I've never wanted to take a hammer to a thermostat this bad until I found one of these, hot or cold should never be this complex
It’s the worst thermostat ever. Somebody invented it to make us miserable 😂😂
Completely agree. My head was spinning when I listened to this.
I was able to get mine to work. I've posted the links I used on the comments.
I can’t believe there’s a 5 min delay to turn on! This thing is nuts. But many thermostats are
I agree! I've set mine to "Permanent Hold". We just switch from heat to cool as needed and use "+" or "-" to change the temp as needed. Where's the old-fashioned thermostats that worked like "Permanent Hold" all the time?
I thought this was the worst explanation I've ever heard, until I realized it was the worst thermostat ever made to explain how it works.
Who remembers the round thermostat that you just dialed????
Old school, always the best. SMH
I don't know what I'd do without this... I'm a software developer and even for me this interface is maddening!! 😂
No way😂
real
I'm a senior. Totally d not understand this unit even with you good instructions. Calling the HVAC company tomorrow to see if there is a simple thermostat. This is crazy!
Me too. My husband cheated on me with another man. we are getting divorce.
Just got a new furnace today and this is the thermostat we got (big change from the dial type). The tech explained it to me pretty quickly and when I looked through the manual after he left couldn't make heads or tails of it. Thanks for this straightforward instruction.
The same thing here too
Thanks so much for this! This is the seventh programmable thermostat we’ve had over the years and it is the only non-user friendly non-intuitive one we’ve ever had. I couldn’t program it, even with the manual, wasting over an hour of my time before coming to TH-cam to see if I could get some help. I really appreciate you putting this out there for us. This thermostat should be discontinued altogether.
You're welcome! Glad we could help! :)
I’m having a lot of trouble - must have accidentally hit a button before I left today, came home and temperature is 66 degrees. Am trying to figure out how to get it warmer!
This thermostat is so complicated I hate it!!
this is the worst thermostat i’ve ever used in my entire life. i’m convinced they made this while on crack because why the fuck is it so complicated to turn make the house HOT OR COLD. my last house all you had to do with turn the switch to auto or on, then on the other switch it’s hot, cold or off. simple, easy, and not frustrating.
I know right? My last thermostat has a ❄️ and 🔥 logo to clearly distinguish between the 2 settings...not very user friendly but I got used to it...
Worst thermostat in the whole entire world. I want to rip it off the wall and break it
What's wrong with your unit?
Me too!
😂 I am not there yet. I am struggling to turn off the FAN. There is only an on option. So annoying.
I recommend Checking your manuals for
The programming. I installed 15 today same T Stat all carriers heat pumps package units and I had no problems at all .
The new box comes with a manual to set up the schedule
and a manual to set up the T Stat and the unit they are two different setups
I hate it. Honeywell WiFi version 8000. No backlight, hard to read, all digital. He set it at 70 and I’m shivering,
I'm a film editor working with complex software and I was scratching my head while freezing my butt off. Thank you! Great, straightforward explanation.
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! I’ve been so confused just touching random buttons and giving up after a while. You helped me!!!
Thank you!! I have struggled with this thermostat and figuring it out. You explain well and all companies should hire you as one who clearly demonstrates!
THANK YOU!!!!! I had my thermostat set on a temperature and it was on TEMPORARY HOLD. The desired temp setting kept changing and I could not figure out why. Your video showed me how to reset the thermostat to PERMANENT HOLD!!!! Thank You for taking the time to show us how to operate this!
You're welcome!
Well I watch the whole video and I still have no idea what I'm doing
I had the same problem
Why do they call it permanent hold? Does this mean progamming off/manual?
Thank you, very nicely explained
Thank you for creating this tutorial! It was extremely helpful!
Thanks for the video. Can’t believe how easy this is… now. I don’t mess with the complicated stuff just adjusting the temperature, switching from heat to cool and fan from auto to on.
Oh dear God the comments… lol In the first 90 seconds is all basic commands and how to use it. Do not go past that unless you’re fully caffeinated.
I can't figure out how to turn it off!!!!
@@gigigetsfit4662 😂😂😂sad but so true!!
Great video! THANK YOU for making it easy to understand with real life examples. Watched a lot of other videos on this and just got frustrated. So glad your video helped me finally figure out how to program my thermostat to make the AC go off during expensive summer peak hours. You are awesome!!!
Glad we could help! You are welcome! :)
@@sierrallcairconditioninghe6089 Thanks for the video. The temporary and permanent hold function isn;t coming up anymore. Not sure what I need to do to bring it back up
Ah, no.
Great information, very helpful. Thanks
THANK YOU for this video !!! It takes a while to figure out all of the button pushing. Your video was very helpful !
Mine has no buttons it’s all digital. I barely can read it.
Thank you. This was very helpful.
Thank you. This helped me tonight. It was 80 degrees in here.
Love how you explained in step by step. Thank you!
OMG Thank you for explaining my system to me!!! You are my new favorite AC dude!
Thanks 👍 It was very helpful .
Extremely helpful! I found this thermostat to be much more difficult to program than my previous Honeywell, but this video answered all my questions - Thank you! It was thorough, well-paced, and very clear.
Outstanding. Took away all the mystery of this frustrating device. Thank you so much.
It would have been nice to have a tutorial on how to set the air conditioning temp since this was installed in the summertime. Still have no idea how to make it cool.
I’m trying to figure that out to
Thank you so much.....I just couldn't figure out how to change it before :)
Thank you for this video!
Your explanation is excellent. The Best👏👏👏👏👏👏
Thanks. This was very helpful
I’m setting mine to 71 but it reads 75 and never gets to 71 :(
How I get back to the main.menu from unlocked
Finally figured out how to get it out of "lock mode", and get the furnace back-up, re-set, and running again. With poor eyesight, this thermostat is both hard to see, as well as operate, if the landlord takes the instruction booklet for himself. I nearly panicked, when it showed I had accidently locked it, by mistake. It's nearly at the freezing mark outside today, and temperature was dropping indoors. Thank goodness I have things back to normal again. What a pain in the butt these thermostats are. Rather have the old style thermostats.
Hey there, can you share how you got it out of lock mode? I accidentally put it lock mode like you had done- thanks in advance!
This is the worst thermostat . I don’t want to program the air like that , I just want to have one temperature automatic and not running all the time. When I put the temporary hold the air doesn’t turn on until the house is in 82. If I put permanently hold doesn’t stop at all . I don’t want to program for hours or days I just want a normal thermostat. How is possible Honeywell could create something so complicated like that … horrible
That was super clear and easy to follow. You are a great teacher. Thanks so much
Got a new AC unit put in, this is the thermostat it came with. I really hope I can get the heat to come on....I've just been pushing random buttons 🤭
Update...I had the technician come out and it was set to a Gas furnace not electric, so he had to reset it.
This is so helpful thank you!!!
Thank you so much. Just fixed it.
Thank God for this video!!! I'm not the techie chic so this was awesome!!!
This video just saved my sanity. Thank you.
I have a Honeywell T4 pro. I came into my house today my heat was cut off but my fan was on auto and the house was burning up like a sauna. What's going on with my thermostat? Is there a way I can cut the fan off completely or should I just disconnect the fan wire from the T4 pro.
I put the thermostat on the desired temperature on permanent hold and fan on auto but it’s still not working
Best tutorial on this unit.
Great video thank you so much
How do I force it to be OFF? I don't want it cold or heat, I just want to make sure it's OFF for a few days. With mode=off, and fan=auto, it the furnace keeps making noise.
I searched "my thermometer is haunted" to see what came up and this was one of the videos that popped up. Never seen this thermostat before, probably never will, but I'll avoid it after reading these comments. Best of luck
THANK YOU FOR THIS TUTORIAL IT WAS VERY HELPFUL!!!
Best video on this topic 🙏🏽👍🏼👏🏾
What if you have it on for heat but there’s no heat coming out?
Or on for cold and it's not cooling. So frustrating
I’m here for the same thing
I still only have cold air when I have chosen heat
omg im having the same problem rn
did you ever figure out a fix for it? im currently dying of heat stroke and it’s not even officially summer yet
Can you change the temp range limits on this?
What’s up with the fan keeps on. So how can I turn off The fan.?
best help out there! thanks
Excellent, excellent. Thank you.👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
thank you!!
In the beginning of the video you said it will run on temporary hold until 6PM is that the scheduled time it was set to or the time allotted for the temporary hold?
I have this system at my tint shop, what would be the best setting to save on gas? I work mon-sat and never need the heat higher then 65. Should I leave it on permanent hold and 65 or something different?
Thanks a lot!!
Buenisimo video me alludo mucho.
Good thing the new landlords changed the old dials out to improperly install this so my heat doesn’t even come on when I select my temp.
As some others have commented, this thermostat is too complex. I want to disconnect the fan coming on by itself.I don’t want the fan coming on and blowing air…I don’t want or need that.What do I do stop the fan from just blowing air?
Hit the fan button till it says auto. (4th button)
my ac kept going back to the scheduled times when i tried to keep it on permanent hold. house was constantly at 82 degrees and its 98 outside. absolutely miserable, hopefully this tutorial helps
Excuse me sir. I scheduled M-F & S-S in awake away home sleep at 75F heat and cool. Question is, is that okay . I just wonder if it would stop. My old a/c will reach 75 and stop for 45mins and cut back on.
Hi, I have the same unit but I don't see the hold option pls help
Does model shut off automatically when your house reaches the desire degreeS then turn back on when the temp rises up again. For ex: my dad has the temp set to 75 degrees so when we turn the A/C on after likea 1hr or so idk it reaches the degree my dad set but....it just keeps going. For hours until we manual turn it off.
At 5:31 you talk about Locking the thermostat and writing down the “number so you don’t forget.” What number are you taking about?
So the program you only choose which temp you would like to set it to? So then it's always on? There's no way to schedule when it turns off or shuts off?
And I hate how there's no auto cool or auto heat. It's either permanent on or permanent off. My last house had an old thermostat and even that had something a simple as auto on/off. Moved into my new house and this is what I'm given. Definitely replacing it.
This isn't a very user friendly thermostat but I got used to it. But it's gonna be a bit tough for elderly people and maybe teens. A/C and Heater settings are not easy to read...my older thermostat at least had a picture of ❄️ and 🔥 logos. And Blue and Red colors to distinguish them.
I agree, new furnace and it’s what they installed. I can’t read what it says without using a flashlight, why no illuminate back light? This thing is 3 days old and a red light is on; tells me I’m not connected to WiFi! I told the installation guy I didn’t want to mess with WiFi connection to over ride it. Now I’m going to have to call them to come fix this thing, plus he said it doesn’t take batteries. When electric goes out will it reset itself? I already hate it.
@@dmariewalker6880 Absolutely true. It is very hard to read even with reading glasses, although I don't need one. It is not made for human eye.
Your video is the best.👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Hi
What settings needs to be done after turning the furnance off in summers ??
As their is no AC in the home.
The installing tech evidently thought that all I wanted was a simple Off On change heat or cool, so he set it to super simple. I had to search through a whole whack of comments to find a user who told me how to reverse that. Thank you, stormchasecom. I now have a programmed thermostat!
I think I got it working.i got the fan on.thanks
I'm a Senior. Will call Hvac people back You made it sound easy Sorry Thanks
Thanks for the help
Do the main temp in home ever change, example your shows 68, will the 68 go up to the 70 dgree?
Mines show 72 all day long even though I raise it up and down, when installer came, he told me it relates to outside air adjusted to my home Air, PLEASE ADVISE ME IF THIS IS TRUE?? Thank you
My thermostat is set to 74 on permanent hold but will only get down to 76 and only start when the temp hits 77. This just recently happened so I'm not sure why
I just replaced 3x T4 Pro with Nest Thermostats. I can not live with non-WiFi thermostat any longer. I am surprised they come with 2022 new house.
Is it better to keep it on heat or cool?
Just got this installed the other day. How exactly do you turn it off and on?
I'm astaounded to read extremely negative reviews about this here and elsewhere. There are a few times that it functions normally. All too often, it indicates that the heat is on, it is "following schedule" when in fact it is programmed for 72 degrees F and the ambient temperature is 67 AND the heat is not on. There are other times when the heat goes on in the middle of the night - when it is programmed to be OFF at that time. Now, it just toggles between Prog and Off.
Another older Honeywell thermostat in another part of the house is nearly just as erratic.
A local heating oil company who installed both thermostats came out twice and said that they can't figure it out. One said "keep trying and see how it turns out".
Thank you for this video
Why does the fan have to be on? My heat was working fine before I had this new thermostat installed. Now I can feel the fan on when my heat Is on. My house is warm instead of hot. Please Advise.
my family tried to teach how to use this thermostat about 20 times. watching this video i got it now. ty but i have a question. if the fan is continually on will your bill be higher?
How do you cancel the "following schedule"? My thermostat was fine all summer, but when I switched to "heat" it indicated that.
I don't need to set for following a schedule.
We’re you able to figure it out? I’m having issues with this.
@@marthanavarro7681 It was a while ago, but I think I just turned if off and then reset it. Good luck!
Can this thermostat turn HEAT and AC on if it goes to a certain temp or Auto Mode?
This is ridiculous & so frustrating to understand. What the hell? Can’t get this to show the “HOLD” so how do you get it to show this feature?
I also have this problem….. how do i get to schedule vs hold?
I had to reset.. press menu anD THE PLUS ➕ . THAN KEEP PRESSING the ➕ until you get reset and press select ..
The Honeywell site gives it a one star. It comes with many installs, but once the programming is master, I am hopeful it will be fine.
This is definitely the worst thermostat I’ve ever had to use. They can’t just have heat on or off??
Thiers a lot to be said for old scholl mercury switchs....I cant figure out this model of Honey well with my new Furnace, so I upped to 32C to rule out if the furnace was not set up correctly..Furnace is excellent just need more time figuring out the t stat.
How do you turn the A/C on though, ours use to work and kick in instantly now it isn't even turning on...And how do you reset the settings?
Ok my husband is OLD school and driving me nuts with this thermostat (Honeywell T4 Pro). PLEASE tell me how to cancel all programing and just manually put the air on what we want during the day and change it at night if we desire with the +/- buttons?? We have been using it this way for over a year (new home)....and one day it just started setting at 83 degrees at night, even if we try to lower it...it stays at 83 at night (not good for living in Florida). Please help? We just want to manually set it to what we want. No set Temps at certain times. Thanks!😊
I have exactly same problem
I just want to able to adjust up and down temperature
Nothing else
Why can they make this thing simple and easy for seniors
god sake !!!
@@mjkmle35gchoilnek do yourself a favor and just go to Home Depot and buy a regular thermostat and if you don't know how to install have somebody do it, takes literally 5-10 minutes we build homes usually every two years (we've built over 18) And every time they install that digital one my husband's ready to rip it off the wall. He always ends up taking it down and putting in one from Home Depot that just goes up and down Lol!
Mine is off by an hour. My time is set correctly, but the scheduling feature operates on a different time. I have my Sleep set to 10:00pm, but it would kick on at 9:00pm. I had to set my sleep schedule to 11:00pm to get it to kick on at 10:00pm. It's like this for all 4 of the schedule settings. It makes no sense.
Is there a Z-Wave setup option on this unit???
What happens if the screen is locked and we don't know how to unlock it? We don't know the number?
Can I just set the humidity to 60% when I am away
I could with my old this one I can’t figure it out
I don't need all those features! I didn't get into all those advanced settings I just set it to heat 55 degrees and auto fan, I'm away on vacation and just want it to stay at 55 degrees so my pipes don't freeze I'm a simple person lol did I set it right?!?
Buenas noches una pregunta alex como puedo aserle para q no estea prendido todo el teinpo q estea cadad q nesesite se prendad
Great job!
I have this thermostat. I can say that I hate it. I would appreciate it if I could program it day by day, not where Mon-Fri have to be the same. Who does that? Not everyone works Mon-Fri and off on Sat-Sun. I would have never chosen this thermostat. It doesn’t even keep up with the schedule. Doing too much!
You would be looking for a thermostat that has is “7 day programmable”. There are a lot of different options, tons of which are compatible with your system. You just had to find the one with the options you love!
@@sierrallcairconditioninghe6089 Unfortunately, this thermostat was installed when I got a new furnace and AC. I never chose it. All is good, I removed it and replaced it with a Nest a few minutes ago. I love thE Nest.
@@kimmikim6084 mine came with the AC/furnace too; tell me what Nest you got? My Bryant furnace is self contained, 90% energy efficient, single burner.
Does this support a dual hvac system?
