Signs It’s Time To Repair Your Thermostat

A thermostat is the brain of your home’s heating and cooling system. Thermostats are responsible for keeping your home a comfortable temperature and instruct your HVAC system to maintain a certain temperature. When thermostats malfunction, your whole heating and cooling system can face the effects. Below we have listed signs your thermostat needs repair in Southport, NC.

  • Temperature Inconsistencies: If you’ve noticed that your home has uneven heating or cooling conditions, and you can’t get it under control – this could be a telltale sign of a defective thermostat.
  • Accurate Readings: If your thermostat displays incorrect temperatures or fails to respond when adjustments are made, professional assistance may be required for repairs.
  • Frequent Cycling: If your HVAC system cycles on and off more frequently than you’d prefer, this could be indicating that the thermostat is malfunctioning.
  • Non-responsive Controls Or Unlit Displays: Non-responsive buttons or unlit displays could indicate problems within its internal components that need attention.

What Are The Benefits Of Replacing Your Thermostat

Replacing your thermostat with a newer, efficient model can provide an array of benefits, such as:

  • Improved Energy Efficiency: Modern thermostats come equipped with features designed to enhance energy efficiency, including programmable schedules, occupancy sensors, and learning capabilities that help save on energy usage. Upgrading to a more energy-efficient model could result in significant energy savings.
  • Improved Comfort: Newer thermostats offer precise temperature regulation to keep your home comfortable all year-long.
  • Smart Home Integration: Smart thermostats easily integrate with other smart devices in your home, enabling remote monitoring and management of HVAC systems for convenient energy savings. It makes saving on energy bills simple.

When To Replace Your Thermostat

Thermostats typically last 10 years, but many homeowners replace them earlier due to technological advancements. Below we have listed signs it is time to replace your thermostat.

  • Frequent Repairs: If your thermostat needs frequent repairs and is consistently malfunctioning, it may be more cost-effective to switch out for one that offers greater efficiency and dependability.
  • Upgrade Outdated Technology: If your thermostat lacks modern features, upgrading to a more energy-efficient model could increase both comfort and energy savings.
  • Home Renovations: When undertaking any major home improvements or HVAC system upgrades, now may be an opportune time to replace your thermostat to ensure compatibility and maximize benefits from these changes.
  • Incompatibility: If you have upgraded your HVAC system, replacing the thermostat may ensure proper functionality and efficiency of both.

What Your Hometown Is Saying About Weikle’s


Read what the Southport area has to say about our expert services

Excellent service! David came out and serviced our AC/heating unit today. He is very efficient with his work - very nice! We greatly appreciate him and his company.
The Owner was amazing. Answered all question and very knowledgably
Steve was professional and got the job done, quickly. Will use again.
Called around 3:30 pm and they were out by 5. When unit couldn't be repaired, gave 2 window units until new ac can be installed.
David was awesome! He came right out explained everything and showed us parts. Very respectful,through and honest. The price was fair also.
The response time was fantastic. I called on a Saturday and within a few hours the technician (David) was there. David was the most thorough technician I have probably experienced. He analyzed the problem and discussed many options with us. He is a great asset to the company and the service they provide to customers.
Moved to the area last year into a home that has mini split units installed. The previous owner had left us information on who she had been using to service the mini splits. After two less than satisfactory appointments with that company, Weikles was recommended by someone else. Called David yesterday (Labor Day) with a problem with one of the units. David came out today and not only addressed the problem, but gave my wife and I an education on using mini split units. He was not in a hurry to move onto the next job, but took the time to explain how to properly operate the units. We will be signing a service contract with David next week. Excellent service and an honest businessman.
David was very professional and knowledgeable of his product. Would highly recommend Weikle's Hometown Heating & Air for fast and reliable service. Thank You David!!!
My AC stopped working, it wouldn’t blow cold air. The Freon must of leaked out. The unit is a touch over 2 years old. Called the original company that installed it and they wanted to charge over $1000 for repairs. They were only going to provide 60 day warranty.I heard about Weikle’s from coworkers. There were 3 coworkers that used them. I’m super happy that I called them. They got it up and running for a fraction of what the original company wanted to charge. They will return to check for leaks and to see what needs to be done to fix it.Based on the “mom and pop” service that they provided, I trust that they would have honest and fair pricing. Unlike the other company that wanted to nickel and dime for random stuff, like torch fee, vacuum and so onI plan on using Weikle’s for my in laws in the future to check their AC system to ensure that everything is good
The service was very fast, friendly and affordable. Great job 👍
Very prompt and courteous!
We have had issues with our new construction HVAC system for the past 3 years. We tried a few different HVAC companies but either got the answer "that's normal in the South" or that they would need to do an involved investigation of the problem. Finally, we gave Weikle's a call. Our technician (David) walked in to the attic and immediately identified the issue without even touching the unit. After the initial fix was in place, David inspected the entire system and found several other issues that were affecting our AC. He showed me the ones that I could do myself, and then he took care of the rest. We "HIGHLY" recommend Weikle's Hometown Heating & Air and will use them in the future.
Dave was very thorough and took the time to understand my concerns.. I recommend his service’s highly.
David showed up within an hour of my service call. He was very knowledgeable and took care of my issues quickly. I would highly recommend his services to anyone.
David and his partner were very friendly and informative. We received great SAME day service from our initial call through inspection and service!
We have had 2 unrelated issues this summer with our HVAC, and called Weikle's. We received extremely fast service that was AMAZING both times . You have a customer for life! Thank you again!
Appreciate the prompt response in addition to the "Hometown" quality of this business. The service provided by Technician Kayne was professtional trustworthy and down to earth.
They did a great job getting our new HVAC installed. David went all out to please us. We would recommend him to all.
If you're looking for a top notch honest company with a strong commitment to it's customers than call these guys! They saved us in a dire need when our other box name company that just installed a new unit and duct work couldn't. Not only did they quickly come to our rescue but went above and beyond to tell us other concerns to look into with our installation. That's honesty, that's integrity and that's who I want my service and money going to. I can't say enough good things about our experience, ease of payment online, breakout invoices and fair prices. Just call them!
We’re very prompt on an urgent need! Very efficient, very prompt, nice to deal with!
Called early morning and received a live person with an estimated two hr range. David called with an exact eta. He arrived promptly, assessed the system, provided an estimate and repaired my unit. He also offered suggestions for system efficiency.
I will be using Weikle’s Hometown Heating & Air for all future services! I had an issue with my A/C today and David was there within 10 mins! Awesome service, kind and took the time to explain the issues I was having! Thank you!
Last week, I received superb air conditioning service from Dave (the owner) and Cain at Weikles Hometown Heating and Air. From the moment Alyssa booked my appointment, I was impressed by their fast response time, extensive knowledge, and trustworthiness. They earned my business so thoroughly that I even requested a service contract and asked them to check my dehumidifier in the crawl space. My air conditioner is now working perfectly.This service is beyond 5 stars! Look no further if you want the best!
Excellent service, very honest and explains in detail what I needed done to my AC Unit. Highly recommend!
They showed up on time, did a great job, and were very professional and courteous. I would definitely recommend them and I will be using their services in the future. Thanks
We had an emergency over the weekend and Weikles cane out to help even as a new customer after hours. They were able to add a temporary fix and order us a new part. Two days later it was installed! Very professional, quick, and affordable service. They also helped me understand my system even more than I thought I knew it. I would highly recommend Weikles!
David came after hours because our air was broken in the middle of summer. He came right on time, he was very friendly, he got the problem fixed in no time, and even changed our filter for us! Highly recommended this company!
Service was timely, efficient and professional.
We highly recommend Weikle’s Hometown Heating & Air. Both our upstairs and downstairs AC units went out at the same time. Just bad luck.David made it out the same day and quickly diagnosed both units.I knew before David came, we were not repairing the downstairs unit, which was installed in 1997. Hard to ask more than 27 years from a system on Oak Island.David quickly repaired the upstairs unit. We scheduled the downstairs replacement a week later. David kept his schedule and communicated extremely well. We did have a minor issue with the new unit. I called David and he was at our place within 30 minutes. Great service after the sale, too!His price was fair. His service was exceptional. On top of that, he is local and a kind human. Much appreciated. Again, highly recommended.
Not only was David able to respond quickly but he actually took his time and explained everything ! Since we purchased our home 5 years ago it has been a struggle to keep it cool . We are beyond grateful for you help ! For the first time in 5 years our home is actually cool 😊
I woke up to a very warm house yesterday morning and called Weikle's immediately. Even though their schedule was full, David assured me that he would get over to the house ASAP. When he was running a little behind schedule, he called me to let me know. I really appreciated that update because it allowed me time to take care of errands that had to done.It was a pleasure working with David. He was very personable and respectful. He explained my problem and fixed it promptly. I also signed up for his yearly service because I trust him to do a great job. I feel like I have one less home ownership issue to worry about with David taking care of the HVAC.Thank you, David!
I rarely take the time to do a review for any company but I definitely will make an exception for Weikles Hometown heating and Air. I just got home to my house in Oak island yesterday and was working late on the exterior of the home. To my surprise I went in and of course the A/C was not working. I received a recommendation from Oak island page to contact Weikles. I did and within an hour a young man name David was at my door. Within an hour my A/C was back on. I expected to pay an arm and leg but that wasn’t the case. He also came back today to put a little more Freon in my system as he ran a little short the previous night. I highly recommend this company to anyone who needs A/C or heat repair or maintenance. A very honest young man. My hats off to this company…customer for life…thank you
David did a wonderful job. I highly recommend this group. The price and service was great!
Excellent service from David, on time, polite, very thorough, found the real problem instead of just throwing a 'band aid' on it, and Alyssa was very easy to work with and quick to respond, no one likes having no AC and she was able to schedule our repair the same day, we were very thankful. Would definitely recommend and will continue to use in the future.
Boy am I glad we met David! Smart, curious, knowledgeable, pleasant , available. A gem😎👍
We just had our HVAC serviced by Weikle’s. David was very professional very courteous. Reasonably priced too. Highly recommend.
Highly recommend!!! Efficient, thorough, honest, knowledgeable! Will be my new HVAC man!!
For all your HVAC needs contact David fast friendly service all at a very reasonable price
Extremely fast and friendly service. He is incredibly knowledgeable and went above and beyond to help and fix our AC problems. We couldn’t be any happier. Thanks!
Awesome n very dependable n did a super job
Thank you so much for all of your help! David did seasonal maintenance on our system and we signed up for a yearly contract. Highly reccomended!
My mom and I can’t say enough wonderful things about David!! Buying a home from out of state is stressful, especially when we needed HVAC work done. David was extremely thorough in his detailed estimate, complete with pictures, and incredibly knowledgeable. He completed the work on time and with great care. When we had a roof issue he quickly went right over and helped us assess the issue (not due to the HVAC) and even helped us find a repair person! Highly recommend David and will continue to use him and refer him!!!
We were having inefficiency issues with our HVAC unit. Were looking for a new service provider and saw many great reviews regarding Weikle's Hometown Heating & Air. So, we took a chance and had David come to check things out. We were very impressed with the service. He gave a very thorough checkup, cleaning, replacing defective parts, and reprogramming our system to run more efficiently. Pricing was very reasonable, he was very respectful (wore shoe covers and made sure all was clean before he left), suggested repairs to be made but never pressured. And, offered a yearly Maintenace Agreement which saved us money upfront as well as for future repairs, if needed. We HIGHLY recommend Weikle's Hometown Heating & Air to everyone in the Brunswick County area. Thank you David!
David was very professional and arrived promptly. Took the time to explain each step along the way. Solved the problems with our HVAC system. Very pleased.
