Thermostat Issues Can Cause Your A/C to Go Bad

Thermostat Issues Can Cause Your AC to Go Bad of Cellino Plumbing Heating and Cooling Experts

There is a chance that your thermostat may be responsible for any recent issues with your air conditioner. It is arguably the most important part of your HVAC system, as it controls how hot or cold you want to make your home. And although we interact with the thermostat daily, it tends to be overlooked when an issue arises with the HVAC system.  

A malfunctioning thermostat may not be able to communicate properly with your A/C or furnace, causing both to stop working. Other times when the thermostat malfunctions, it can cause serious issues with your A/C unit specifically. One of the most common things that can go wrong is short cycling—when the A/C turns on and off before it completes its cycle. The thermostat will immediately kick the system back on again, damaging internal parts like compressors or motors. And with the compressor being one of the most expensive parts to fix, you want to make sure you avoid any possibility of damaging it.  

Another common issue we see is distorted wiring within the thermostat. Wiring issues can cause the fan in your HVAC system to run constantly, leading it to wear out prematurely and need replacement.
