FAQs
Why should I upgrade to a smart or programmable thermostat in Maynardville’s climate?
Maynardville experiences humid summers and cool, damp winters, which means your HVAC system runs most of the year. A modern thermostat lets you schedule temperature set-backs, automatically adjust for outdoor conditions, and learn your comfort habits. According to the U.S. DOE, homeowners save 8-15 % on heating and cooling costs with proper programming; in our local climate that can be $120–$250 a year. You also gain features such as filter-change reminders, energy-use reports, and remote monitoring that help extend equipment life.
Is my existing HVAC system compatible with the thermostats you install?
Almost every central air conditioner, heat pump, gas furnace, and dual-fuel system found in Maynardville can be paired with today’s smart or advanced programmable thermostats. During our free on-site evaluation we check voltage (24 V or high-voltage), stage count (single-stage, two-stage, variable-speed), auxiliary heat strips, and whether you have a common (C) wire. If your system lacks a C-wire, we can usually add one or provide a power extender kit so you can still enjoy a full-featured thermostat.
How long does thermostat installation and professional tuning take?
A straightforward swap on a system that already has a C-wire takes 45-60 minutes. If we need to run new control wiring or configure multi-stage equipment, the visit can last 1.5–2 hours. After physical installation we walk you through Wi-Fi setup, custom scheduling, humidity control (if supported), and integration with voice assistants such as Alexa or Google Home. Before we leave, we test both heating and cooling cycles to be sure everything is communicating properly.
Will a new thermostat really cut my utility bills, and by how much?
Yes. TVA and Energy Star studies show that precise scheduling, adaptive learning, and geofencing can lower HVAC run-time by 10-20 %. In Union County, where the average combined electric bill is about $150/month, that equates to $180–$360 in annual savings. Savings are highest when you use set-backs of 7–10 °F while you’re away or sleeping and enable adaptive recovery so the house is comfortable when you return.
Can I control my heating and air system remotely, and what devices are supported?
All the thermostats we offer—Ecobee, Nest, Honeywell Home, and Emerson Sensi—have free Android and iOS apps that let you adjust temperature, humidity, fan mode, and vacation settings from anywhere with an internet connection. They also support web dashboards for laptop access and integrate with smart speakers (Amazon Echo, Google Nest Hub, Apple HomePod) so you can change settings with voice commands.
Do you offer rebates, warranties, or financing for thermostat upgrades in Maynardville?
Yes. Many of our models qualify for TVA EnergyRight rebates of $50–$75 when installed by a Quality Contractor Network member—our license number is on file. All thermostats come with a 3- to 5-year manufacturer’s warranty, and we provide a one-year labor guarantee. If you’re bundling a thermostat upgrade with a larger HVAC repair or replacement, we have 0 % interest financing for up to 18 months through Synchrony. Our office staff will handle all rebate paperwork so you receive your incentive check promptly.
