Common Thermostat Problems<\/h3>\n

Here are some of the more common problems that can develop with household thermostats:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Adverse effects of dust and dirt<\/strong> \u2013 the instrumentation in your thermostat is very sensitive. If it becomes coated with dust and dirt, it may not be able to work properly. This can result in anything from short-cycling to total shutdown. Your AC technician will know how to properly clean your thermostat so that it works as it should.<\/li>\n
  • Improper calibration of the heat anticipator<\/strong> \u2013 the heat anticipator tells your thermostat how long the cooling cycle needs to stay on. If it isn\u2019t calibrated properly, your system may short-cycle or continuously stay on.<\/li>\n
  • Issues with the wiring<\/strong> \u2013 the wiring of your thermostat can fray and\/or corrode over time. This can make the electrical connection poor, which will result in poor or no communication between the thermostat and your system.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    The good news is that with the help of a trained professional, thermostat repair is relatively fast. If you suspect your thermostat in St. Augustine, FL, may be on the blink, give us a call today and schedule a repair appointment.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
