FAQs
Why should I upgrade to an energy-efficient smart thermostat in Harrison?
A modern smart thermostat can reduce heating and cooling costs by 10–20% by automatically learning your schedule, adapting to local weather, and optimizing run times. In Harrison’s mixed-season climate, this means lower utility bills year-round while maintaining consistent indoor comfort.
Will a new thermostat work with my existing HVAC system?
Most energy-efficient thermostats are designed to be compatible with 24-volt gas furnaces, heat pumps, and central air conditioners commonly installed in Harrison homes. During a free assessment, our technician tests the control wiring and verifies that any required C-wire (common wire) or adapter is available before installation.
How long does thermostat installation take and will my HVAC be offline?
A standard smart thermostat replacement takes about 45–60 minutes. Your heating or cooling is briefly turned off while we power down the old thermostat, connect the new wiring, and program initial settings. Downtime is typically less than 20 minutes.
Can I control the thermostat remotely?
Yes. All of our recommended models connect to your home Wi-Fi, allowing you to adjust temperature, create schedules, and receive energy reports from a smartphone app or voice assistant (Alexa, Google Assistant, Siri). This is ideal for second homes and frequent travelers in the Harrison area.
Are there rebates or incentives for installing an energy-efficient thermostat in Harrison?
Con Edison and NYSERDA often offer $50–$100 instant rebates on qualifying ENERGY STAR® smart thermostats. We handle the paperwork and apply any utility or state credits directly at checkout to maximize your savings.
What maintenance is required after installation?
Smart thermostats are virtually maintenance-free. Keep the device’s firmware updated through its app, replace HVAC system filters on schedule, and ensure strong Wi-Fi connectivity. Our Comfort Club members also receive annual system checkups to verify optimal thermostat performance and energy savings.
