FAQs
Why should I consider a thermostat upgrade for my Mulberry home?
Upgrading to a modern smart or programmable thermostat gives you precise temperature control, scheduling options, remote access from your phone, and automatic energy-saving features tailored to Mulberry’s hot summers and mild winters. Studies show homeowners can save 10–20 % on cooling and heating costs, which quickly offsets the upfront investment.
Will a new thermostat work with my existing HVAC system?
Nearly all newer thermostats are designed to be compatible with conventional gas/electric systems, heat pumps, and even multi-stage units. During our free in-home assessment, we check wiring, voltage requirements, and system type to recommend models that integrate seamlessly with your current equipment—no costly system overhaul needed.
How long does professional installation take and what’s involved?
A standard thermostat replacement usually takes 45-90 minutes. Our certified technicians remove the old unit, label and connect wiring, secure the new thermostat, update firmware, and verify operation with your heating and cooling equipment. We also program initial schedules and guide you through the mobile app before leaving your Mulberry residence.
Can a smart thermostat really lower my energy bills in Mulberry’s climate?
Yes. Smart thermostats use occupancy sensors, geofencing, and local weather data to adjust temperatures automatically. In Mulberry, that means reducing run-time during humid but moderate spring/fall days and optimizing staging during peak summer heat. Utility reports show average annual savings of $120–$180 for Polk County homes.
Do thermostat upgrades qualify for rebates or tax incentives?
Many energy-efficient models are ENERGY STAR® certified, making them eligible for rebates from Duke Energy and TECO Peoples Gas, as well as potential federal tax credits under the Inflation Reduction Act. We handle all paperwork and provide itemized receipts so you can claim incentives effortlessly.
What ongoing support do you provide after installation?
Our Innovative Systems Heating & Air Conditioning team offers a 2-year labor warranty on thermostat installations, manufacturer warranty registration, and 24/7 phone support. We can also monitor system performance remotely (with your permission) and push software updates to keep your thermostat secure and performing at its best.
