Timing on your video is quite excellent. One of my customers asked me to replace their old T stat with something newer with remote control capability. I chose the Honeywell 9000. Good to know I made the right decision.

I have been using two 9000’s for almost 5 years now and really like them. Currently have them connected to Alexa and working great.

Love your intros, your good vibes are contagious!

Have had experiences with several thermostats and Honeywell smart thermostats like the Prestige and 9000 work the best. They do a good job inserting a couple of extra cycles per hour to keep the temperate more consistent and the overcooling feature does a good job controlling high humidity. Some other brands will not overcool until the temperature goes above the setpoint with each cycle. Honeywell will keep it a couple of degrees cooler during periods of higher humidity if you enable overcooling. One thing mine lacks is any type of lockouts on the cooling and heating. If you say turn the AC down low with a temporary override. When the override expires it will turn the heat on right away if the temperature is below the heating setpoint. It will do this even it it's 80 degrees outside. Should have some type of delay at least when running in autochangeover mode. Same with heat. Lets say someone turns the heat up to 75 till 5 pm. When it goes back to schedule and the cooling is set to 74, it will turn the AC on to lower the temperature to 74 even if it's 20 degrees outside. C'mon Honeywell use some logic! I want a true set it and forget it with fail safes. I put my own lockouts so the heat can't run if it's above 65 and the AC won't run if it's below 50. Other than that no complaints.

We have a total connect tstat, visionpro 8000... got a great deal on it with a remote sensor a few years ago. Works great, no nonsense.

Looks like a sweet stat . . . I have the Sensi stat at our residence and cabin, works amazing.

Thank you for your reply. Went deeper into the settings and was able to find location to convert thermostat between Fahrenheit and Celsius.

Honestly I have a Nest and it's not too bad.. App seems like it was designed by a 2 year old but it's fully functional.. Was free through a program with our electric/gas company so I'm not complaining. Moving soon and plan on using in the new house.

Can you use those types of thermostats on Goodman package units ?

Yeah I have two of those Honeywell thermostats. Your Mikey they are good thermostats.

I have a 2 story house. one furnace. the colder it gets outside naturally the more the furnace runs. The upstairs gets hotter the more colder it gets outside. I have the honeywell rth9580 thermostat downstairs. Ive contemplated installing another rth9580 upstairs,but not sure how that would work, or just moving the downstairs thermostat upstairs. Not sure what to do. I like the honeywell rth9580 but not sure if it will handle 2 thermostats controlling the same furnace unless they talk to each other????

Does this thermostat have the ventilator option to turn on your ventilator on or off?

hey, can you connect to wifi and still keep the unit from displaying outdoor temp, i do not want outdoor temp.

Would you recommend that T-stat for 1 zone Steam or would it be overkill?🤔

Would you recommend a Honeywell 9000 for hydronic radiant heat?

Thermostat Honeywell the screen is very cool, I need to install one

Hey Mike, I have a Nest 3rd generation installed in my furnace (Kerosene) I also have an old Honeywell and I installed together with the Nest, the reason I installed the honeywell was because just in case the Nest fails, the honeywell kicks in, I set the nest at 55 degrees and the honeywell at 48. Do you see any problem having two installed together??

I love that Honeywell 9000 I have it at my home my business and my cabin

Whats the deadband on this stat? 2° above and 2° below setpoint? I didnt see anything in the manual if it was changeable. Looking to change out my venstar.

Mike The 2 thermostats I listed are wifi so again which is better

I Tried installing it. But Instead of blowing cooling it was blowing heat 😢 how Can I fix that?

i like my Nest, but I have thought about changing it out to something else if I ever change out my furnace/AC.

Mikey, I've installed the Honeywell home 9000 today everything installed fine except in the IOS Resideo app. The Resideo app does not have the Honeywell Home 9000 thermostat in the selection list, therefor I cannot control it from apple phone which has the latest IOS version 16.2. Resideo app is the problem as they don't have it as part of the selection. I've been to the Resideo website but I can't find anything regarding this thermostat. I bought this thermostat so that I can control it from my iphone not my deskstop. Any ideas ? Have you heard anything about this issue with this thermostat not being on the Resideo iphone app? thanks for your help.

Hi Mike, you make awesome videos. One quick question- what digital thermostat can I use as a reverse-acting thermostat as I have a normally open zone valve? Thanks

I need help with my new 9000 Honeywell thermostat. It was professionally installed. I want it to use heat, to warm my home, and cool to cool it down, automatically, WITHOUT swiping the MODE from cool to heat. Is that possible. ..?..

Removing a stat has to be done from the Web, can't be done from the App. Also, you get monthly usage reports on heating/cooling hours used per month and a comparison to the same month of the prior year, which is nice. Not all flavors support 2 stage AC, so when using for commercial units make sure to buy the correct one.

Unfortunately, mine requires the gateway for it to be online.. Love the room sensors

I have the same exact thermostat. I have forced air for air conditioning and then a hydronic boiler for heating on initial setup do I choose forced air or boiler.

Love these tyoe of videos...new technology...its changing fast gotta keep up.... Very informative keep rickin ... Luv from ohio

I had a nest in my old home and I liked it compared to the junk tstat that was in there. My number is 37

This is what I have in my house. Customers ask what the best Wifi thermostat is, it's the 9000 in my opinion.

Dear Mr. pipes my name is Glenn Smith I’m building a home here in Saint Augustine Florida it’s a 1900 square-foot home the AC guy is coming out today to talk to the builder on his budget sheet he has a Linux written down to be put in I said no to the builder on Lenix and I suggested a Bosch unit which he will check into but we have to stay within budget what would be your second and third best unit for here in Florida for my situation I appreciate it very much

Will this thermostat work on single stage cooling and heat pump with emergency electric? Goodman units. Thanks for your time

Mikey, I’ve picked my 2 numbers, but I’m not going to divulge them for fear that I might win one of those Nest thermostats‼️😂 Nest, in my view, is a novelty gadget. It has become extremely popular, primarily because of it’s unique cosmetic design, and NOT because of what’s “under the hood”, so to speak. I installed an upstairs and a downstairs Prestige® IAQ with Equipment Interface Module Honeywell thermostat. They are complicated because they require the Module which must be located elsewhere in the house to work. Thermostat requires only 2 wires, R & C❗️The system also uses an outdoor temp/humidity sensor and in my case, 2 remote indoor wireless temperature sensors. Those 2 indoor remotes + the main Prestige perform the function of temperature averaging for greater indoor comfort! Wishing the winner of those Nest’s, the very best! They make very attractive paperweights for one’s desk😂

My guess is 45

Did you give away the thermostats yet?

for excitement, touch all the thermostat wires together at once, except for common. Actually, I don't know how the control boards handle that now days, years ago with simple relays or controls they'd bang everything on at once, fan heat and cooling making a giant lossy dehumidifier 🤣

I would have picked 69 my favorite number but my second favorite is 13. So 13 is my guess. Good luck in your future endeavor’s.

Some thermostats require a jumper. Does this one require that connection? How do I know? The person who tossed out my $250 claimed it was bad and replaced it with a $20 one. They claimed it not heating was normal and that the heat pump had to be subsidized with a kerosene heater. They didn’t connect the emergency heat jumper. There is more to the story but don’t see the need to tell the entire drama.

Does this thermostat talk outside your local wi-fi network? If so, non-starter. I am tired of all these corps. having access to my private information. If they want access to me, then they can approach me with an offer to pay me for tracking my every move…I even got rid of my smart phone, basic flip phone with no apps from here on out.

Easy to remove, just need to know the unique network MAC address of the old units. U can find it on the old device if u still have it. U can also reconnect the old units if u have them and they are still working. If not, go into the network router serving your home network, find the MAC addresses of all the units online and copy those MAC numbers down. Then by process of elimination remove the ones on the my connect portal that u did not write down. There is also free software out there that will scan your network (wired or wifi) and can give u the same info, IP address and MAC address. And my lucky number is 48.

If u know an IT person they can easily find the MAC addresses of the units currently online on the home wifi network and then use that list to eliminate the ones showing on the Honeywell web portal. I had to do the same. I had one for a friend go belly up and he threw it out. He had 4 online and 5 listed in the portal. I went to his home router and found the MAC and IP addresses of the 4 units online, copied those MAC addresses down and went to the Honeywell portal and deleted the one I didn’t copy down. Was a 30 minute process to get the info, verify against devices online, then look in the Honeywell list and delete.

K.I.S.S. now even the most basic thermostats have a battery in them and rarely last long at all. go figure

Dear Pipe Doctor PI, I have a Nest thermostat which I hate hate hate! I wonder if you know of one thermostat which can go on wi-fi by itself, that the numbers on the screen be large(because I need reading glasses every time I need to check on the temp), and that it has a large screen. Those are my 3 needs. The reason I need for it to detect the wi-fi is because I shut off my wi-fi at night, and in the morning I turn it back on. But the nest thermostat will not pick up on the wi-fi every morning, but rather needs me to re-program it as it if were the first time I am connecting it to the wi-fi. This is one of the reasons I no longer change my temperature from my couch using my computer because I have to get up and reprogram the unintelligent thing !!
