Aube by Honeywell TH140-28-01-B/U Hydronic Heating 7-Day Programmable Thermostat Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The thermostat works great (bought three). It is quick to install and works on low-voltage and two wire line volt baseboard heaters. Only drawback is the loud click when the thermostat turns on or off but the sound is easy to get used to (so long as it is set to 15 minute intervals instead of 5). The unit is very slim and the faceplate is easy to remove from the wall mount for quick programming of a few side by side. The mounting (all electrical wires are hidden) is only the size of a light switch and would be easy to paint around.
Overall very satisfied and shipping was 1 1/2 weeks from US to Canada and well worth the wait.

Honeywell RTH2310B 5-2 Day Programmable Thermostat Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this thermostat because its sleek design, with all the controls that aren't needed daily hidden under the front cover. If you have a life that follows a very simple program, then this thermostat will work for you. But if you leave the house on an irregular basis and you don't want to keep the house heated while you are gone, it doesn't. The problem is that if you leave the home and manually turn down the temperature, it will revert back to the programmed temperature after two hours. This is neither on the box nor in the user's manual documented. But if you call their hotline, they will tell you. So the options are to turn off the program, every time you leave the home, but then you'll have to leave off the snap-on front cover, which makes this unit much more ugly than the cluttered competition (the program button is hidden). Or you turn off the program completely and use the thermostat manually, which kind of defies the purpose of this unit.

Honeywell RTH111B Vertical Digital Manual Thermostat Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I replaced one of the old round bi-metal spring thermostats with the Honeywell RTH111B. The Honeywell works great and keeps the temperature where I set it. It has no "bells and whistles" as you'd expect for the price. Only thing I did not like is that the slide switch for Heat-Off-Cool is quite small and it's not always obvious at which position it's set.

Honeywell VisionPRO 8000 Programmable Thermostat Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The unit measures 6 by 4.5 inches on the wall. The display alone measures approximately 3.5 by 2.5 inches. It's a little bit easier to read than some cell phone displays in the dark. Menu boxes line the bottom of the screen and other choices are on the left side of the display from top to bottom. It's easily to trigger a function unintentionally with a touch of the screen. Yesterday while measuring the display I accidentally turned off the heat. I noticed the situation just before going to bed and wondering why the house was getting chilly.
This thermostat, along with the new heat pump, keeps the house temperature more constant and even than the other thermostat did. Though the heat runs more often, we don't don't get those wild swings of temperatures and uncertainty about when the heat is going to cut on. It's also great to know that if the Honeywell says 68 degrees, you can be sure that 68 is the actual temperature.
Installation seemed easy for the installer who had the thermostat installed and programmed in about 15 minutes with no peeking at the installation guide. After my previous adventures in thermostat installation, I was more than happy to let someone else do it. Too many wires for me, and too many possibilities for disaster. The installation guide warns that only a trained professional must install this thermostat. I'd guess someone who is relatively handy could install this Honeywell without too much difficulty. Someone like myself, who can barely boil an egg, might create havoc.
I like that this thermostat is programmable for each day of the week. The only day I have to get early for work is Saturday, so that day is programmed differently than the other days. Overriding any programming is intuitive and quite easy.
To get a reminder to change the filter or battery, you must program the thermostat by inputting a time frame. For example, you could have the thermostat remind you to check the furnace filter every two months. I haven't bothered to take advantage of the reminder feature but probably should.
It's possible to set the thermostat to sense whether heat or A/C is needed for any particular day. I have that feature in my car, and actually prefer to set the thermostat myself on either heat or A/C.
One nice feature is the screen setting. Press screen to have thirty seconds for cleaning the screen. In this mode, there's no danger of turning off the heat or mistakenly changing any settings.
The entire unit pops off the wall smoothly, enabling one to comfortably sit in a chair while programming the thermostat or changing batteries.
There's even an option to buy remote units so that the user can see the outside temperature and/or the temperature in another part of the house by looking at the thermostat. We have no interest in this option. Finally
So far this has been a great thermostat that works well with our NuTone heat pump. It's wonderful to be able to set a given temperature for a specific morning time and wake up to that exact temperature every time. The thermostat learns how long it takes to reach that temperature and turns the heat on at the appropriate time before the target time. Amazing stuff.

Hot Water Heating Systems - Thermostat Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)For three years we have had two of these Aube 7-day units controlling two zones of radiant heat from an oil-fired boiler. We have been very happy with their trouble-free operation. I later purchased another brand that was on sale but found it was not as convenient as the two Aube units I was using. I then decided to purchase a third Aube TH140-28-01 thermostat, and I again find it the easiest to program and use, and again it is a thermostat that evenly controls the room temperature. This new Aube unit is working adjacent to another radiant zone's manual thermostat and is connected to an LPG 3-sided glassed fireplace. We keep the radiant zone at 67F. The digital thermostat comes on at 6 AM abd warms the open living area and kitchen zone to 72F and maintains that temperature until evening when the digital drops back to 64F, which then allows the radiant portion to keep the floors warmed at 67F through the night. My result has seen a true cost savings of more than $200 half way through our cold Maine heating season. We are now the most comfortable we have been in the past four years. I truly recommend this Aube thermostat. It is easy to program and install.... and it looks nice on the wall. Also, if I over-ride the program momentarily, I leave the door cover open as a reminder that I need to return it to its programmed control.

Lux Products CAG1500-006 Clean Cycle Clean Air Programmable Thermostat Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)For the price you really can't beat it. It was cheaper than Hunter and Honeywell 7 day models. It looks nicer than the Hunter models as well.
Installation was very easy, and the programming directions are very easy to follow. Since it's a 7 day model, you can have a (different) program for each day.
You set the time/temp for MORNING, DAY, EVENING, and NIGHT. You can set this for each day, or use the COPY button to apply it to the next day.
I also like the backlight feature which stays on for 20 seconds at the push of the LUX button.
Check out the product manual for all the features. I definitely recommend it.

The Lux CAG1500 Clean Cycle Programmable Thermostat is a dual-purpose seven-day programmable thermostat. The mercury-free CAG1500 not only controls temperature, but it also utilizes Clean Cycle technology to improve air quality. Compatible with most types of conventional heating and cooling systems, this thermostat is preprogrammed with a schedule developed to save energy and reduce costs. It also offers the convenience of four programmable periods per day.
Clean Cycle Technology Improves Air QualityThe CAG1500 is unique among programmable thermostats in that it offers patented Clean Cycle technology, a feature that allows you to program your home's fan to circulate air through the HVAC system's filter, reducing airborne particles such as pollen, dust, pet dander, and other allergens. You can program the fan to run anywhere between 9 and 60 minutes each hour.
Not only does this improve the quality of air throughout your home, but it also increases your energy savings and comfort. First, the fan only runs and uses energy when you program it to do so, preventing wasted energy and unnecessary use. Second, the fan is programmed to operate independently, using much less energy than it would take to circulate a home's air by running the entire HVAC system.
Seven-Day Programming with Four Periods per DayOne of the easiest ways to reduce utility costs is to program your thermostat to fit your schedule. The CAG1500 lets you create a different program for every day of the week, and you can enter four different time periods and temperature settings in a 24-hour period (Morning, Day, Evening, and Night).
User-Friendly Programming, Filter Monitor, and Key LockThanks to a large lighted multi-color display and the patented Lux Speed Dial the CAG1500 is incredibly easy to use. For further convenience, a graphic filter monitor indicates when the filter needs to be replaced or cleaned.
The CAG1500 also offers a keypad lock to prevent unauthorized changes to the thermostat settings.
Save Money and the EnvironmentLike all programmable thermostats, the CAG1500 helps reduce energy consumption, but this efficient device takes savings a step further. To maximize your home's energy efficiency, the CAG1500 comes preprogrammed with a default heating and cooling schedule that's designed to save up to $500 in energy costs over a year, and it can also help cut down on your carbon footprint. Because the CAG1500 is 100% mercury free, you can be sure it's a safe and environmentally conscious choice for your home.
Compatible with Most Heating and Air Conditioning SystemsThe CAG1500 is compatible with most heating and air conditioning systems, including one-stage heat and one-stage cool systems (gas, oil, or electric heating, and single-stage heat pumps), two-wire heat-only hydronic systems (hot water baseboard and radiator), and millivolt systems (wall heaters and gas fireplaces).
Two "AA" alkaline batteries are required for operation (batteries not included).

Honeywell RTH7500D Conventional 7-Day Programmable Thermostat Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Easy to install and programming buttons are easy to understand. It is the display that is difficult to understand. Be very careful about the check mark before the days of the week. When you make a temperature input it will apply to EVERY day that has a check mark and erase what you previously inputted. You have to cycle through the days twice to eliminate the CHECK marks for the other days to enter in data for just one day.
There is room on the display to show you all your heating or cooling temperature settings for each day of the week, but they neglected to provide this so it is very difficult to review your inputs to be sure they are right and to correct for CHECK mark errors from above.

Hunter 42999 Just Right Digital Thermostat Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Winter weather has finally hit mid-state Illinois! I have been prepared and had the furnace all ready to go. My family returned home on Thanksgiving to a cold house. My old mechanical round style thermostat had finally failed (it had been acting up in the recent days).
I was a little nervous having to select a new thermostat and even more nervous about installing it. I'm not a real hands-on person with regard to home repair. But we were in a real need for something.
I picked this unit up very late on Thanksgiving night and proceeded to take it home (don't forget the 2 AA batteries). This unit was replacing an old round mechanical style thermostat in my home. The box says it would be a workable replacement solution and it was.
Installation was very simple (thank goodness I only have a 2-wire heating only system). I removed the old thermostat from the wall and removed the two wires (after powering off my system) from the old thermostat base. I followed the instructions that came with the Hunter unit (there are several easy to read wiring diagrams for the different heating/cooling systems) and attached the wires to the new base of the Hunter unit (after attaching it to the wall). The terminals are easy to read and hooking up the new one was snap. I attached the main unit to the wall base and installed the batteries. I followed the instructions to set the desired temperature and haven't had a need to touch it since. I had this unit fully installed in about 15 minutes (remember I'm slow since I'm new to this). Even for me this was easy to install properly. This unit will replace many thermostat styles and will control most heating/cooling systems (a full list is available on the package). Even better the factory default settings were the right ones to control my 2-wire gas hot water baseboard furnace.
The Hunter functions very well. Last night the outside temperatures dipped into the mid twenties while my family and I remained comfortable and warm inside. I have other thermometers (digital) in the house and the Hunter keeps the room temperature within 1 degree Fahrenheit from the set level regardless of how cold or windy it is outside. Something my old mechanical thermostat could never do.
The features of this unit are nice. The LCD screen is easy to read. The buttons are large and easy to use. The unit has a slim profile and looks nice on the wall (shouldn't be too noticeable in any room). The mode selection buttons and other controls are neatly hidden behind an easy to open swing out door on one side of the LCD display while the batteries are behind a similar door on the other side (no need to remove thermostat to replace batteries)! Operating instructions are neatly printed on the inside of the door housing the controls for easy access eliminating the need to search for the instruction manual later. I also appreciate the fact that the thermostat is electronically controlled and the unit doesn't have to be perfectly level to function correctly. This unit has functioned without problems and has been worry free for me and has kept my family warm and comfortable.
*** UPDATE 11-11-08 ***
We've recently moved to a new house and the Hunter served us well all year at the old place. It functions well and keeps the house comfortable. The batteries last a long, long time (a year plus).
I've just installed the identical thermostat in our new home to replace another round mechanical thermostat. This new home has a heat/cool forced air system where the old house was baseboard water heat. Again the thermostat installed very easily with the added wire diagrams. Installation is quite simple and the thermostat is easy to set up (just a matter of flipping a switch and adjusting the set point (one button).
I highly recommend this thermostat for an economical efficient means to ensure comfort for your home and family. The Hunter provided a noticeable energy savings on my old home, and I'm sure it will on this one too. Again, highly recommended!

Lux Products TX9000TS-004 Touch Screen 7 Day Programmable Thermostat Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)BOTTOM LINE:
Took about 45 minutes from removing old unit to new installation and completing programming. It works great!SYSTEM:
4 wire Gas heating and electric cooling.OLD UNIT:
Honeywell Electronic C9825 - bought in year 2000. Has weekday, weekend, 4 periods per day and adaptive recovery. Replaced as temperature override and 'Hold' features work erratically.TOTAL EXPERIENCE:
1 WeekREVIEW:
The TX9000TS is the 3rd electronic thermostat I've owned and is probably the most intuitive of them all. Lux has provided a generous sized display and a very responsive touch-screen. The back light is a pleasing blue. The unit is 3 parts - the main unit, a back plate where you connect the wires and an optional accent plate that provides a .75 inch border to provide a finished look.
I had read the earlier reviews on Amazon and had decided that I will not read the instructions prior to the install to determine how intuitive this system really was? The only exception I would allow myself was if the wiring was significantly different from my old unit - which it was not!
The setup was relatively simple. Removed the old unit and replaced it with the new back plate and accent bezel. No new holes to drill. The accent bezel is the closest piece to the wall and is held up by the back plate. I straightened the old wires, inserted into the corresponding clamp and tightened the screws - Total time of 15 minutes.
I inserted 2 new alkaline batteries (And NO, I did not use the recommended Duracell or Energizer!) and the unit came to life. I clicked on the time and it started beeping. I could see arrows on the right and intuitively touched them to set the time. Did the same to set the day. Touching the 'Menu' got me into the programming mode for the unit. I touched "SCROLL" to skip to the next feature, and "NEXT" for the next step in the feature programming. I do admit I took a few iterations to get used to the programming logic. Also 'YES' to accept settings is a little different from the colloquial "ENTER" we are used to in a computer literate world!
This unit is programmable for every day of the week. I, at most, need one setting for all week-days and one each for Sat and Sun. While programming the days, I noticed that they had a "COPY" function. I was sure that this was to copy my settings - every time I touched it, it went over to the next day. I thought that the data was being copied over and I did verify it after I completed my first iteration of programming. By the way, once you are in the programming mode, setting the start time for any period and/or setting the temperature is as simple as touching the time or temperature and using the up/down arrows. Could not be simpler!
I was fortunate that I had the program settings available from my old unit - once I went through a few iterations of errors (not using "YES" to accept settings!) the unit was programmed - Total time of 15 minutes
I spent another 10 minutes setting the 'Filter Usage' and 'Swing settings' and reviewing the 'Temperature Calibration' and 'Energy Usage' monitor. The Swing settings only went upto 2.5 degrees in 0.5 degree increments (One of the other reviewer found that it went upto 3.0 degrees???)
I did not see the 'Smart Recovery' option and thought that it might be a switch on the circuit board like my last unit. It was 1.30 in the morning and I did not feel like reading the instructions. I attached the TX9000TS and it kicked off instantly.
The instructions did have the following options that can be changed with the small slide switches towards the back of the main unit -- 12/24 hours time format, Smart Recovery, Degrees in C or F, and 2 or 5 minute interval between restarts.OTHER REVIEWER'S CONCERNS
Some of the other reviewers have concerns that the unit does not automatically switch between heating and cooling to keep the temperature constant. This is done intentionally!
In the summer, our ideal temperature is 74 degrees. When we leave for work, our "DAY" period is set to 82 degrees so that the AC does not cool the home while we're out. In an auto switch between heating and cooling, the heat would take over and get the temperature to 82 degrees and maintain it - which is NOT the intent!! We do not want the AC to cool any below 82. I can, of course, see the gentleman's point if one spends 90% of their time at home and is OK with the associated heating/cooling cost.PROS:
* TX9000TS is rated #1 by Consumer Reports
* Cheapest in its class for display size and features
* Very easy to program
* Love the LARGE display and the accuracy of the touch zones.
* Very nice Backlight and fantastic positioning of the backlight switch.
* Like the "CHANGE FILTER" feature. I used to use a Sharpie on the filter and then try to read the date through the grill
* Like the "Low Battery" alert.
* Power Usage also seems like a valuable feature...will find out in the near future! I did manage to find it by pressing menu and scrollingCONS:
* Lux could have done a better job with the programming terminology and could have improved the user experience with regards to the programming. For e.g., if you had to program day and time, it continues to loop when you click "NEXT"...to exit the programming you need to use "MENU".
* Another feature I miss from my old Honeywell is the "RUN PROGRAM" button which when pressed would clear the "OVERRIDE" functions and run as per the program. The TX9000TS unit achieves this either by touching the temperature and using the arrow keys to bring the temperature to the programmed value, OR, by touching "HOLD" twice. Minor inconvenience.
* The tabs, on the top of the base plate, that hold this unit are very small and I am in constant fear of breaking them off. My old Honeywell had a very robust design.CONCLUSION:
I do agree that the TX9000TS is not completely intuitive, but it is nowhere as unintuitive as others claim. I do like to play around with stuff that I get...if it were all super-intuitive and easy then it'd be no fun! ;o)

First, a large blue electroluminescent display is easy to read--even in low light--and clearly shows the current day, time, temperature, and filter status.

Additionally, audible touch confirmation indicates that your choices are being registered, while snowflake and flame icons indicate cooling or heating mode. For further convenience, a filter-usage monitor allows you to set filter limits from zero to 720 hours of use, and a 'replace' icon will appear when battery power is running low.

Honeywell RTH7600D Touchscreen 7-Day Programmable Thermostat Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Honeywell makes a very large line of programmable electronic thermostats. At first glance, this particular thermostat has nothing to distinguish it from any other programmable tstat from your local hardware store. (7-day programming, +/- 1 degree accuracy, etc.) However, this thermostat has some functions that make it quite a bit better. I've had RiteTemp's and Lux tstats, and this one is much better.
Most electronic thermostats kick on the system when you are one degree under, and then run it until you are one degree over. This (and all Honeywell electronic tstats) instead target a certain number of cycles per hour (based on system type), and try and hold the temperature as constant as possible. Since I installed this a few days ago, it has not budged off of the setpoint.
Another cool feature is the recovery feature. Basically, it measures how quickly your house is losing heat (or warming up, in the summer), and kicks on the system at the correct time so it is at your setpoint right at the time you program. This eliminates guessing how long it will take your house to heat so it will be toasty when you get home at 6PM. Instead, you just set the tstat for 6PM and let it figure out the rest.
The install guide is clear and presented me with no problems. Admittedly, I don't have a complicated system (1-stage heat/cool.) It tells you how to properly wire it, and is fairly straightforward on when you need to call for help. Most folks shouldn't have any problems.
IMPORTANT: Use the included wire stickers! Some installers do not attach, say, the white wire to the "W" terminal. Depending on whim, they can completely attach the wires at random. Bad things happen if you plug the wrong wire onto the wrong terminal. If a wire was on the "W" terminal before, it needs to go on the new W terminal, even if it is bright yellow.
I didn't have any trouble at all programming this one... in a few easy steps:
1) Hit the "Schedule" button.
2) Use the arrow keys and the "select" button to select which day(s) you want to program. Hit "Next Step".
3) Use the arrow keys and "Next Step" to go through the setpoints and times.
4) Hit "Done" when finished.
If you need to set any advanced options (like changing to a two-stage furnace or A/C, setting heat pump options, etc.): Hit "System", then hold down "Fan" for five seconds. Use the table in the manual and "Next Step" to pull up the option you need to change and use the arrow keys to change it. I set up the Filter Change Reminder that way. The fact you have to refer to the manual isn't that bad since they are options you won't have to change more than once.

Honeywell FocusPRO 6000 Programmable Thermostat Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)My teenage son can't believe I installed this and programmed it myself. It was very easy. Just write down on a piece of paper the letters for where the wires go in your old thermostat and put them in the corresponding places in this one. As soon as I powered up this unit it worked, and I had all the wires in place. Directions are in plain English (and Spanish) and easy to understand.

Honeywell CT50K1028/E Low Temperature / Garage Non-Programmable Thermostat Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I got this thermostat to use with a Mr. Heater 45,000 BTU gas heater from Northern Tool. The thermostat that was offered as an accessory with the heater had a range of 50-90 degrees. I want my garage just above freezing most of the time. I'll turn it up when working in it. The Honeywell Low Temperature Garage thermostat is good match for my heater. I've found it makes a big difference on how much the heater runs with the thermostat set at 35 or 50, so this thermostat will save a lot of gas. Only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is that the temperature scale is in a kind of compromise location between the thermometer needle and the temperature setting lever, and doesn't quite make sense with either of them.

HONEYWELL TL8230A1003 Thermostat Electric Heat Digital 7 day programmable Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I received my order of 5 Honeywell TL8230A1003 Electric Heat Thermostat Line Voltage Digital 7 day programmable thermostats one week after I placed the order. The units arrived well packaged, are solidly built and are much nicer and smaller than they appear onscreen. I had a licensed electrician install all 5 a week ago, replacing my 25-year-old units. The electrician had never seen this particular thermostat before, but because of the straightforward installation guide coupled with his experience, it only took about 20 minutes to install the first unit, and about 15 for each of the remaining 4. Within minutes I had them all programmed!
The Honeywell TL8230A1003 Electric Heat Thermostat Line Voltage Digital 7 day programmable thermostats are incredibly easy to program, and have icons that correspond to different functions (i.e., comfort mode, night mode, away/vacation, manual, etc.). I consider myself to be very "tech-savvy" and don't like to read manuals if I don't have to. With this product, I was able to figure out how to use every function, with minimal time, and without having to study the instructions (which, by the way, is just a front-to-back insert). Further, because they are connected to the heating unit power supply, there are no batteries to change. The only down side to this is that in the event of a power outage, I believe all the programming will need to re-done. Still, it's a minor inconvenience.
The most wonderful thing about these thermostats is the ability to program 4 different times for each day of the week. Though they come pre-programmed, re-programming is completely customizable. For example, for Monday and Tuesday, I can set the three downstairs units to come on at 5AM, go off just before I leave home, come on again an hour before I return and go off again an hour after I go to bed. I set the living room and dining room units to only come on in the evening. For Saturday, I program a totally different set of times, and on Sunday, yet another set of times. The thermostat also has an "On/Off" switch that allows me to turn them off if I don't want the timed setting(s) to come on, as well as a "manual" function that allows me to completely override the programmed setting and increase or decrease the desired temperature. The thermostat is also EXTREMELY QUIET when switching on and off in timed modes, and has a backlighting feature accessible by a long bar-type button on the face of the unit - perfect for checking temps in the dark. Each of the setting buttons is made of non-slip rubber so fingers won't accidentally slide off during programming. The buttons are small, though, and there is no backlighting for the buttons. The only caveat is to be careful not to press the "clear" button unless you actually WANT to clear a setting. This button is not in a separate area of the unit, and I inadvertently cleared one of the programmed times.
All in all, I am very satisfied with this product. What a great feeling to wake up in the morning or come home in the evening to a warm home! And the cost savings as a result of being able to use heat only when and where I need it are sure to be another benefit. I'm so pleased with these new thermostats that I've recommended them to two of my neighbors/friends, and I expect that they will purchase new sets within the next couple of weeks!
To summarize,
Pros:
Small and sleek
Easy and quick to install by licensed technician
Easy-to-understand icons
Nice "green-glow" backlight
Fully customizable programming - up to 4 time settings for each day of the week
Programming buttons have non-slip surfaces
On/Off switch
Extremely quiet
No batteries to replace - ever!
Cons:
No battery backup
Programming buttons are small and not backlit
"Clear" button is not in separate area of the unit

Honeywell YRLV430A1005/U 5-2 Day Programmable Thermostat for Electric Baseboard Heating Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Although I bought this item from Home Depot, it's still the same product at the same price. I'm so satisfied with it, I want to let others with baseboard heating nightmares to know there is a reasonable solution.
If you have baseboard heat, you probably have trouble maintaining a comfortable temperature without constantly messing with the thermostats.
My old non-programmable termostats (tried 3 different models) were never accurate (off by up to 10 deg) and I had to hang thermometers beside them to keep track.
This product ALWAYS warms the room to the tempurature I set it.
The programmable feature allows me to turn it down at night and during the day.
I can literally set it and forget it.
Also too, with a proper program set, I nolonger have to run it all night and day, using less electricity and saving me money.
And with a push of a button I can turn it up or down, on-the-fly.
The next programmed time will set the temperature back on schedule.
There is a "manual mode" if you prefer the temperature to stay the same throughout the day and night.
I'm planning on buying more of these to put in all my first level rooms.
But at $50 each, I'll change them out one at a time.
(The non-programmable version is around $35.)
Installation is easy and can be done in 5 mins.
Took me less than 10 mins to figure out the 7 day program function and get it the way I wanted.
With a built in digital temperature gauge, you won't have to hang your own.
Bottom Line...
The RLV430 just makes sense (and cents). It really works well.
It's very easy to use and install.
I can recommend this item with full confidence that it's one of the best thermostats available for baseboard heated homes.
