My friend has a newly installed Venstar T5800 on her vacation home. She monitors the heat remotely during the winter months. She recently noticed that the system status was 'inactive' (or something of that nature). Concerned that her furnace was not...

We need to, about 25% of the time, when power is disrupted. Most of the time, it resets without any troubles.

I, too, tested the low temperature alert on mine by putting the unit in the freezer. It worked just fine and the WiFi signal was strong enough to get out of the freezer and find its way to my router. I didn't leave the unit in there very long. I think the only way to find out how it will work for long term usage in a freezer is to give it a try. Batteries don't work well at low temps but you can monitor the battery status remotely. Good luck - I hope it works for you.

I have an M-series Mitsubishi split system, not the same one you mention here, but in the same family and the unit work fine. I also have the wifi option with the totaljconnect app so I can monitor the 4 systems I have, as well as change temps on the fly for each. It has worked beautifully for 2 years. I have them cooling a server room where temperature control is vital.

Directly, no; indirectly yes. You'll need to contact the mfg tech support. They mentioned something about an alert service for a fee. The RadStat app allows control such as off/on, temp setting, home/away--normal thermostat actions. I think for the alarm (such as to note whether your heat has failed in the winter) you need to have the stat monitored, and I think some alarm companies do that too. There is chatter on their website forums about alarm.com.

I use temperature monitoring on a multi-sensor and it provides updates every 20-30 minutes, I believe, unless there is a serious change in temperature.

This unit does not have a T-stat. It has 3 levels of heat output where 1, 2 or all 3 panels activate according to your setting. As a back up heat system that is all that is required.

I suspect there may be a problem with the t-stat or a loose connection in the wiring at the t-stat. It is supposed to handle 3000w @ 240v. They do get warm while in service but I've never had one smoke. I do not have that much load on any of my units but I do have a programable model with 3000w load with no problem. I had two t-stats stacked one above the other and that didn't work because the lower unit gave off enough heat to affect the upper. I relocated one and everything is now find.

I have added AC clients to mine, and there does not seem to be a heat issue, at first it did run a bit warmer than my abgn-Pro APs, but not to a level that concerned me. It has worked flawlessly before and after the firmware updates. In my situation the units are even covered for aesthetic reasons and still no issues whatsoever.

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 personally don't have this device anymore, however, If my memory serves me right I believe so. On the other hand, I would not recommend this product as it's not entirely reliable a lot of resetting from what I recall. It may have just been a bad model but in any case for the money I would rather recommend to anyone looking to have wireless access to their thermostat to simply upgrade to the latest Honeywell Smart. It's really reliable and has Wifi built in. No need for exterior sensor as this picks up your local temperature from the web. I've had one now for close to a year and I must say I love it.

That unit may just need to be reset. Contact Enphase directly and get their advice. Thanks ML SOLAR

You could kill the power to your HVAC system temporarily and see if Honeywell emails you. Or open up the app after power is disabled and see what it does. I remember getting an email message every hour about no internet access to the stat. It depends how you setup the frequency of messages. I hope that helped

I enstalled an outlet out side so that the therostat is actually located out side. When system is running it is only warm at best, I used it for a High Energy Furnace water drain that was freezing up and backing up inside the furnace. Only run it when temp gets in the 30's and lower. I would think that having the thermostat inside would nulify the device.....

I think I read somewhere that, since the '9000' version is marked as 'Pro Install', you won't get support if you DIY it. Since the power comes from your furnace, if your furnace loses power, so does the thermostat, but it has nothing to control at that point anyway.

My thermostat touch screen also failed. I replaced the wall maounted unit (not the controller mounted at the furnace) and it now works fine. If you have a high efficiency system with multiple heating/cooling settings, you will need to program the thermostat. I didn't learn this until a later furnace tune up when I was told the system was using only the low load setting. The technician programed the thermostat.

I think you might need the next model up (with a W2 terminal) for your system: TH6220D: For up to 2 Heat/2 Cool systems

Yes. Certainly on the setpoint. On the heated ambient air the temperature it could vary up to -/+ 2° in my case. The unit is very sensitive. It has an adjustment for cycle time to control the temp deadband around the setpoint. Also, thermostat positioning will affect the temp variation.
