A:AnswerIf what your asking is if the smart thermostat would activate your secondary heat source like electric, or gas when the outside temperature goes below the threshold the heat pump's sensor are set to, then answer is yes so long as you have the smart thermostat connected to wifi. The smart thermostat would not utilize the extra two wires connected to your existing thermostat and instead utilize weather information for your location on the internet to activate your auxiliary heat source.
A:AnswerHi Shaw, if the thermostat loses power, you will receive an alert indicating the thermostat is not able to communicate with our servers. Hope this helps. Have a great day!
A:AnswerYes, the unit can be used without a "C" wire. You do lose the ability to run the fan in your furnace, independently from the furnace.
I believe that you can also have multiple zones, but I have not done this myself.
Good luck
A:AnswerHi Meatman! Thank you for reaching us out and for bringing this to our attention. We will look into this further as this is not a feature of this thermostat. If you have further questions please feel free to reach us at 1-855-733-5465, reference case #00806826. We will be happy to solve any other doubt. Thank you!
A:AnswerThat is what it should do. When you turn your humidistat to the on setting then the thermostat controls everything. When you set your humidifier stat at a percentage of humidity then the humidistat cuts the power off to the thermostat and it takes control and decides when to turn the AC on or off in this case at 60% humidity.
A:AnswerThere is nothing about this thermostat that is different from any other programmable thermostat that would address any of these questions. What is unique is that it becomes a node on your WiFi ethernet and it gets its electric power from your furnace rather than from a battery. As a result you can set up an internet account in Honeywell Home and by logging into it from your smart phone or computer monitor and change temperature.
A:AnswerYour thermostat would need to have an AUTO setting
If it only has a Cool/hear/off mode it would not do what you are looking for.
In heat mode it will keep the temp at or above the temp you set it to but not the maximum temp
In cool mode it will keep the temp at it below the temp setting you set but not above the minimum temp
If your thermostat does not have an auto mode there are other wifi thermostats you can look at that do have an auto mode setting
A:AnswerHi BT! The Resideo Honeywell Home Smart Color Thermostat is compatible with common 24 volt systems such as forced air, hydronic, heat pump, oil, gas, and electric. It will not work with millivolt systems, such as a gas fireplace, or with 120/240 volt systems such as baseboard electric heat. Additionally, it is compatible with 3 Heat/2 Cool Heat Pump and 2 Heat/2 Cool Conventional systems. If you have any other questions regarding compatibility, or need help setting the thermostat up with your system, don't hesitate to reach out. You can give us a call at 1-855-733-5465 and our agents will be happy to help!
A:AnswerYou hook it up in the exact same way as it was hooked up to the original. I had this issue. When you program the thermestat, it will ask you if you have aux heat. If you program it incorrectly, when the ac comes on, it will blow heat Instead of cold. If this happens, simply change the program settings.
A:AnswerHi HoneyLover! The Honeywell Smart Color Thermostat (RTH9585WF) is specifically a retail model only. The RTH9580WF is a retail version of a different thermostat we sell that is trade only. The only difference is in the appearance of the display; they are both capable of controlling the same types of equipment. I hope you found this helpful! Thank you.
A:AnswerHi rkymtn! Thank you for your question about the Honeywell Smart Color Thermostat. There is no difference between the RTH9585WF and the RTH9585WF1004. The last four numbers found at the end of Honeywell model numbers can signify revisions to the thermostats as well as countries where the thermostats are available. When updates are made to a specific model number they will keep the base (ex: RTH9585WF) and then change the last four (ex: 1004) to signify the change. I hope that answered your question! Thank you!
A:AnswerHi Drue, this is not what you should expect. The system should not keep running past the set point. Please verify if the thermostat keeps showing 'Heat On' past the set point and feel free to contact our tech support team at (800) 633-3991 or via Private Message to our Honeywell Home Facebook account. We will be happy to help troubleshooting and verify what can be causing this. - Maria
A:AnswerNo the Rc is the red wire. You need 5 wires or more for this to run with all the functions. You can use one of the other wires but you have to drop control of the fan. It will only come on when furnace comes on.
