I have a thermostat that is powered by the wall and not by battery, will this work with my setup?

Yes, just make sure to install the C-wire. Then, the batteries will just function as backup

Lux Customer,Your setup will work effectively if you install the C-wire. The batteries are used for backup purposes.Thank You,Lux Technical Support

yes, battery is for backup only, good thermostat i had old model last for 15 years just replace newer model because i just installed central air, works graet

Yes you will need to install it where there is electrical in the frame of the wall. You cannot use an outlet and it is not battery operated This is not a problem if you are replacing a 220 V wall heater with this one. I replaced my baseboard heater with this one. If you are not familiar with electricity then you will need to hire an electrician.

If the existing thermostat just closes a low voltage circuit it should work. That's most two wire thermostats. The only other considerations are the minimum run time and the low & high set point. You can adjust the temp spread on this unit using jumpers inside it.

Yes the thermostat's batteries retain the its settings during power outages. These batteries run down in about 1 day unless external power is applied however. The power from the thermostat wiring must be supplemented from an external source. I ran an additional cable from the furnace for this purpose and the thermostat now operates an monitors temperature in my vacation house. I also have a "NEST" thermostat ($250 @ LOWES) as well which has more features and is able to run solely on the 2 existing thermostat wires in the wall.

Depends on how many wires , your voltage and wattage. This thermostat uses a two wire setup. It seems like you might have 4 in which case it wouldn't work. Maybe check out the Honeywell site for more specific information and the manual on it.

It has a battery for memory back up, but it runs off the C wire. Be sure your thermostat setup has a C wire.

If the batteries are dead the thermostat will not work. However the batteries last a very long time so change them on a yearly basis if you are concerned.

Yes. The thermostat is on a small circuit board -- easily reachable. A pair of wires comes from the solar panel -- cut that. Another pair goes to the fan. Cut that pair and connect to solar pair. Run free. Sam

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

Not at all - just place it over the existing thermostat and mount it directly to the wall.

This is a line voltage (110/220) thermostat. It won't work as replacement for a low voltage system.

Doubt it. Thermostats are low voltage. Cost would be high but you can use a step down transformer. In real life - just turn the stupid thing on or off!

Yes it will work. There are instrructiions with the unit. I even asked the local Electrial Supply Company. They said, "no problem." To purchase a wall mount and wire was (as I remembered) pretty incidental, under $50 including wire, junction box, thermostat. But I personally would have someone familair with electrical wiring to oversee or even do it for me.....It was just easier to use the integrated thermostat for my purposes, than run wire to where it was easy to adjust when entering the shop. Heck, it's only 7-8 steps further, and I leave it alone 75% of the time anyhow. Besides, I can always wire it later when I get extra cash for that budget.... Yes it will work.

I did not use the original thermostat that came with the unit, I used my wall mounted line thermostat.

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 not familiar with separate thermostats. This unit has a cord on it which is a 240 volt, 20 amp configuration like you would have on a 240 volt window ac. If you have some sort of separate thermostat that could supply power to this type of receptacle then it would work. The only thermostats I have installed are 24 volt. I hope that helps.

If your air and heating runs off your old thermostat then this should have the same wiring. I did go with this to replace a Coleman, so can't be much help.
