Control?
on November 22, 2024
Posted by: Kate1982
We just got these installed in our Retail store and I can't figure out how to make a permanent change to our temperature setting. Do I need to download the app, is that the only way to really control them? Help were sweating!

Hi Kate1982, thank you for reaching out to us. You can override the schedule temporarily or permanently, all this can be done directly from the thermostat's screen without the app. Change the set point and the select 'Temporary Hold' or 'Permanent Hold' and press Done. If you select the temporary hold, you can set a hold until time when the thermostat will resume the schedule. While using a hold, you can resume the schedule by pressing 'Cancel Hold'. Visit our Support Center link at the top of the page for ways to get in touch and someone would be happy to help guiding you through the thermostat features.
works perfectly. This is the second such unit in my house. The forst one is working well too. The app is great as it does exactly what I need it to do.
I'm a builder and installed two of these in a house with two HVAC systems. The setup was cumbersome, but manageable. Within less than one month, one of the units stopped reading the temperature correctly. It was off by about 10 degrees. We previously had non wifi enabled thermostats installed, and they worked perfectly. This morning, not yet a year later, (10 months almost to the day) the second one has gone bad. The temperature was off on that one by the same amount, about 10 degrees. In a vacation home, if the heat is on low, this can lead to frozen pipes if the discrepancy it this bad. After two bad units, I wouldn't trust Honeywell with this kind of need again.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hi Reflections, we are truly sorry to hear about this. This is not what you should expect. Our thermostats use the ambient and radiant temperature for the indoor temperature display, so this reading may differ from conventional thermometers. To ensure the thermostat is displaying the correct indoor temperature, please verify there is insulation behind the thermostat wall plate, that there are no drafts within the wall, that the thermostat is not exposed to direct sunlight and that it is distanced from electronics such as TV’s and lights. It is possible to adjust the indoor temperature readings from -3 to +3 degrees form the installer setup.
Fails to reconnect with WIFI after 8 months of use

Three of these units were installed in my home as a part of a three zone system in December of last year. After a brief WIFI outage yesterday one unit will not reconnect to the network, it’s the closest unit to the router. Still functions as a thermostat without WIFI, but I bought it for the remote access functions. 8 months of service is too short. I have a popular third party brand in another home that have been going strong for eight years.

Not sure why I was requested to comment here. I purchased my Honeywell WI-FI thermostats several years ago and they don't look like the picture. That being said I bought and installed them several years ago and love them. I have a cabin in the mountains of Pa and a home in the suburbs of Philadelphia. I am able to turn my temp up and down remotely depending on where I am planning to be. I can also keep an eye on my temp in each location making sure my heating, cooling systems are working.
