    Q:will this work for my forced air furnace?

    Answer This Question

    A:  No. This is for electric baseboard and some electric wall mounted heaters.

    A:  Most people don’t have 120 volt line voltage running to their residential forced air furnace. Hydronic heating more likely. A lot of times forced air residential is controlled by a 24 volt thermostat. You need to look into which you have. You should research it out more online. http://www.youtube.com/w/Enr8G4TSAks 24 volt wiring video. Some have more or less wires. https://www.google.com/search?q=120+volt+thermostat+wiring+pic&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&hl=en-us&client=safari#imgrc=RgN84y8sUV9FkM 120 volt wiring pic. Good luck and practice safety. If you feel you need more assistance call a licensed mechanical contractor in your area.

    Q:I am trying to control a small space heater in a small area within a short temperature range. The built in thermostat is not sensitive enough for my application. I am trying to maintain temp 37°C +/- 2° (95°F - 102°F - target temp = 98.6°F). Can this thermostat be set to 95-100°F and be expected to run line current to maintain this range?

    A:  No. According to the manual, the thermostat will read/display up to 140 deg F, but the high set point is only 86Deg F. Below is from the instruction manual. Display range: 32°F to 140°F (0°C to 60°C) Display resolution: 1°F (0.5°C) Setpoint range: 40°F to 86°F (5°C to 30°C) Setpoint interval: 1°F (0.5°C) Storage: -4°F to 120°F (-20°C to 50°C)

    A:  I just looked at mine and it will only go up to 86F. So if you are looking for 95F-102F, it looks like it won't do that.

    by|Jun 8, 2020

    A:  Hi Steve, it cannot run up to that temperature, the highest it will go up to is 86F therefore you will need a different thermostat with a higher range. Contact the pro desk for better help or call us at 855-223-3887.

      A:  If you don't understand the instructions contact Cadet/Honeywell customer service.

      by|May 30, 2020

        A:  You should have received a users manual with the thermostat. It will explain everything you need to know about programming the thermostat. If you have misplaced the manual, there is a link on the product page for the thermostat on Home Depots site that you can download and print.

        Q:Do I remove or replace the baseboard's end-cap thermostat? I installed the Cadet Softheat 59-inch 1000-watt 240V hydronic baseboard heater, with the "EBKN Series Double-Pole Integral 22 Amp End Cap Thermostat". We want to upgrade to a wall-mount programmable thermostat. Do I remove that end-cap piece, and if so, do I need to replace it with something else? Or maybe do I just leave the end-cap thermostat turned fully ON so that the wall unit can control the heater?

        Answer This Question

        A:  You can't keep both controls. When I installed mine I had to rewire the unit. If you have a unit with a control, the wall thermostat will replace that. I don't know if you have a blank end-cap to replace it with, but if you don't, you could probably just take out the control on the end-cap you have and it will just show a small hole. I bought a high gauge electrical in wall line and let one of the two wires go to the wall thermostat and the other come back from the wall thermostat. That way your just running one high gauge wire to your wall thermostat. Does that make since to you. Your just kind of splicing this thermostat between the normal wiring that comes out of your wall from your circuit box. From the wall, one of the 240v wires will go to your baseboard and the other will go to and from the wall thermostat to your baseboard. High power baseboard heaters take two hot wires, thus the 240v. The power will only work when the Wall Thermostat is in operation. Hope that helps.

          A:  If you don't have the end cap that came with the heater then you can leave it on max temperature so it stays ON always, that way the wall thermostat would control it, you could also purchase the white end cap part# 220000.

            Q:How does this Thermostat attach to the wall

            A:  It is attached to the mounting screw holes of an electric box such as one that you would normally use for a switch or receptacle. You will need the elec box to contain the elec wires.

            by|Aug 31, 2019

            A:  Mine attached to the existing electrical box in the wall. No problem.

              A:  I have three of these. I had to make a hole in the wall for all three. You might not have to, but the wiring comes directly out the back. You have to be careful with wiring that has a lot of power flowing thru them. I didn't want mine mashed against the wall, thus the indention, which actually became a cutout of the back of the area where the thermostat was attached. It isn't make to go flush with the wall. You can use longer screws and put washers on the back of the screws before inserting them into the wall. That keeps it from being flush but if your not worried about that, you won't have to make a hole. Hope this helps.

                A:  Hello William, The thermostats back plate will attach to the electrical gang box that is previously installed.

                  A:  You take the cover off and you will then see holes for mounting. Actually quite simple and since the unit isn’t heavy you don’t need really strongly anchored screws. Just pop the cover off. You’ll see the mounting holes

                        Q:Can I wire this thermostat to a outlet to control space heater?

                        Answer This Question

                        A:  No. This is to be used as a single source wall mount unit to control electric heaters that are hard wired in a circuit to heat an area. To regulate the area temperature when it is supplying current to the heat source it pulses the current and depending on temperature rise demand it phases it for efficiency. It is not a standard on/off control. This might damage other types of heaters.

                              A:  Yes it is possible however it will affect other outlets on that circuit. The only way that you could do it to control a space heater is if you have a dedicated circuit.(if that is the only outlet on that circuit)
