FAQs
Why should I upgrade my thermostat instead of keeping the old manual model?
Older mercury or mechanical thermostats can only sense room temperature in a narrow range and often allow temperature swings of 3–5 °F. A modern programmable or smart thermostat uses digital sensors, keeps temperatures within ±0.5 °F, and lets you schedule setbacks when you are asleep or away. This precision reduces HVAC run-time, improves comfort, extends equipment life, and can cut annual heating and cooling costs by 10–20 % in a typical Soddy-Daisy home.
What thermostat options do you offer for precise climate control in Soddy-Daisy?
We install conventional 7-day/5-2 programmable thermostats, Wi-Fi-enabled smart thermostats (such as ecobee, Nest, and Honeywell Home), and advanced communicating thermostats designed for variable-speed heat pumps and furnaces. Smart and communicating models learn your schedule, track local weather, and coordinate compressor and fan speeds for room-by-room precision. Several models also integrate with Alexa, Google Assistant, or Apple HomeKit so you can change settings with voice commands or a mobile app.
Will a new thermostat work with my existing heating and air-conditioning system?
In most cases, yes. During a free in-home assessment we confirm the control wiring, voltage, and staging of your current equipment. Most Soddy-Daisy homes use 24-volt HVAC controls, which are compatible with nearly all smart thermostats. If you lack a ‘C’ (common) wire, we can usually add one or install a power-extender kit. For high-efficiency modulating furnaces and inverter heat pumps, we recommend communicating thermostats that unlock all comfort-modulating features.
Can a smart thermostat really save me money on energy bills?
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency estimates properly programmed thermostats save the average household about $180 per year. Smart models go further by using geofencing to detect when the house is empty, automatically adjusting set points, and by optimizing run time based on outdoor temperature and humidity. In the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) service area, customers who enable demand-response features may earn additional bill credits during peak-load events.
Will thermostat upgrades help with humidity and indoor air-quality control?
Yes. Many modern thermostats can control whole-home dehumidifiers, humidifiers, and ventilation systems from the same interface. Paired with a variable-speed air handler, the thermostat can slow the fan to wring out more moisture in our humid Soddy-Daisy summers or add moisture during dry winter heating. Some models display indoor VOC and CO₂ levels and can automatically run ERV/HRV ventilators to improve air quality.
What does a thermostat upgrade cost and are there local incentives?
Installed pricing in Soddy-Daisy starts around $225 for a basic programmable thermostat, $350–$450 for a Wi-Fi smart model, and $600+ for advanced communicating controls. TVA’s EnergyRight program often provides rebates of $50–$100 for ENERGY STAR certified smart thermostats, and certain electric co-ops offer free devices during demand-response promotions. We handle all rebate paperwork and can bundle thermostat upgrades with seasonal HVAC tune-ups to maximize savings.
