FAQ

Q: Is C wire required?
A: Yes, a C wire is required. Also, only three wires are needed if the thermostat is only being used for heat (including C).

Q: Will it go down to 40 degrees on the heat setting?
A: Yes, the heat point can be set to 40 degrees through the app.

Q: What happens if you lose internet service?
A: The thermostat will still work, but remote access will be lost until it is reconnected to the internet.

Q: Will it send you an alert if the temperature drops too low?
A: Not that we are aware of. The unit can be easily logged into and displays inside and outside temperature and A/C activity. The phone can be used to log in and set inside temperature, heat, and A/C. There is good phone support for questions on a renewed unit. This thermostat works with a heat pump unit.

Q: Is there an auto option in the system menu or is it just heat, cool, and off?
A: Yes, there is an auto option that needs to be set up in programming. The instructions have this information, and Honeywell customer support is also helpful.

Q: How does it work with electric heat?
A: This thermostat does not work with electric baseboard heat (120-240V), but it does work with most heat/cool oil furnace systems. It will not work with heating-only oil furnace systems unless a C wire is present.

Q: Is there a humidity display and can I see it via WiFi?
A: There is no humidity display on this model.

Overall, this Honeywell Home Wi-Fi Programmable Thermostat is energy star certified and compatible with voice assistant devices like Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant, Microsoft Cortana, and more.

The thermostat also has features like smart response, which learns your comfort preferences and home cycles. It requires a C wire and is compatible with forced air (gas, oil, or electric), hot water and steam, and heat pumps with electric backup. However, it will not work with electric baseboard heat (120-240V).
