Dallas Thermostat Replacement Service

Whether you have central heating and air conditioning services in your Dallas, TX home or you have another type of equipment such as a boiler, heat pump or mini-split air conditioner, you need to know that it's working perfectly and will respond perfectly to the commands you input on your thermostat. When that doesn't happen, it can be annoying, aggravating and downright stressful—after all, no one wants to be forced to cope with a malfunctioning HVAC system during a summer heat wave or a winter cold snap.

Your thermostat is the device that controls your HVAC system by reading the temperature in your house and then sending signals to turn equipment on or off as needed in order to keep your indoor spaces at the temperature you have set on your thermostat. If the thermostat itself malfunctions, it can cause all sorts of problems and make it seem like the entire system is going haywire. As stress-inducing as that may be, a Dallas thermostat replacement is typically all it takes to get everything functioning normally again and restore your indoor comfort levels.

But how do you know if your thermostat is what's causing all the trouble? We'll explain the signs that your house needs a new thermostat installed by a qualified Dallas HVAC service professional, and tell you how to do some basic troubleshooting to narrow down the cause of the issue. When you need Dallas thermostat replacement service, rely on the team of service professionals at Aire Serv of Dallas. We have the tools, equipment and skill to get your HVAC system restored to fully functioning condition.

  • You may not be excited to discover that you need Dallas thermostat replacement service, but of all the things that could go wrong with your HVAC system, a broken thermostat unit is one of the better scenarios. That's because the average cost of a replacement thermostat is usually pretty low, and it doesn't take long for an experienced professional to get your old, broken one removed and put in a new installation. Compared to more serious, complicated problems like a malfunctioning condenser unit or natural gas leak, thermostat replacement in Dallas, TX is a relatively simple, inexpensive cooling and heating service.

    If you're aware of the symptoms of a malfunctioning thermostat, you can get the replacement services you need and get back to enjoying the comfort of your home without worrying about what your cooling and heating units are going to do next. Here are some of the top warning signs that indicate you need Dallas thermostat replacement right away.

  • As we mentioned above, it's normal for your heater and AC unit to turn on and off as needed to raise, lower or maintain your indoor temperature. But if you notice it's turning on and off quite frequently for short bursts, that's a problem. It's called rapid cycling, and it increases energy usage while also accelerating wear and tear damage. There's a number of reasons why rapid cycling can happen, but the most common cause is a malfunctioning thermostat. It makes sense—that unit is what tells the system to turn on and off, so if it's not working correctly, it may not be sending the right signals.
  • You're going about your day and start to feel uncomfortably warm or cold, so you decide to adjust the thermostat—only to realize that the temperature displayed on it doesn't seem to match how the house feels to you. While your first assumption may be that you're the one who was wrong, don't let your system gaslight you. It's definitely possible that you need Dallas thermostat replacement for a unit that is not working properly. If you suspect the temperature displayed on your unit may not be correct, the easiest way to confirm is by cross-referencing with an indoor thermometer. If the reading on your thermometer deviates from the reading on your unit by more than a couple of degrees, that's a cause for concern.

Unexplained Temperature Changes

Speaking of extreme temperature swings, maybe the above scenario happened to you—but when you went to check your display, it was showing a temperature you definitely didn't set it to. It's reading the temperature correctly, but taking matters into its own hands (or circuits, as the case may be) to change your temperature settings all on its own. That's obviously irritating, but it's also really inefficient and doesn't serve the needs of your household. The problem is likely related to a glitch or system failure that can't really be repaired, but it's easily solved with Dallas thermostat replacement service from our experienced team.

Doesn't Respond to Changed Settings

Here's another annoying sign that your unit is overdue for replacement: when you try to adjust temperature settings, absolutely nothing happens. The reading on your display may or may not change when you press buttons, but either way, the temperature stays exactly the same. This is another thermostat replacement situation that can make you wonder if you're imagining things. If you're not sure, you can pinpoint your unit's faulty behavior by checking the reading on an indoor thermometer.

Increasing Energy Costs

Have you noticed that your energy consumption on your monthly utility bill is increasing? There's a lot of possible causes for that issue, but it's possible it does relate back to a thermostat that is on its last legs. Even if your HVAC system is running perfectly, your heating and cooling costs will still account for the majority share of your energy costs. That's because HVAC equipment needs to use a lot of fuel, whether it's electricity or natural gas, to keep up with the temperature demands in your house. When your thermostat is sending the wrong signals, it can't operate efficiently and ends up using more fuel—enough to make a noticeable difference on your bill. There are some modern thermostats that can help increase your energy savings as well, such as smart thermostats with programmable settings.

Frequently Asked Questions About Thermostat Replacement

Would you like to know more about Dallas thermostat replacement? Give us a call to speak with our friendly office staff and find out the answers to all your questions, or check out our responses to some common questions below.

  • If your unit isn't working properly, Dallas thermostat replacement is generally the most cost-effective, simple solution. but when you're experiencing difficulty with your furnace, AC unit or another part of your HVAC like an electric baseboard heating system, it can be difficult to tell whether the issue actually lies with your thermostat or the culprit is another part of your system altogether. Before you call Aire Serv of Dallas for diagnostic service, there are a few places you should check to troubleshoot and figure out where your problem is originating:

    • Screen: If you have a digital thermostat, the first place you should check is the digital interface screen. If it's completely blank or won't light up, it could mean the unit is broken or it's not getting any power for some reason.

    • Batteries: Your unit should display a battery message when its batteries are losing their charge. But even if it doesn't, when a unit is showing signs of losing power such as a dim or blank screen, it's worth checking to see if fresh batteries solve the problem. It could also be related to loose or disconnected wires.

    • Settings: If the problem is that temperatures in your house don't feel right, double-check settings on your unit to make sure it is set to either heat or cool, depending on what you currently need. If the temperature is set too high in the summer or too low in the winter, your system may not turn on because your house has naturally surpassed the setting on your unit.

    • Circuit Breaker Box: If it seems like your unit isn't turning on, that might because it's not getting any power. Take a look at your electrical panel to see if any breakers have been tripped, and check your HVAC equipment for breakers that may have been flipped.

    • Location: Finally, think about the location of your thermostat. If it's frequently exposed to direct sunlight, for example, that can affect its ability to get an accurate temperature reading for the house. A hole in the drywall behind the wall plate can also cause inaccurate readings.
