Your air conditioning thermostat is key to having a comfortable indoor experience as it is responsible for setting and reaching your preferred temperature. It also manages various functions while operating. Sometimes, however, the device can’t reach the temperature you set. There are many possible reasons for this issue, so it’s best to call a technician to check and repair your unit.
In this article, an AC and water heater repair company discusses the most common reasons thermostats can’t reach the set temperature.
When you set your thermostat, the air conditioning system needs time to reach your desired temperature. The thermostat needs to be on the whole time as the system does this since it is the control interface for your heating and cooling unit. If the thermostat loses power while reaching the set temperature, the cooling or heating system will shut down. Most air conditioning thermostats have screens on them. If they’re dark or blank, they’re not on.
Your thermostat isn’t reaching the set temperature because it might be broken. The buttons and screen may look like they’re working, but the settings you punched in may not be reaching the system. There’s no other way around this but to have the device repaired or replaced. To get the best deal, make sure to compare multiple AC repair cost estimates from local air conditioning companies.
Most of the time, technicians discover that the thermostat isn’t compatible with the air conditioning system. There are different thermostats intended for various sizes of air conditioning systems. Some thermostats are meant for smaller systems while others are designed for very large spaces. If the thermostat you’re using isn’t compatible or wasn’t designed for your system, then you should replace it immediately.
