FAQs

What are the benefits of upgrading my thermostat?

Upgrading your thermostat can significantly enhance your home's energy efficiency and comfort levels. Newer models offer precise scheduling, improved temperature control, and remote access via smartphone apps, enabling you to adjust settings even when you're away. Many smart thermostats also provide real-time energy consumption data, which can help you lower utility bills by optimizing heating and cooling cycles.

How do I know if my existing HVAC system is compatible with a new thermostat?

Before installing a new thermostat, it’s essential to verify system compatibility. Most modern thermostats are designed to work with both traditional and advanced HVAC systems, but variations in wiring or voltage requirements might affect compatibility. We recommend scheduling a consultation in Old Fort so one of our expert technicians can evaluate your current system and determine the best thermostat upgrade option for your setup.

What features do smart thermostats provide?

Smart thermostats come with a range of features that enhance convenience and energy efficiency. They typically offer remote control via mobile apps, adaptive learning that adjusts temperature settings based on your daily routines, and integration with voice assistants. Additional features often include energy usage reports, scheduling options, and alerts for maintenance or system issues, all designed to optimize your comfort while reducing costs.

How long does a thermostat upgrade installation take?

The installation process for a thermostat upgrade typically takes between 1 to 2 hours. During the appointment, our technicians in Old Fort will carefully assess your system, update any wiring if necessary, and ensure that your new thermostat is fully integrated and calibrated. The exact time may vary based on the complexity of your HVAC system.

Can upgrading my thermostat really reduce my energy bills?

Yes, upgrading to a modern thermostat can help lower your energy bills. By offering precise temperature control and the ability to program schedules based on your daily routines, newer thermostats reduce unnecessary heating and cooling when you're not home. Smart features like remote access and energy reports also empower you to monitor usage and make adjustments, leading to more efficient energy consumption.

Is there any maintenance required for a new thermostat?

Generally, modern thermostats require minimal maintenance. It is a good practice to keep the unit clean and ensure it remains connected to the Wi-Fi network to receive firmware updates and maintain optimal performance. Periodically checking that the thermostat’s sensors are unobstructed and functioning correctly is advisable. If you encounter any issues, contacting a local HVAC professional in Old Fort is recommended.

My nest Stat went out and I tried to fix it myself but couldn’t figure it out. Called HEP and they gave me a time frame of 1:00pm-6:00pm same day. They called me back at 5:00pm to let me know it would be around 7:00pm. I was 2 days with no A/C so waiting an extra hour wasn’t really an issue for me. Steve showed up and gave me a solution to my problem within 20 minutes, but he also temporarily fixed my unit Until I could get a new thermostat unit because the stat I had was faulty. He also walked me through some basic maintenance I could perform to help my HVAC run smoothly. Steve was Professional, honest and friendly! Finding that trio is almost impossible this day and age. All in all Steve is the Bob Ross of professionalism and deserves recognition for his craft. Thank you!

Travis and Cody arrived on time with my new HVAC and quickly disassembled the old and removed it. They poured the new pad, set the new system, checked the ductwork, installed a new thermostat and were finished in 5 hours! They were great! I highly recommend this company. They show up! And they do what they say they are going to do. THANK YOU HEP!

The guys from HEP did a great job installing my Carrier HVAC unit. They took their time and made sure everything was done right. They asked me several times if I thought everything looked good throughout the install. There will be a inspection technician that will come out to do a follow-up to make sure the job was done properly, check the unit, and make sure the thermostat is working correctly. Everyone that I talked to from HEP was friendly and helpful. I would highly recommend using this company. Thank you for your service! Jody Technician came out the next day and checked the unit and all the work performed. All employees seem to care about the customers.

Josh Crawford came by today for a spring inspection of our HVAC unit, and to help with some smart thermostat issues. He did a great and thorough job, and was very personable. He suggested we add a surge protector to our unit to protect our compressor, and made an excellent case for that without being pushy or applying undue sales pressure.

Tim M.

I would recommend Patrick McGraw our thermostat went out, and he was very professional and nice on how he could help resolve our issues. Brand new thermostat with install under $250 I would recommend HEP and Patrick he understand family!

Brad M.

Patrick McGraw replaced the upstairs thermostat and the capacitor for the exterior unit. He explained what he needed to before proceeding and worked constantly to complete the work. We would welcome him back for a service call whenever needed.

John Smith was great. He arrived in time and did a though explanation of resting my new unit for the source of the problem. Then explained the thermostat replacement. Courteous and knowledgable.

Replaced existing heat pump with a packaged Carrier. Cools very well and quiet. Price was competitive and included new digital thermostat, clean and sealed connection to house, concrete pad and 2 year free check ups. Install was completed as scheduled within 3 days of accepting their quote. Installers did great job. HEP was very responsive thru whole process. So far, no complaints.
