Thermostat Troubles and Winter Woes

December 12, 2024

Don't be like me...

   Akron Ohio had its first little snow for the year, we got about 2 inches, which for those that live in the snow belt of Ohio, is just another day in the park.  Temperatures were in the high 20's and furnaces we're giving it all they had to keep those in their homes warm and cozy.


   This was also the weekend that my thermostat broke.  The batteries were new and the unit read that the heat was on (can confirm that it was not) and that temps were dropping into the low 60s.  What I did and what I should have done were two different things...


   What I should have done was to book an appointment for Monday morning with Unified Comfort Systems, so they could have technician out first thing and repair my HVAC issue.  What I decided to do, with my 'Ain't nobody got time for that' attitude was to pop the face-plate off and on all day, so that the heat would actually turn on for a few minutes – It was the wrong decision and I regret everything.

   If this situation sounds familiar, firstly, I'm sorry we've shared the experience, and secondly, I've already mentioned the solution – One call to Unified Comfort Systems (or a couple clicks on their website) would have solved all of my problems. A tech would have been to my house, at a time that worked for me, with none of that between 8am and 2pm nonsense from other companies, and everything would have been peachy.


   A Unified Comfort HVAC Professional would have installed a new thermostat, ensured the HVAC system was performing, and done a visual spot check for anything weird or out of place – in other words my family and I would have been warm, happy, and safe.


   So this winter season, if your thermostat starts giving you trouble, make the right choice, schedule your appointment as soon as possible to have repairs made and your comfort restored.  If you're interested in smart thermostats that learn your HVAC patterns, save energy, and have WiFi enabled controls, we have a blog over here covering our two most popular and cutting-edge models!
