Just moved and have an old mercury type thermostat. I only have heat (no air) and it looks like it is baseboard heating only. Will this work?

I assume it is electric baseboard heat in which case it is probably controlled by a relay. If you have a voltmeter or multimeter you can check the voltage at the thermostat wire. If it is approximately 24 volts then it will probably work.

I think this can replace your thermostat. You didn't say if the system was electric or gas (hot water) heating but the heavy current is probably being handled by a system relay. You can download the manual and installation document from Honeywell for additional information, and/or check with a heating contractor to be sure.

You would have to read the manual or call Honeywell for help. We use this thermostat for heat pumps but it also works for regular gas heat/electric air conditioning. We are using these for about 6 different HOA heat pumps and they work very well (been installed about 4 years).

Hello Darlene, I used a "Honeywell Manual Electric Baseboard Thermostat," $16. bucks at Amazon. It seems to work well, but I'll warn you, the instructions are confusing. If you are unsure about wiring it up, call an electrician. I'm really pleased with the heater, by the way. Regards, Lee

Yes, the thermostat will work with all three heat settings. Im not sure but it may also work with the fan setting too. Hope this helped....

You would have to check with the MFG. I would think not as they sell aftermarket thermostats for their specific units. I mounted one on the end of a unit in a small mud room and one on a wall in the basement. Plus this type of heat takes time to both heat and cool a room so using a programmed tunit may not make complete sense

Yes you will need a thermostat. I used the one that was on the old unit and its working just fine.

No you would need to purchase the thermostat separately and it mounts on the end of the baseboard.

Yes, but only up to the max rating of the thermostat. I think it is rated for 3500 watts. I have two electric baseboard units hooked up to one thermostat. Do not overload the thermostat. Total rating of the baseboard units must be less than max load of the thermostat. The instructions will tell you how to do it. Dave

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. I have a hydronic heating system which is exactly as you described it: a gas-fired boiler with a water pump that delivers 180-degree hot water to various baseboard "radiator" to heat the house. I am happy with the performance of this thermostat.

as long as the temp slide and switches are in the same places and have the exact same functions then yes they are both analog thermostats and should mate with the board up in the unit. be sure to turn off the breaker going to the unit in question before you touch th old thermostso you don't short and blow the upper control board while changing out the thermostat and wires accidentally touch. good luck.

i think it should work, but remember it does not use household electricty, the heating unit creats electricty. and that is what opens and close the thermostat

Based on the quick start guide the unit will work with a system that is Heat Only or Cool Only. There is a selection for only heat or air.

There should be a label on your baseboard heater where the connections are made specifying the watts/amperage. Look on either end of the unit and remove the cover screw to open it.

I purchased this unit with the same thermostat that you are asking about. My eletrician installed this for me this past Feb, and he said this particular thermostat is to be installed on the unit itself (and not the wall). That's the configuration we have now, so yes, if you installed this baseboard heater near the floor, you would have to bend down to adjust the temperature. It works well though.

I don't know. It wouldn't work for me, I had to have a faulty board replaced in the control system as well as a new thermostat.

I'm pretty sure this unit is unable to do so as it is primarily a baseboard heating thermostat. It doesn't have a cool setting just the setting of the temp buttons

I don't see why not. My heating system is baseboard hot water and I have a thermostat for each zone. You probably have more than one zone for the radiant floor heating which is similar to baseboard. I hope this helped!
