Boise Smart Thermostats
HVAC Thermostats in Boise, Idaho
Remember the Jetson’s with their smart gadgets and advanced home of the future?
Well, these smart thermostats have come a long way since then. Many homes have an outdated thermostat that is so cumbersome to use that many homeowners just set it to a single temperature and leave it alone. Or worse, only the man of the house gets to touch the thermostat!
When you opt for a smart thermostat, you can tie it to your phone through a mobile app, putting the comfort of your home right at your fingertips. This helps to improve the efficiency of your system drastically, by creating easy to manage schedules and usage reports on the fly.

Customer Testimonials
Kari C Gem Heating and Air Conditioning have been great to work with. My furnace went out on a Friday and they were very quick to show up at my house immediately and diagnose and fix the problem to avoid an emergency call out over the weekend. James took the time to explain everything to me thoroughly and was very clear about my options moving forward. They are very easy to reach when needed, and respond right away when you have questions. The business is a local independent and family run business, making your interaction with them more personal. Would highly recommend this business! James Barrett Great service. Not the cheapest but they sure do great work! Wilderness Medic James was super nice and quick getting my AC repaired before the summer. Michelle Baker We had a great experience with Gem Heating and Air Conditioning. James came out and took care of our A/C problem this past fall and we were able to sign up with their maintenance program. We look forward to working with them going forward! We’d recommend them for all your HVAC needs. William Herd Our mini split system wasn't heating. James came out and got it diagnosed and up and running. There were some unavoidable costs, but he worked with us best he could and there have been no issues since. Great service, thanks James. Brian Bentler I highly, highly recommend Gem Heating and Air Conditioning!!! Lea Garcia Jax was very professional and made sure everything was in order. They worked on replacing my HVAC vents that were ruined after my leak. Carol L Chase They’re wonderful David “Aerothises” Fast response time, transparency, documentation, and personalization. I am happy with y'all's service call and look forward to working with you all in the future. I hired the company to come out and do a seasonal inspection, and they found a handful of items that the previous installers overlooked either in haste or carelessness. We put together a plan to keep the system running at peak performance after the initial evaluation that exposed issues that reveal a darker story for the other company I hired last year.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you offer smart thermostats when I buy a new HVAC system from you?
We sure do! Although not required with a new furnace and air conditioning installation, we highly recommend upgrading your older thermostat to a more energy-efficient smart thermostat. We can consult you on our model recommendations during our HVAC consultation.
Will you teach me how to use my smart thermostat after installation?
Absolutely! We will install your thermostat along with pairing it to your smartphone and teach you how to use and manage your heating and air conditioning settings from your smartphone app.
Is it true that a smart thermostat will save me money on my energy bills?
Yes. Smart thermostats are designed to be highly customizable when it comes to setting schedules for heating and cooling. This means your HVAC unit will run only when it should, rather than all the time to help preserve energy.
Can I upgrade my thermostat even if we have an older HVAC unit?
Most definitely! Although the wiring can change when it comes to installing your thermostat, smart thermostats can be used in conjunction with almost any heating and air conditioning unit with ease.
What are the top smart thermostats on the market that you recommend?
Some of the top brands include Nest, Google, Honeywell, Ecobee, as well as many other options. All of them will give you the option to control your heating and cooling from your phone, which makes life easy.
How long do smart thermostats need to be upgraded?
A smart thermostat should last you many years. It’s hard to put a number on it, but you should easily be able to get 10+ years on your thermostat, if not more. Normally homeowners only upgrade due to obsolete technology. opposed to their unit becoming defective.
Do smart thermostats run on battery or are they wired into my home's power?
Both. Most smart thermostats run on both a lithium battery which should last around a year, as well as hired wired into your house wiring that runs directly to your furnace. Lithium batteries last longer than normal ones, so you won’t need to change them often.
