Signs of a Faulty Thermostat
These issues can often be traced back to the thermostat itself.
HVAC System Won't Turn On
If the system has power but isn't responding, the thermostat may be the culprit.
HVAC System Short Cycles
The system turning on and off rapidly can be caused by faulty wiring or incorrect thermostat placement.
Inaccurate Temperature Readings
If the temperature in your home never seems to match the thermostat setting.
Blank or Unresponsive Screen
A clear sign that the thermostat has lost power or has failed internally.
When to Call a Professional
For safety and to prevent costly damage, most water heater issues require a licensed plumber. Call immediately if you suspect a gas leak (smell of rotten eggs). Otherwise, schedule a service for any of the signs listed above, especially for leaks or if you are not comfortable performing maintenance yourself.
