Can I install a smart thermostat myself without professional help?
You can install a smart thermostat yourself, but we recommend professional installation to verify compatibility and ensure safe operation. Our licensed technicians regularly install smart thermostats during HVAC visits and adjust system controls as needed. We also confirm wiring and equipment compatibility so you don’t end up with a thermostat that won’t work, as some Roanoke and Rocky Mount homes have varied systems.
Quick checks if you DIY:
- Confirm the thermostat is compatible with your HVAC.
- Turn power off before removing the old unit.
- Label wires and take a photo of connections.
