Does it need a line of site or will i work through a wall? I ask because there are differing answers to this question.

No it does not need a line of site. I live in a mobile home and I was in bedroom at one end of house with the remote pointing at back wall (opposite of thermostat), and with thermostat located in middle of home approximately 30ft away the device worked flawlessly numerous times. So to answer your question, it does work through walls and no you do not need a direct line of site to opperate

It needs to be a little bit away from the wall. For me, I'm using an extension cord that the cord comes out the side and has flat profile. Then I can push it all the way to the wall.

Do not see any problem, you will have to put a heat protection at the point where you go through the wall. may need to check with building code requirements for that.

Your best bet is to contact wall control directly. Then you will be sure you have what you need, they are great to work with. Good luck.

It is not designed for that. It is designed to install in a barrier up to 2 inches thick and most walls are 4 1/2 inches thick minimum, so you'd have to do some custom work to make it work, as Guidera48 describes.

As long as you secure it properly its should work... A wall is the ideal spot however

I would check with a professional carpenter if you have or will be putting in a wall unit. It's a different project from what I took on as a DIY.

I think it depends more on the number of walls that has to go through and how far away from your hub it is located for me I have a 2500 square-foot house and my hub did not reach the far corners so that's when I'm using it for

If you mean an open loop, probably not out of the box, because there are no hardware to fix it to walls. If used outside, they provide anchors to bury in the ground, so it could be used as a fence, but will be flimsy, without additional fixtures.

I see no reason. If fact I installed mine through the wall with no problems.

Hi, the back of the unit is not finished so you will have to use it against a wall. Thank you so much!

The edges of the structure are NOT finished, so it would most likely need to be up against a wall

I haven't gone up a wall but put it under my floor. Laid it down and it takes a pretty thick coat of leveling compound. I imagine that if you lay it under mortar it should do well.

You bet works great since you have cross lines. An x and y axis visible on the wall or walls if positioned into a corner. I use mine at least twice a week at work

I wouldn't recommend it for this. I had consistency problems (on and off and on and off) with a 30 foot connection that was line of sight (no obstructions). I would imagine that walls at 25 ft. would create problems for you.

Not really. It needs line of sight. It can go though windows with no issue though.

Yes, the signal will go through walls. It does not have to be a line of sight. It needs fresh batteries often to keep it working all the time. I estimate I am putting in new AA batteries once every couple of months. David
