FAQs
Why should I upgrade to a smart thermostat instead of keeping my old manual model?
Smart thermostats learn your schedule, adjust temperatures automatically, and give you real-time energy-use data. In McDonald’s four-season climate this can cut heating and cooling costs by 10-20 %, improve indoor comfort, and let you control your HVAC system from anywhere via a phone app or voice assistant.
Will a new thermostat be compatible with my current furnace and air conditioner?
In most cases, yes. Our technicians begin every upgrade with a compatibility check of your HVAC equipment, wiring, and voltage requirements. We carry smart and programmable thermostats that work with single-stage, multi-stage, heat-pump, and dual-fuel systems common in McDonald homes. If minor wiring changes or a C-wire adapter are needed, we handle that during installation.
How much money can I expect to save after the upgrade?
Savings vary by usage habits and system efficiency, but the U.S. Department of Energy reports average annual savings of about $180 with a properly configured smart thermostat. Customers in McDonald typically see payback in 12–24 months thanks to reduced run times, automatic setback scheduling, and energy-use alerts.
What is included in your professional thermostat installation service?
Our state-of-the-art solutions package covers: (1) pre-installation inspection and compatibility testing, (2) removal of the old thermostat, (3) wiring or C-wire adapter installation, (4) mounting and level calibration, (5) Wi-Fi setup, app pairing, and user training, and (6) a full operational test of your HVAC system. The visit usually takes 60–90 minutes.
Do smart thermostats work during power or internet outages?
Yes. All smart thermostats we install store the last programmed settings locally, so your HVAC system continues to heat or cool based on the last schedule if Wi-Fi or power drops. Once service is restored, the thermostat automatically reconnects and resumes smart functions and remote access.
Are there rebates, warranties, or financing options for McDonald residents?
Absolutely. Many smart thermostats qualify for utility rebates of $50–$100 through local programs such as Duquesne Light’s energy-efficiency incentives. We register your product for the manufacturer’s 3–5-year warranty and offer optional extended coverage. Interest-free financing for up to 12 months is available on installations over $300, making the upgrade even more affordable.
