FAQs
-
What is a Smart Thermostat?
A smart thermostat is technology-driven equipment which gives you more control over your home temperature. A properly installed smart thermostat can learn your daily habits and adjust your home heating and cooling automatically, as well as allow you to control your home temperature from anywhere using your smartphone.
One of the key advantages of a smart thermostat is reduced energy costs from increased heating and cooling system efficiency. A Nest smart thermostat can learn your habits throughout the seasons and create a daily schedule of when to heat or cool your home, and when to turn the systems off. Some systems also offer geofencing technology, learning when you leave home and when you return to determine the best times to run your home comfort system.
-
Will a Smart Thermostat Work in My Home?
Smart thermostats will work in most homes, regardless of the type of system you have installed. Although homeowners can install a smart thermostat in newer homes by replacing the built-in thermostat, those with older heading systems will need some minor modifications to ensure everything works safely and correctly. An expert HVAC technician from Heritage can help you determine if you need new wiring installed or a new system control box.
-
What Type of Smart Thermostat is Right for Me?
Heritage recommends the two most popular smart thermostats on the market, Nest and Honeywell. We carry both types of thermostats, and are a Nest Pro Elite installer, giving you full assurance that your upgrade will be installed correctly the first time. We can also install other smart thermostat brands as well, including Ecobee.
-
When Should I Get My Smart Thermostat Installed?
Any season is a good time to get a smart thermostat installed in your home. While some homeowners may choose the changing of the seasons – winter to spring or summer to fall – to get a smart thermostat installed, a new smart home device can be added to your home any time of the year. If you plan on installing in the summer and are concerned about humidity, some systems can even monitor your home and run your dehumidifier to reduce moisture buildup.

When my AC quit suddenly, Heritage came in a timely fashion and did an excellent job. The four gentlemen who helped me were professional and knowledgeable. Joe diagnosed the problem and was very thorough in explaining the cost of repair versus replacement. Bobby, Harrison and the electrician Liam did the replacement and were wonderful to work with. They explained the process carefully, answered all my questions and completed the job efficiently and quickly. I would certainly call the company again for any HVAC, plumbing or electrical needs. Thanks Heritage!

First time using Heritage, as two other plumbers I’ve used in the past gave me long lead times. Heritage answered my call personally, and scheduled me same day-amazing considering it was a Saturday! I had a leaking outdoor spigot, and given the drought, waiting a week to fix it was out of the question. The technician sent out, James Shallow, could not have been more professional, knowledgeable and personable. He showed up on time, did the job seamlessly and without issue. He spent time educating us as to how to avoid this problem in the future, and it was a genuinely pleasant experience. I will most definitely use & recommend Heritage again (request Jimmy).

Alex came to fix a water main leak at my home which was pre-manufactured in the late eighties. He found and fixed the leak quickly. After the job was complete I spoke with him about the cause because this is the third time in a year with a leak. He spent the time with me explaining the material used for piping in my place and checked the water pressure. The pressure was on the high end and we both concluded between pressure spikes and old plastic pipes. I asked for an estimate to replace all the pipes. He was able to give me an estimate on the spot and found financing with very reasonable terms. Two days later Heritage Home Services was here with two trucks and completely changed out the piping in a day. In short. This place answers the phone. Gets technician on the job quickly. Great knowledge. Cleaned thoroughly before leaving.

We called several plumbers and I got “we are too busy” and “it’s too small of a job”. Not with heritage though! They were able to get us on the schedule in a timely manner and helped us with our plumbing issue. Thank you Zach! Zach was quick and professional! Will definitely use again!

I’ve dealt with Heritage for many years because of their dependability. They are not the cheapest, for sure, but if you need a plumbing or HVAC system installed or serviced/repaired, there’s none better. I needed repairs to be done on slim duct covers that were damaged after having siding installed on my home. I called Heritage because they were the company that installed the original mini-split system in my house several years earlier. John Lindonen and another technician (unfortunately, I don’t remember his name) showed up as committed and did the repair work. They were very thorough, explaining every issue to me and answered all of my questions. They were polite, and extremely knowledgeable. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend these guys to my family or friends.

The AI interactive was ok but screwed up my ph# so never got a call. However, Camile arrived and spent time discussing my points and activities performed, helped me tremendously and ultimately didn’t need service. He was professional, informative, and transparent so Heritage, please acknowledge his great service!

Frequently Asked Questions
-
What are the benefits of a smart thermostat?
Smart thermostats allow you to control your home’s heating and cooling remotely from a smartphone, learn your schedule to optimize comfort and efficiency, provide energy usage reports, and can integrate with other smart home devices. Many homeowners see noticeable reductions in their energy bills after installing a smart thermostat.
-
Can a smart thermostat be installed in any Maine home?
Most homes with a standard 24-volt HVAC system are compatible with smart thermostats. However, some older systems, high-voltage heating systems, or multi-stage setups may require specific thermostat models or additional wiring. Heritage will check your system compatibility and handle the installation properly.
-
Which smart thermostat brands does Heritage install?
Heritage installs smart thermostats from leading brands including Nest, ecobee, Honeywell Home, and others. Our technicians can recommend the best option based on your HVAC system, home layout, and preferred features.
-
Do I need an electrician to install a smart thermostat?
While some homeowners attempt DIY installation, having a licensed professional install your smart thermostat ensures correct wiring, proper system configuration, and full functionality. Incorrect wiring can damage your HVAC system or cause the thermostat to malfunction. Heritage ensures everything is set up correctly from the start.
-
Can a smart thermostat work with my ductless mini-split system?
Some smart thermostats are compatible with ductless mini-split systems, though the options differ from those available for central HVAC systems. Heritage can advise you on which smart thermostat solutions work with your specific mini-split setup to provide convenient remote control and scheduling.
