Tools and Hardware Reviews of Honeywell YRTH8500D1008 7-Day Programmable ThermostatCustomer Review: Easy to Install, Easy to Monitor Summary: 5 Stars
I installed this advanced Honeywell thermometer in my apartment about three weeks ago. The written instructions were clear and easy to follow. Honeywell also includes an instructional video on how to install this thermostat, but since my powerbook doesn't accept mini-CDs I couldn't watch it.
After removing my old thermometer, installation was a simple chore of attaching the new thermometer to the wall and attaching wires. This thermometer has two great features I'll mention:
(1) A seven day programmable week, with four different timezones for each day. Do you leave the house at a different time on Monday and Wednesday for that early morning yoga class? Well, you can drop the temperature down to 55 degrees a full hour early and feel good about saving energy.
(2) A large, easy to read backlit LCD display. Tapping the panel once activates a warm green glow when you just want to check on the settings without turning on the lights and waking the dog.
One feature that this thermostat lacks (and I'm not sure that I've seen any residential thermostat feature) is a way to lock the temperature settings, so that your pesky guests don't decide that 85 degrees is a much better temperature than 68.
Overall, a happy upgrade for your old, mercury based thermostat.
