Q: QuestionWhat battery does it use?

Asked 5 years ago by Hash.

• A:Answer This thermostat is not battery operated; it is powered by the R and C wires from your HVAC system. If there is a power outage or you disconnect and reconnect the thermostat, it will prompt you to reset the time and day. Other settings will be maintained in nonvolatile memory.

Q: QuestionIs this compatible with the wiring for the thermostat I need to replace which controls my heat and A/C, a Totaline P310?

Asked 5 years ago by Marianne.

• A:Answer Hi Marianne, I'm no expert but it appears your Tstat has batteries, mine did too, the Honeywell does not have batteries and relies on the 24 volts supply from the Furnace circuit board. There also needs to be a spare wire in your wire loom to the T-stat. Mine had this so I just connected it to the t-stat and the furnace circuit board. There was a wiring diagram int the furnace compartment that told which connector was the constant 24 volts supply. Hope this helps and please read all directions carefully. You are responsible for your own connections. Good luck!

Q: QuestionIs this password protect thermostat

Asked 5 years ago by Eric.

• A:Answer Short answer, not through the thermostat. This unit connects directly to your home router and internet service. Which is or should be password protected. Depending on your router and internet provider you will be able to control access. I use Xfinity/Comcast equipment and internet service, I have the thermostat set up to where I have access (from anywhere there is internet connections) through the router and provider. Hope this helps answer your question.

Q: QuestionFOR THE C-WIRE ADAPTER WIRE CAN I RUN THE WIRE ON THE BOTTOM OF THE UNIT AND USE WIRE COVER???

Asked 5 years ago by MERCURY.

• A:Answer I’m not sure what is meant by “wire cover”. My original connection involved a multi wire wrap many of which were not used. I used an ohm meter to confirm continuity and connected to the C terminals. It works great.

Q: QuestionHow to get house cool what temperatures to set it on.

Asked 5 years ago by Connie.

• A:Answer That depends on how cool you want the interior of your house. If you like it on the warm side then set it at about 80°F. If you like it cooler then perhaps set it at 76°F. If you prefer it to be cold then any temperature setting below 70°F will really cool the interior environment. Aren't thermostats wonderful?! Eso depende de lo genial que quieras el interior de tu casa. Si le gusta el lado cálido, ajústelo a unos 80 ° F. Si te gusta más fresco, entonces quizás configúralo a 76 ° F. Si prefiere que haga frío, cualquier ajuste de temperatura por debajo de 70 ° F realmente enfriará el ambiente interior. ¿No son maravillosos los termostatos?
