Some Common Thermostat Issues That Require Repair Work<\/h3>\n
    \n
  • Miscalibration: <\/strong>When a thermostat begins to misread a home\u2019s temperature by a few degrees or more\u2014a miscalibration in the temperature sensor\u2014it will result in behavior from the air conditioner that will create an uncomfortable home environment. This is usually a simple repair for technicians, although they may advise that you replace an old manual model thermostat with an updated and more precise digital programmable unit.<\/li>\n
  • Connection loss:<\/strong> A thermostat (except for recent wireless models) communicates to an air conditioner through a series of wires that control when the fans and the compressor turn on and off. Loss of connection in any of these wires due to breaks or loose connections will cause the air conditioner to fail to turn on or refuse to turn off. These types of problems often look like serious malfunctions within the AC itself, but experts will narrow down the problem if it originates with the thermostat and provide the necessary targeted repairs.<\/li>\n
  • Poor unit placement:<\/strong> If amateurs originally installed the AC in your home, the thermostat may be located in a poor position to record accurate temperatures. If it the thermostat is too far from the center of the house, it will pick up outlier readings that won\u2019t reflect the actual temperature of the rest of the house. If placed in direct sunlight or near outside drafts, the thermostat will detect \u201cghost readings\u201d higher or lower than the true temperature. These problems will all lead to poor AC performance. Technicians will have to move the thermostat to a better spot.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
