Thanks for taking the time to make a comprehensive video. It was very helpful. Now, I will go check if I have a C wire.

Best video ever! It totally worked for me! So thankful!

[sandyneises]

Thank you! This video gave me to confidence to do it myself. I appreciate your time to do this.

Thank you! This video was amazing! I installed my thermostat successfully and it needed a lot of wiring which I did myself, thanks to you!

Another very informative video. Thanks for sharing.

I have the same old wiring setup, I am setting up mine and was wondering you have a r to rc red jumper. What do you do with the jumper on the new plate? The instruction say if you have a r and rc jumped to remove the jumper on the new plate, I see you didn't do that. Am I missing something? Thanks....

I have a orange wire where does that go

[Headnsouth]

If you don't have the C wire check that you have a blue wire in both locations. Had to connect my blue wire to the common on both devices. Powered up.

If you're watching this video, please take the time to level the backplate and attach it to the wall with the included anchors and two screws - it will ensure that the thermostat is secure and properly installed.

In my unit, it won't allow me to remove one of the wires. It seems to be stuck and I don't want to break this little flimsy plate. How can I release the wire?

[marisolhernandez]

I tried this and it didn’t work. I called a professional and he said that we popped a fuse because we allowed the RED wire to touch another one. Replaced the fuse and it worked. Lesson learned….don’t let the red wire touch another one.

Does this thermostat have an audible "clicking" sound when it turns on? Also, can the screen be turned off completely?

[russellhacker]

I installed mine and it's working perfectly. My questions are: is the "Differential" setting the difference between what the actual room temp is compared to what the stat is reading or, an offset temp where it has to drop that differential setting before activating the furnace? Also, is there no backup battery if we lose power or does being connected to the net mean we we don't need it?

[paufrancisco]

Is there a way to connect additional sensor for this?

[MarvelvsCapcom]

Do you need to turn off power to the furnace as well or just the air conditioner?

[JohnTheManMythAndLegend]

I have an old Honeywell thermostat that has an S2 wire…google says it’s the indoor/outdoor temperature sensor. Where would that go on the thermostat?

[chilton]

Is circulate feature for fan less running time than auto?

[Yourmama]

Wow great video. I had to buy a Honeywell c wire adapter on Amazon I was told some Menards carry them too. I only had 4 wires coming out of living room wall. I cut and stripped all 4 wires to create less bulk as there is hardly any room for wire storage to get the cover plate snapped in. I still gotta hook up the adapter still, doesn’t look to bad

Thanks for the video. I do not have a Base plate. How can I install it without a base plate?
