnace or air conditioner – make the switch from an old, analogue thermostat to a smart and programmable option.

• You want to save more energy. A switch from manual to smart thermostat can make a great and positive difference to your home’s energy efficiency. With the right settings, in fact, you can cut back on your annual energy bills by up to 15%. And since a thermostat replacement is not particularly costly, you’ll be able to recoup what you spent via the amount of energy you’ve saved. 

• You’re looking for greater convenience. A new thermostat makes indoor temperature control easier and more convenient. Because newer models are digital and programmable, all you need to do is set your temperature settings once, and the thermostat will automatically adjust them for you after. And if you want to alter these same settings, you’ll be able to do so even when you’re away from home. What’s more, newer thermostats are chock-full of great features. Some advanced models will automatically remind you to replace your air filters or provide alerts when something is wrong with your HVAC system.
