    Learned a hard lesson I thought I'd share. Moved into a previously owned home back in October that had two heat pumps with four zones. So I decided to install four of these T5's for the two single stage heat pumps. Had no installation issues really, but once it got cold one end of the house that has the master bedroom was constantly feeling chilly. Without having previous experience with the house I wondered why only that part of the house was chilly. Fast forward to January and got the electric bill. I was shocked to see $470 bill! I immediately knew something was wrong so I set all the T-5's to 50 degrees and then set out to diagnose each T-5 one by one by setting each to 70 degrees to monitor what was happening. When I got to the T5 near the master bedroom I notice the compressor wasn't coming on, but the heat pump was attempting to blow air using the heat strips ($$$$$). So I pulled that T5 off the wall and discovered to my dismay that I had accidentally put the Y wire into the Y2 socket (facepalm). Y2 is only used for two stage compressors so my thinking is that zone never ended up running the compressor and instead used the heat strips all-the-time..! Ouch... Anyway, I set the Y wire into the Y socket. Tested the unit and now everything's running great. Don't know if this little foobar will help anyone, but who knows. You know the old saying. Check 16 times, cut once... ciao

    Love this video. Can I ask, what is the difference between the T5 and T6 pro wifi thermostats? I have a Lennox unit and my HVAC guy wants 200 bucks to install the T6. I installed an EcoBee at my old house and it was easy. The HVAC guy said there probably DIP to flip inside the burner unit to make this thermostat work. I have all the wires necessary and my old (very old) TH800 uses the same wiring scheme. What do you think and just doing it myself and forgetting the HVAC guy?

    On the difference between the two I’m not sure to be honest. As far as the install goes, I think as long as you follow the instructions and don’t run into any snags you should be good. They way they built the instructions for this is very geared towards a DIY approach for sure. I always recommend getting with an HVAC pro once you hit a dead end somewhere.

    On my old thermostat a Robertshaw I had 4 wires installed at the time of removal. I see in your video here you mention briefly information on the C wire Adapter and the concern. Thanks for that I think I might have that problem. I had a blue wire but it was not hooked to any slot on my old thermostat. On this Honeywell T5 I purchased at Home Depot I installed the correct wires to the color code and I hooked the blue wire to the C slot. Installed the display faceplate turned on the power to the house and no display saying "Start Setup". Call Honeywell support and really didn't get in any help in why the display was not working to start the setup. I'm wondering if the blue wire is hooked up at my system or Option 2 do I need to use the C wire Adapter?

    Danny McColgan Hey Danny, depending on your system you need to go to the furnace and make sure the blue wire is hooked up to the C (common) terminal. As always, make sure power is off to the unit first and this should fix your problem. As a side note, if you have air conditioning you may also have another wire hooked up to the common terminal so make sure that stays put when you add the blue wire to it!

  • @TheToughGuysTV

    Micah, my assumption here is that if your HVAC system is setup already to have multiple zones, then you could install 2 of these thermostats and control them independently of each other. The zoning is setup during the rough install of the HVAC system with the thermostats acting as your controllers. I’m not certified in HVAC install by any means, that’s my understanding of how it works and I assume you’d be ok.

    Before you start changing wiring, reset your thermostat. The default setting for thermostat configuration is Gas. On this setting for me it was blowing hot air. Go back to thermostat configurations and switch it to Heat pump. This solved my ‘hot air blowing out on a cool setting’ problem.

    Geofencing means that it sets a virtual perimeter around a location of your choosing, and when the GPS of your mobile device is detected in that 'perimeter' or fence, some automated action will take place. i.e. When you arrive home, your AC will set to a certain degree temp. Yes, definitely set it up via the Honeywell app at the very least, and we use ours with Google Home.

    Sorry to hear!! I’m not sure if it has a reset function or not, but if you’ve disconnected from power and reconnected then that should soft reset at least. Make sure that the thermostat isn’t connected to either a GFCI circuit that is tripped, OR to a circuit that has a tripped breaker. You’d be surprised how some things are wired - check all breakers and GFCIs in the house. Last- call a local HVAC expert out to the house to assess. Good luck!!!
