I only have an oil heated furnace; no air conditioning. Does this work with an oil heater?

yup but you need to power it from another source if you only got two wire , depending on the furnace you may have 4 . i had the battery powered stats that did fine on a two wire but wifi needs more power so i got a transformer to run the stat . Elk TRG2440 24VAC, 40 VA AC Transformer with PTC Fuse my furnace had no point to put a third wire for common power "c" terminal so i went and wired stat to the aux supply plugged it in a remote outlet and ran another set wires to stat on wall all set and running fine if you get this set up the tech line at h-well can give you the terminals to mount your 2 new wires the ins booklet had no diagram to run a aux power source c n rc for the new power and remove jumper r n y for the furnace wire pair call to make sure very helpfull Coleman Cable 09632 CL2 Bulk Thermostat Cable, 18-Gauge 2-Conductor 100-Feet used

I have a Coleman propane gas heater (no a/c unit) in the cabin. I have already run a common wire since they ran 5 strand wire. Will this work,my router is one story up.

Sure. The only requirement is that the wire going from your thermostat to you boiler or furnace has to have 3 strands. If it only has 2, which is quite common, a third strand or new were with 3 strands has to be run.

I use it on a fuel oil furnace, hot-water baseboard, and it works fine during the winters here in Maine.

Yes, I'm running an oil fired boiler with 2 zone recirculators to hot water baseboards. I have 2 of the FocusPro5000 thermostats, one for each zone. They seem to be working ok, been installed about 2 months now. I am mad of the deceptive description of the AC and battery power option on the FocusPro 5000, you cannot power this thing with 24V AC with a 2-wire thermostat system.

It is designed for multi stage furnaces . I don't think it would work with simple baseboard heat. I would go with a basic thermostat. But I'm not positive. You may want to Google basic thermostats..

Quite. We recently insulated the three-bedroom, two-bath area of our home, and this one little dude keeps us all plenty warm all night on the second to last setting and lots of blankets! Prior to the insulation, I am certain that we would not have had the same result.It does a great job in our 600 square foot great room, but we keep the furnace set to 63 or 64F as well. It's most definitely saved us oil, and it truly does not burn up the same amount of electricity that other appliances do.

I have gas furnace heating baseboard radiators and it works fine. Absolutely no noise.

Yes. I have this thermostat on both just a furnace and a furnace with central air. Works great.

This thermostat should work for heat only, cool only, or both. You can find the installation manual at this link: https://customer.honeywell.com/resources/techlit/TechLitDocuments/69-0000s/69-1920EFS.pdf

yes. it has 3 options: low heat, medium heat, and full power (low + medium on), and a mechanical thermostat. so, if you put it on a timer when turned on, it should work. one important thing to watch out for, though- heaters use a lot of power, so you'd want a timer that can handle that kind of service load. i think most timers are designed for lights and other low power loads.

No Eric - you need to but a plug in thermostat be careful of your electrical system - I burned out the circuit using this heater and had to re wire that room and put it on it's own breaker - my house is 100 yrs old and still had some hidden nob & tube wiring which I feel contributed to the problem - ever since the new wire is in no problems

I used it on gas-forced air furnace wo AC. My opinion would be that it will not work on a heat pump since there is no suppliment heat switch to use.

Locate your oil pan and apply a magnet, if oil pan is aluminum, magnet won't stick. if it does stick, just attach heater to oil pan. I purchased a outdoor plug-in timer ($10.00) home depot. Plug heater into timer and timer into grounded receptacle. This product works well. regards

Ground!Be sure that your unit doesn't have a low voltage circuit that's available. Perhaps you'll have to run additional wire to the thermostat from the unit, but the extra unit may not be necessary, I was happily using it as directed until discovering that voltage was already on my furnace.Pays to check.Dee

Absolutely you need a small heater. I use a tiny electric heater that is thermostat controlled.

Sounds like a wiring fault to me (perhaps a 120V heater hooked up to 220V?). I've used this thermostat with an oil-filled heater with excellent results, and with other, non-oil-filled heaters, with no funny business of any kind.

If you currently have a 2 wire heat only thermostat in your RV, this thermostat will work regardless of furnace manufacturer. It installs easily too.

The GND (ground) from this does not connect to the thermostat. The thermostat is grounded through the original wiring to your furnace. Look online for instructions on how to use this with I assume a wireless thermostat.
