Yes, it is recommended to hire a licensed electrician to install a new thermostat. This is because thermostats require electrical wiring and proper installation to ensure they function correctly and safely. An electrician can also ensure that the wiring is up to code and that the thermostat is compatible with your HVAC system. Attempting to install a thermostat yourself can be dangerous and may result in damage to your HVAC system or even electrical shock.
