Thanks, man. I'm installing this system on Monday, and this took a lot of worry outta my weekend. I do mostly small residential houses in a rural area. I've ventured out to the lake shore of Lake Michigan and want to give my customers the best. This helps a lot. Thanks again.
God bless you young man for showing us about this wireless thermostat that doesn’t require hardwiring to the hvac system. Exactly what I was looking. 🤗🙏🏾.
I sure will. I actually have a question. Is this Honeywell thermostat the only thermostat that has a wireless connection between the thermostat and the hvac system that you know of?
Thanks for the great video. I'm a former electrician up in Northern Maine. I have a bad t-stat wire that would need a lot of walls opened to replace it. This honeywell redlink system looks like exactly what I need. Thanks for the install lesson, I'm going to order parts now!
@@TaddyDigest would this redlink system work on a 2 wire (RH & W) system. The old t-stat (LUX TX500E) is connected to a relay box (TACO SR504) that runs an oil fired furnace. Thanks for any help, I don't see anything in the install manual that says for sure.
Thanks for this video. It gives me a lot of confidence on the distance that it can cover. Im currently dealing with a home that was remodeled and since a couple of walls were taken down, The proper reading of temperature in the home is all out of whack.
@@TaddyDigest Ah! I kind of know that whereabouts! almost familiar. Im planning to move back out to TN probably around the pleasant view area or maybe Ashland City. My YT channel is pretty old but the content is non existent, im going to try to build it up like yours.. and create more content slowly but surely.
Just curious, no wireless remote temp sensors available for those existing stats? It seems like that would be more cost effective and allow for better mounting locations to get actual temp sensing from with the zone, while being tamper proof as well. With that said, Thank You for the video, and I will actually be installing one of these as a solution to an issue a client is having.
HI...if you install the Red Link, I assume that is connected so you can use a cell phone. Thermostat then does not need it if you just want to connect via the wifi. I'm having issue with cold air bouncing back to thermostat and does not run long enough. So hvac guy thinking of moving the wires setup or maybe use this wireless system. My concern if I were to sell, the internet equipmt goes back to Spectrum. I assume then the ac will not work until new owner installs their equipment. Three AC/Units in 17-yrs & all keep getting mold. I should have a 1.5/ton but they always install a 2/ton and don't consider the sqft of the condo. Got this new older guy helping figure how to help me. Spent lots of 'money' and no thanks to the thieving AC Companies in Florida. If I go with the wireless, I hope he can get the return to pull out more air. Thanks for your video. I could not find at first anything about these types of Thermostats. Friend mentioned the wireless. Thanks...good video
I had a new HVAC system installed last year and a honeywell stat that has 4 wire running to it.(no C wire). The system when in A/C mode will set there and run until I turn the stat up, but I have to turn it up 3 or 4 degrees or the temperature reading will jump a degree or 2 to match where I set it to. I know sounds crazy. It will also jump down and match within a degree or 2. SO... first I called honeywell thinking this must be a stat issue. They had me test the voltage readings of the 4 wires running to the stat. The 24v red was fine but one of the wires read lower like 9v and seemed to vary. Honeywell blamed the HVAC system as the problem. So I called the HVAC tech out and after thinking it was the wires running to the stat he checking the voltage readings at the unit with the stat wires removed, he got the same readings ( one circuit was low and varied) eliminating the wires to the stat as the issue. He then said it was an ECM module/motor.He did a warranty replacement of the ECM and said it's fixed. For some reason this issue takes a few hours before it acts up. Then the longer it runs the worse it gets. He finished the warranty repair and said even though the voltage is still low in one circuit the system was working fine, but the next day it did the same thing. I replaced the Honeywell stat again and it does the same thing also. Any ideas what I should do? I was thinking by installed a remote stat like you showed here the command from the remote stat would work to shut the system off and on correctly.
From Houston, I have a 3 wire, from two floors, to two separate heat pumps. The heat pumps require 4 wires. The HVAC company sold me a device that splits one of the wires to do two functions, but that device broke down about a year ago, and nearly destroyed one of my heat pumps. My options to get rid of that device, is to tear up my house and put a 5 wire link to each thermostat, OR go with this redlink. My primary question is, if the internet goes down, or if I lose power a few hours, is the recovery costly, or does it put my equipment at risk? I know I don't have risks if I simply go through the mess of adding a larger bundle of wires. Also, I'd kind of like to not have to power the thermostat with batteries. I think I can use the old 3 wire cable for power. Can you suggest a model, and address these questions please?
So I'm doing a job that has 7 wireless thermostand I'm going to get 2 redlink gateways. Is the customer able to Control all seven thermostats from the same gateway app
we have this thermostat installed at our home. We want to be able to control our thermostat for emergency heat, so I think we need a Redlink, do we need a sensor also? Or will it work directly from the Redlink?
Will this device: THM4000R1000/U can connect with T10 Pro thermostat ? I bought THM5421R1021 and later I have learned this unit does not work with T10-Pro thermostat
I can’t get the red link conected, it say need to get the thermostat register first. How can I do that. I have same system as you show, but when I enter re registration said error.
@@TaddyDigest I need a video for this too! I just got the internet gateway in the mail and can't find directions anywhere for connecting this thermostat!
Tad, I’m about to install 4 Wireless T-Stats. So the Unit will be going off the Return Sensor and the Thermostats can be placed in the Office and not directly in the Condition Space?
I have a customer who owns this and damaged his t-stat with water. Can i just replace the t-stat without the kit? Or does everything have to be replaced?
I have this setup installed in my place. It works well, no issues and connects well with my phone over wifi. Does anyone know whether there is an alternative smart thermostat that works with this setup, wirelessly like this?
I currently have the same EIM unit, THM53020R, that you installed in this video. I want to add the Redlink Gateway to it. The manual for the Gateway you pointed to in your video says it can be used for a THM4000R wireless adaptor. My question is....Can the Redlink Gateway be used for my wireless adaptor, THM53020R, the same one you installed in this video? Thanks.
Will this E.I.M support multiple thermostats or is it one E.I.M per t-stat. I’m trying to control multiple taco valves for different zones. -Cody from PA.
I have a 2 family house, tenant upstairs, me downstairs. One zone heating. I want to be able to set the temperature from my apartment using a sensor reading the temperature in his apartment.

@@TaddyDigest I have the manual. It provides instructions to connect to the redlink receiver connected to the air handler. Nothing about connecting to the Redlink Gateway.
Right on, some information that might come in handy some day, I guess the key words in todays story is WIRE, SAVE, MONEY, LESS WORK, AFFORDABLE,LOL, right on T, another good video but I would of like it better if you would of Spartan kicked that package unit in the ass,or chunked that thermostat off the roof,lol

wireless is great when the run is long or very complicated due to construction.

And check out the manual it will tell you can download it from Google

no
2 ft away to connect.
redlink makes wireless thermostat bluetooth.
