Is it possible to calibrate the temperature reading? I know ours is reading hotter than it is.

i don't think so!! i really like this product but i wanted both parts to be battery charged and not just the parent one! ups!

I have two of these and they are off by more than 10 degrees. I contacted Honeywell about it and they said that there's no way to calibrate it, so take them back and replace them. The replacements are just as bad as the originals, so I am switching to another brand.

Nothing in the directions indicates that you can calibrate this unit other than to check it against another thermometer that is known to be correct.

Unfortunately, there is no calibrated thermostat; there are two adjustment knobs, neither with very specific markings. I have mine set on the minimum for both knobs to keep a 100 sf room in the mid 70s when it's already in the mid 60s. I really like it, though; it's not space-greedy and cools down very quickly for storage.

This thermometer is not recalibrate-able. The accuracy of this unit is +/- 1-2 degrees. You can expect a 1-2 degree variance.

Mine seems to be reading really high, maybe 30% over what I think it should be. I wish there was a way to adjust.

The dial reads 480 degrees at maximum. I believe the actual temperatures are higher than what is recorded on the dial.

I didn't try. I'm not sure it even does read out Ferenheit temps. I just converted the F temps I wanted to C to acheive the desired results. Sorry...

Mine gets real hot! Have to be very careful to calibrate each time....so don't know what to tell you.

Hi Harold - there must be a defect then. I set mine for 345 and it stops at that - it will fluctuate a few degrees down when in use - but nothing major. I would contact them and have it replaced

Eric:Like you, I was unable to get a direct read from either of my 2 remote sensors. It, supposedly, will use the readings to "average" the temps, but like you, I would love to see a direct read-out on the face of the stat!Sorry I couldn't help you . . .Mike

I dont keep a thermometor for the hot side, just the cool side. I find the readings in this device accurate enough.Sorry for the late response!

My house is at 500ft. The watch reads 1457. I haven't calibrated it in a while but the temp is the same as the last time it was calibrated. It's not what you want.

If by "calibrate" you mean manually set the thermometer to a specific temperature, then the answer is "no". On the other hand, if you mean by "calibrate" to check out against a preset temperature, then "yes" you could do this..e.g., immersing the probe in an ice bath.

Hello,You are able to change the temperature, I beleive the item is the same just named differently.RegardsRegards

Hi Alex,That does mean that it can be calibrated. We also have a video to walk you through the process see it here. http://youtu.be/uN5Xrm3CPEw

I saw no way to calibrate it, and contacted the manufacturer when my chlorine reading was way off. They did not mention calibration. I tried 2 kits and gave up after my chlorine reading was way off on both.
