Lux Products ELV4 Programmable Line Voltage Thermostat
Thanks to an easy-to-read display and patented Lux Speed Dial, this thermostat is simple to use.
Multiple Programming Options
Properly using a programmable thermostat is one of the easiest ways you can save energy and money. And the ELV4 makes saving as simple as can be--it offers four preprogrammed settings to regulate your home's temperature in the winter, while you're at home, when you're asleep, and when you're away. You can also use the on/off switch to turn the heat off during the summer when it is not needed.

For added flexibility, the ELV4 offers the convenience of separate weekend and weekday settings, a vacation hold setting, and a temporary temperature override for manual adjustments. A patented Lux Speed Dial allows for fast programming, and an easy-to-read display shows the current time and temperature.

Save Money and the Environment
Like all programmable thermostats, the ELV4 helps reduce energy consumption, but this efficient device takes savings a step further. To maximize your home's energy efficiency, the ELV4 comes preprogrammed with a default heating schedule that's designed to save up to 33% on energy costs over a year, and it can also help cut down on your carbon footprint. Because the ELV4 is 100% mercury free, you can be sure it's a safe and environmentally conscious choice for your home.

Compatibility Information
The ELV4 works with heating-only systems that are supplied by up to a 20 amp circuit breaker. It's universal design allows it to work with both single-pole (two-wire) and double-pole (four-wire)systems, 120/240-volt systems up to 16 amps (resistive: 1,900 watts at 120 VAC/3,800 watts at 240 VAC), and line voltage (120/240-volt) hot water systems with motors up to 1/4 horsepower. The ELV4 easily fits into a wall-mounted junction box.

Two 'AA' alkaline batteries are required for operation (batteries not included).

Tools and Hardware Reviews of Lux Products ELV4 Programmable Line Voltage Thermostat

Customer Review: Good line voltage programmable thermostat, easy to install
Summary: 5 Stars

I'm a big fan of Lux thermostats; I first used their excellent WIN100 Heating & Cooling Programmable Outlet Thermostat for space heaters, and then put in a couple of Lux TX9100E 7 Day Universal Programmable Thermostat. We had one old line voltage thermostat, that, bizarrely, is hooked up to a hydronic system with blowers over the heating pipes. (Our boiler contractor was flabbergasted when he saw this; no one uses line voltage for hydronic apparently.)

There don't seem to be many line voltage programmable thermostats out there. This one is fine. It's easy to install (don't forget to shut off the circuit) and easy to program. You have to program weekdays and weekends separately but it's not such a burden. It works fine.

As other reviewers have pointed out, there is no backlight, and it has a loud click. Really loud; don't put it in your bedroom. (Honeywell makes a programmable line voltage thermostat that claims to be soundproofed.) The display isn't as good as my other Lux thermostats in that it always shows the set temperature, and flashes between time and current temperature; somehow, I like it better when it always shows time and current temperate and doesn't flash. These minor flaws are not a real problem for me, though.

There was a problem with the first one I got; its current temperature reading was wrong and there is no calibration. Lux responded quickly to my email, saying I should return it to Amazon under my 3-year warranty. The Amazon return process was super-easy as always. My second thermostat works just fine.
