Is this thermostat an auto/heat/cool or just heat/cool?
1861774
The system functions are heat. cool. off. The fan is auto or off. I am very pleased with my thermostats.

It is automatic. If the temperature you set is higher than ambient, it goes into heat mode and that circuit is energized. If it is lower, it goes into cooling mode. There is an adjustable cooling time delay. The indicator light near the word cooling flashes during the delay, and becomes constant after the delay has timed out.

Not at all specific. There are two knobs but no thermostat. It's basically on/off and fan speed hi/lo

I also use this thermostat with an outdoor sensor that works thru my heat pump. I've set up the temp. reading to just indicate the outdoor temperature as opposed to controlling the heat pump settings. I also have an oil system.Oil is primary during the cold weather and heat pump for air conditioning. The sensor reading works well.

Ken:Honeywell is using a generic photo for all of the FocusPro thermostats on their site. The ones that you can program for daily difference in use have three buttons at the bottom; the one you are ordering here (model 5000) only has two: fan on/auto and heat/cool/off.As I said in my review, if you don't need the program capability, then this one will do quite nicely.Brian

Yes, you can. There are 4 tabs along the top of the screen. Under the System tab, your options are: Heat; Cool; Off. Unfortunately, the auto changeover capability is not controlled here. Rather, you have to go to the Menu tab and drill way down, as follows: Menu/Preferences/Advanced Preferences/Heating and Cooling System Changeover. When you get to this screen, your options are: Manual; Automatic. This is where you control the auto changeover between heat and cool. My guess is that Honeywell has buried this capability so deep that many owners have not found it. My recommendation to Honeywell would be to put a checkbox right in the System tab to allow auto changeover or not, at the owner's discretion. Yes, you can.

Depends on your definition of 'programmable'. It can be set one of two ways: "On" - fan is always on, "Auto" - fan only runs when heat/cool is on. Those are the only fan settings.

I think the auto thermostat just speeds up the fan when under load. I wouldn't worry about it.

It has a thermostat. Once it reaches temperature it stops heating and starts heating as it cools down again. So far it has worked well. Only used it a few times.

I can think of only two possibilities here: 1. The wiring is not correct (or there is somehow a short across the temperature sensor/relay), or 2. The fan is set to ON instead of AUTO. Wiring is the culprit in a high percentage of this kind of problem, but it is possible that the thermostat's circuit board could be defective.

Fan runs all the time. Thermostat regulates temperature in heating and AC mode.

YES. This Thermostat will automatically switch your system from cool to heat or heat to cool depending on the temperature in your home. It is also capable of controlling a "heat pump" system (a system where the compressor unit outside your home is run to produce both cooling/air-conditioning and heating).

I think I recall seeing that also. But the thermostat is totally digital. I'm not sure if has pilot light I'm not home or I would take a look. I don't recall lighting one and it does everything automatically. I just set the temperature and forget it. This is a great heater.

It has several hook up instructions that come with it. It should work as a thermostat, but may not have "full" functionality: i.e. the ability to automatically switch between heat and air. Just be certain to read ALL instructions as there are a couple of switches that you may need to turn to the on or off position depending on what you are trying to do.

There is just an on and off button, no heat settings. There is also no auto off feature, you need to make sure to shut if off. It does work great though!

It's a very basic thermostat without scheduling features. There is a single press option to decrease the heat temp setting by 5 degrees as an energy saving mode.

I have a heat only system too with window A/C units. It works fine controlling just the heat. Great thermostat have had no problems.
