Ever seen that "Aux Heat" light pop up on your thermostat and wondered if you should worry? Don’t sweat it! It’s usually just your system’s way of keeping you cozy during an Austin cold snap.
Think of auxiliary heat as a backup player. It jumps in to support your heat pump when it’s too chilly outside to keep up or during a defrost cycle. It’s a normal part of keeping your home comfortable!
Your thermostat settings dictate the action. "Max Comfort" might call for help sooner to reach your goal temp fast, while "Eco Mode" waits until it’s absolutely necessary. Every thermostat varies, so check your settings to see what works best for your home.
If that light stays on too long or your home feels cold, your condenser might need a quick look. Have questions about your system? Just reach out! We’re here for you with honest advice and straightforward answers: no upselling, just neighbors helping neighbors. Stay warm, Central Texas!
