Does it come with flow sensor - meaning does it detect when the ac/furnace is on or it runs continuously until the set temperature is reached?

No, It is just a fan with cute remote control.I wished it detect the temperature and turn on off automatically. but it didnot work that way.I tested several time, but this system did not detect temperature and turn on automatically.One reason I kept this, is this fan is not noisy, and on/off with remote control pad.

It turns on when the supply side temp is higher that the out side / room temp by the setting you make on the unit.( in heat mode ,opposite in cold mode ) then turns off.Had mine for over a year and still works great. I have a 2 story home and use it to draw hot air to a distant down stars room. Some times will draw hot air from upstairs down when the heater is not on. kind of balances the whole home temp.

Yes, you can set it on "heat" and set a minimum set point for the fan to come on. I use the low speed for winter heat. I have the fan come on when the duct temp reaches 68 degrees. It runs until the furnace cycles off and the duct cools down below 68 degrees. Then it automatically shuts off. In the summer I set it on the cool mode and have the fan on high. I also use a different set point for that. The sensor works well. My only MAJOR complaint is that the summer fan is tooooooooo small. With all this technology the summer fan dosen't have enough guts to cool my bedroom. The winter is good, the summer leaves me complaining. So, it all depends on what season you really want this for the most. Good luck. Yes, you can set it on "heat" and set a minimum set point for the fan to come on. I use the low speed for winter heat.

This unit provides several options. It can be set to run when both (a) the furnace / AC is running and (b) AND the temperature reaches certain presets for hot or cold. It can also be set to run continuously at three fan speed levels.

sound like some one did not read the instructions , I never use the remote except to set up the unit first time,works total automatically . you can use the remote but why ? read the instructions .
2055262
No. there is nothing automatic about this device. It works remotely not automatically....do not waste your time and or money on this device...it is worthless.......

It senses temperature. You can set to come on at a below your setting, or a above settings. In other words, if you have its set at 80 degrees on the winter setting, when your furnace kicks on and the airflow reaches 80 degrees or above the fan kicks on. The opposite true for the summer mode....my opinion it works better as a booster for the furnace, but It does help some in the summer for the A/C.

No it does not but I leave it on auto and it seems to work well on that setting. You can actually hear it adjust the flow based on how clean the air is in the room.

When installed properly & if unit is operating as it should, the sensor turns on the the heating element when the pipe goes below a certain temperature & warms the pipe to prevent freezing.

You can set the thermostat so that the fan will automatically turn on (or off) when the room temperature rises above (or below) the set temperature. [It normally displays the current room temperature - except when you are Setting it to a start temperature].

The booster fan runs continuously when it is turned on. In my situation, having continuous operation when my furnace wasn't running created a negative pressure on my HVAC ductwork, drawing in cold air via my air-to-air exchange system (defeated the whole purpose of my purchase). If this unit would have cycled on/off with my furnace, I would probably still have it (I returned it).

You turn it on and it's good to go...you control it with the remote control. There's a high and a low setting. Once it reaches the max. temp within both of those settings, it will shut off and come back on, just like your furnace. The temperature is a digital panel on the front, so you know what temp the room is at. Very handy unit.

Yes it does. The unit cycles off when it reaches the temperature you set it for. When the temperature falls below the level you set it for, then the unit cycles back on. I love this unit - so I ordered another one and two of them.

The answer lies in another question. Is your furnace turning on and off a the appropriate times? If it is then the thermostat is doing what it is designed to do, control room temperature. The one you have chosen is very sensitive, plus or minus one degree. It is possible that the thermostat does not see any major changes in temperatures, since the wall the thermostat is mounted on, is a thermal mass that can buffer the actual air temperature variations in the room. Try placing a good thermometer next to the thermostat and see if there is a difference in what they are reading.

I looked it over. I use it in the winter on a small heater in my generator house. It plugs in an outlet and the thing sticking it the air on the photo tells the unit the temp.. There is no other sensor. I do like it for what I use it for.

There is a switch that turns the gas valve on. After that the thermostat controls switching the furnace on and off depending on the setting.

I do not think it does. I will also add that the unit I have has a very narrow temperature control range. While it maintains a constant thermostat reading, say 68 degrees, my HVAC cycles on and off repeatedly during the hour. I can turn the unit off and the indoor temp will take quite a while to actually rise or lower by one degree so the sensor seems to be triggering within tenths of a degree. This is too narrow a range for me and I am looking for a different thermostat that isn't quite so sensitive to temp changes.

Mine did, but you'll never need it once you set the digital thermostat. Oh, and it works just as well as the 1200 unit I bought for my house a few years ago

No, the remote does not indicate the actual temperature at the base unit, nor what the temperature setting is on the base unit, on the remote that I have. It only allows you to increase/decrease the setting. But it is very reliable and easy to learn what your setting is if you program it. We listen for the click of the relay at the base unit to know if the AC or furnace is going to come on.

Yes it does, your can set the time the fan runs once motion is detected. It can run continuously at a low CFM which you can set or for a fixed time period at maximum CFM. There are two user defined switches which gives you a varied combination of on-time versus CFM rating.

It has a thermostat. It goes on and off depending on the ambient temperature.

Yes...When the furnace is tripped on by the thermostat it will trigger the water to flow through the humidifier. The humidifier does not contain its own fan.

Actually it controls the furnace, not A/C. But other than that, did you get any solid lights? Mine gave no lights, solid or blinking, and I had 24v.In my case, it was one of the relays that wasn't transferring the 24v to the blower.
