    This thermostat with the sensor is great. Most homes are built with th air handler on the opposite side of the house from the master bedroom. I purchased this one because of that with the sensor I was able to find out there was a five degree difference from the temperature in the living area and the master bedroom. This thermostat has giving me a balance in every room. Which means if the temperature is 70 degrees in the living area it is also 70 degrees in the master bedroom
