Thermostat not working — Alicante, Valencian Community
A malfunctioning thermostat can leave your home too hot, too cold, or cause your HVAC system to cycle erratically, driving up energy bills. The problem may stem from dead batteries, faulty wiring, or a failed sensor inside the unit. An HVAC technician can test the thermostat, recalibrate or replace it, and ensure your heating and cooling system responds correctly.
Waarom dit veel voorkomt in Alicante
Alicante's extreme summer heat (regularly 38–42°C) makes air conditioning essential rather than optional, and HVAC systems work at maximum capacity for 3–4 months of the year. High UV exposure accelerates deterioration of outdoor condenser units and their mounts. Many older properties rely on individual split units rather than centralized systems, increasing maintenance complexity.
