About Thermostats
Today, there are a number of different options when it comes to thermostats, but their purpose remains the same: to maintain a comfortable temperature in your home. These helpful devices are mounted on your wall and allow you to choose which temperature you prefer. Whether you select a manual, programmable, or smart thermostat, it works with your home’s HVAC system to provide cool air, warm air, or radiant heat at just the right time. All of these devices include a dial, buttons, or touch-screen display, which allow you to control the temperature to your liking.

- Rooms with operable fireplaces
By pinpointing the right place for your thermostat, our technicians help ensure that your thermostat keeps your home at the proper temperature while also saving energy.
Which Thermostat Is Right For Your Needs?
Different types of thermostats suit different situations and customer preferences. A Cooper Mechanical technician can help you find the ideal thermostat for your home and review its features to ensure a seamless transition from an old model to a newer one. Common types are:
Manual (Analog) Thermostat
Manual thermostats using analog technology are basic “old-school” styles which only allow the user to set one temperature for the equipment; it stays at that temperature until you reset it. This is perfect for people whose low tolerance for “high-tech” equipment is the most important attribute.
The next 2 types of thermostats are created using digital technology which gives a more accurate reading. This includes:
Programmable (Digital) Thermostat
Programmable options allow for more custom control. You can easily set your desired temperature, allowing you to program multiple changes to the temperature on a weekly, daily, or even hourly basis. This is ideal for people who prefer to modify the setting according to their schedule or activity, such as when they’re at work or sleeping. This ensures that their home is comfortable while they’re at home but they don’t waste energy while they’re away or asleep.
Smart (Digital) Thermostat
Smart thermostats are the most popular and are even more convenient. These models connect to your smartphone, tablet, and other mobile device, allowing you to make adjustments to your home’s temperature from virtually anywhere. With the tap of a finger, you can turn the heat up or AC down before heading home to ensure it’s comfortable upon arrival. In addition, many models alert you when it’s time to change the air filter or warn you when the equipment isn’t operating correctly, giving you the opportunity to fix the issue before it turns into a bigger problem.
