Before you buy a smart thermostat, it\u2019s important to know if it will work with your current HVAC and power systems. Otherwise, you won\u2019t be able to install it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Can You Install a Smart Thermostat in Your Home?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Most smart thermostats on the market today will only work with low-voltage power systems. To find out if your current thermostat is compatible, remove the cover faceplate and check the listed voltage. If you see 100V (volts) or up, you won\u2019t be able to install most smart thermostats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can also tell if you have a high-voltage system if your current thermostat only has 2 wires or if you have thick wires that are capped or stranded.<\/p>\n\n\n

Many smart thermostats will also require you to have a \u201cC wire\u201d (or \u201ccommon wire\u201d) in order to power your device. If your current thermostat doesn\u2019t have this wire, you might be able to buy an adapter, but there\u2019s still no guarantee that it will work.<\/p>\n\n\n
