Do you usually think of your thermostat as a part of the HVAC system? Or do you consider it something separate, a basic control panel on the wall that you have to adjust occasionally when somebody in the house starts complaining about it being too hot or too cold?
The thermostat is a control panel, but it’s also an essential part of the HVAC system. The thermostat connects you to the air conditioner and blower fan, but it also monitors temperatures in the house to detect and regulate how the AC works. If a thermostat has faults, such as miscalibrations or lost connections, it can create a slew of cooling troubles in your home. Often, those troubles may not at first seem like they’re coming from the thermostat, although professional HVAC technicians can track down the source for accurate air conditioning repair in Bellevue, WA.
During the summer, you want your air conditioning system to work. But simply working isn’t enough. Your air conditioner should also be efficient so it won’t drain more power than it needs in order to run. When AC efficiency dwindles, utility bills go up.

If you’re reading this, it’s likely that you have plans to make big changes to your home’s HVAC system this spring. It’s a great season for heating and air conditioning improvements, since it comes in between the hottest and coldest times of the year.

Spring is almost here, and although that doesn’t mean an automatic switch to warmer weather, it is the best time to start making plans about any big changes in your home heating and AC. Spring weather hovers pleasantly between too hot and too cold, which is an ideal situation to call on an 
Here’s a cold-weather irritation you might have pestering you: a house with cold spots scattered around it. Uneven heating can happen in a home for many reasons, and one of the basic ones is poor air balancing. This means the air coming from your furnace or heat pump isn’t being distributed equally through the ventilation system.
We didn’t experience cold weather anything like what recently struck the Midwest and Eastern US. However, the intense cold weather can serve as a warning to everyone—many homes do not have proper levels of insulation. 
As long as the furnace serving your home was correctly sized when it was installed, you can expect to be able to receive the level of heating comfort necessary no matter how cold the outside weather gets. But at some point you may notice a drop in comfort, with some or all of the rooms not receiving the warmth necessary. You may be tempted to push up the thermostat setting higher than normal to compensate, but please don’t. When your furnace is having trouble keeping up, it likely needs repairs—or even a replacement. 
This is a question we hear often from our customers in the Seattle area: “Do you have recommendations for better indoor air quality?” We understand why people ask this:
