Ecobee3 Wi-Fi thermostat installation in Northwest Arkansas

The ecobee3 reads more than one spot in the house and answers to your phone. Anderson Air installs it, sets up the sensors and app, and repairs it if it acts up.

Chapter 01

What the ecobee does that a standard thermostat cannot

A standard thermostat reads one spot: the wall where it hangs. The ecobee3 is a Wi-Fi thermostat, so it connects to your home network and to an app, and you can see and change your settings from your phone. That is the point of a smart Wi-Fi thermostat: better climate control, at home or away, and it is why many homeowners choose one for comfort and lower monthly bills.

The ecobee also works with room sensors. Instead of relying on the hallway reading alone, the system can take temperature from the rooms you use, which helps in a house with hot and cold spots, such as an upstairs bedroom that lags behind the living room. Anderson Air installs and repairs the ecobee3 in Springdale and across Northwest Arkansas, and a technician can help you decide whether it is the right thermostat for your system.

How we install it, place the room sensors and link the app

Installation starts with a look at the system. The technician inspects the equipment, the wires at the thermostat and the connections at the furnace or air handler, and confirms the ecobee is a fit. The power goes off, the old thermostat comes down, and the ecobee's mounting plate goes up level on the wall. Each wire lands on its terminal, the unit is mounted and the power is restored.

Then come the sensors and the app. The technician sets the equipment type, connects the ecobee to your Wi-Fi and pairs it to your account in the mobile app. Room sensors are placed where they can read the room fairly: on an interior wall or shelf at living height, out of direct sun and away from a stove or a supply register. Heating and cooling are tested, and the technician explains what was done and gives you a tutorial on the new system.

Before the visit, your Anderson Air technician contacts you to let you know when they are close by. If the work can be done the same day, they will do it. If not, they book a later time that suits you. Either way, the visit starts with a look at your current system, so the technician knows what is on the wall before touching it, and any repair is explained to you once it is finished.

Chapter 03

How to get the savings once it is on the wall

Savings come from using what the ecobee gives you. Check the house from the mobile app when you are away and adjust the setting when your plans change, so the system is not holding full comfort for an empty house. Build a schedule around the rooms you actually use, with sensors in those rooms, and keep the setbacks modest so the equipment is not forced to catch up.

If the ecobee starts shutting off, shows an error code, heats or cools poorly, or the system will not turn off, call. It can be a battery issue, a sync problem between the thermostat and the system, or a connection fault, and a technician can tell which. Anderson Air services ecobee3 thermostats as well as installing them, and the repair visit follows the same steps as an install: a consultation, an appointment, the work itself and a walkthrough of what was done, so you know what changed and why.

Signs you need Ecobee3 Wifi Thermostat Installation

  • Shutting off or error codes

    A thermostat that keeps shutting down or shows an error code needs attention. It could be a battery or something else in the system.

  • Not heating or cooling properly

    The thermostat may not be synced to your system correctly, and a technician can take a closer look.

  • The system will not turn off

    A heater or air conditioner that keeps running can point to a bad connection between the system and the thermostat.
