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.
