Will this work with a simple, steam heat-only, two wire, oil furnace? Need something that can connect to wireless indoor sensors and this looks perfect.

Hi this wont work with just two wires It has a third power wire, your electrician might be able to help with that. The installation manual is available on line if you search for it.

It would definitely work with your indoor sensor. Also double check the wirering diagram for the equipment you are trying to run oil furnace will work just fine water heaters etc do more research for application.

The answer is a qualified yes. All of the wireless accessories require an additional power wire to be connected to the thermostat. They call it the common wire I think it is 24VDC. Traditional thermostats will not have this wire. When I did the install, there was cable running between my furnace and my thermostat that had 2 unused wires. I was able to connect the blue one to the one of the connectors on my furnace and then the wireless accessories worked.

I believe so but since I only have 1 HVAC, I suggest you research manufacturer specs to make sure. Just note that, as mentioned in my review, this product drops from WIFI so it is NOT as dependable as I wanted it to be. I find myself having to reset this often because whenever I want to control remotely, it is "disconnected"...which defeats the purpose of having it. You mileage may vary. I did try 4 different WIFI access points just to rule out incompatibility issues.

It would be nice to have an aswer to this question. I could imagine a device that works without a third-party web site, where you connect directly to the thermostat, but I would be surprised if this device had that ability. If someone can verify that it does, I will buy one, otherwise I'm going to wait.

Probably will work, depending on the heating system. I am not at all familiar with RV heat systems. This needs a 24 volt common wire from the furnace controller, then the 2 wires to control the system. Seems kind of overkill, though. This has features for remote access from the internet ( through your wifi router, only if you have this), and programmable 7-day heat/cool cycles.

I can't say definately no, but it certainly doesn't seem to be made for that purpose. I have 2 thermostats for each zone in my house. Also, I've found that there are times when you want just the furnace to run, times that you want just the heat pump to run and other times when you want them both to run. That would be difficult with only one thermostat controlling them both.

this thermostat requires 2 wires from the control unit for power- no batteries. The "thermostat" unit is really a touchscreen control unit- all the real brains are in the control module, which is best located close to the furnace- but can technically be anywhere you get good reception for the wireless units (be aware though that add-ons like sensors need to be wired into the control module- so plan ahead).

i wired mine as follows:1&2 = load know that 1 & 2 connect to a single wire of the heat/cold source. only one wire from heat will connect to 1 & 2. u only cut one wire of the load(heat supply) and connect to 1 & 2. 3&4 = power5&6 = sensorworx4me, lucku u

You need to have one of the multi-zone controllers and receivers attached for it to work correctly. If the HVAC systems are in different locations, then you need separate controllers that have the builtin receiver. I have the 3-zone unit (only using 2 zones currently) and it works great! All thermostats must be on a separate channel and "associated" with a separate zone. They cannot be on the same zone. These run on Honeywells proprietary Redlink protocol and are not compatible with other wireless protocols. It is a very solid system though... I did a lot of research before I took the leap. It's Pro stuff. Hope this helps. You need to have one of the multi-zone controllers and receivers attached for it to work correctly.

This will not work with Honeywell WiFi stats, but is made to be used with their RedLink thermostats only. Any Honeywell model number with "WF" in it is not compatible with this sensor, but can use a wired C7189U sensor.

It doesn't look to me like that model thermostat supports RedLink communication protocol required by this wireless sensor. Go to http://www.forwardthinking.honeywell.com/related_links/thermostats/03-00005.pdf for a comparison of features of the thermostats. The Redlink models can connect to a router for internet access but require a separate Redlink gateway device at the router. The wireless models connect directly to the router.

this may work for that. Another very easy alternative is to use a regular z-wave thermostat, so you don't get too hot in the room. You will need a 24V power supply for the thermostat, and then just google which two connecitons for your low-voltage wires from your fireplace. Fairly easy, and gives automatic temperature control for the room.

I answered this from mu iPhone, but I'd like to add something. If the area of the heated area is so large that two thermostats are need, I would suggest splitting the areas and have one thermostat for each area. There is no way you can have two thermostats for the same floor. That would be like having two thermostats for the same furnace. :)

No, this thermostat requires constant power - you will need a 24V "common" wire connected to the thermostat's "C" terminal. You would either need to run additional wires from your furnace to this thermostat, or there is an adapter you may be able to install into your current setup, but I'm not sure if you can make it work with only two wires. Either way you will need to modify your current configuration to include the common wire. See http://www.amazon.com/Venstar-Add-A-Wire-Wire-Adapter/dp/B0013LVDQA

It is not wireless, it has a sensor that can be remote from the unit, but it is connected by wire to the unit. It does report room temperature, like any thermostat. Not sure what type of alerts you are thinking of, I am not aware of any.

Not sure!! Try this #800-468-1502 Or this website http://DIYthermostats.honeywell.comI"m guessing but a 2 wire system would only be for heating OR cooling not both.

Hi GE are generally very good if you worked there several items that meet these functions and are very good Here I sent you one that can work better Greetings INSTEON 2843-222 Wireless Open/Close Sensor
