        "text": "Most modern smart thermostats are designed to be compatible with a wide range of HVAC systems, including conventional and heat pump setups. However, compatibility can depend on specific wiring configurations, such as the presence of a C-wire (common wire), which provides continuous power to the thermostat. Before installation, AKN Design Group conducts a thorough assessment of your existing system to ensure seamless integration and optimal performance. This attention to detail reflects our approach to all residential design-build projects, where proper integration is key to enhancing functionality and avoiding complications.",
