If you are unsure whether your dual fuel system is controlled with this accessory or if you need a dual fuel kit, please contact a qualified heating and cooling contractor.

Physical Installation and Wiring

1. WARNING
Voltage hazard. Can cause electrical shock or equipment damage. Disconnect power to heating and cooling equipment before beginning installation.

2 Remove the existing thermostat cover from the wall plate. Leave wires attached.
Consult instructions that came with existing thermostat as needed.

3. Determine if your system has a 24 VAC common wire which is required to power the thermostat.

  • If your system is a heat pump, skip to step 4.

a. If your existing thermostat has a terminal named C, COM, X, or B with a wire connected to it, skip to step 4.
b. If your thermostat does not have that terminal, or does not have a wire connected to it, go to step 3a.

3A. Connect a 24 VAC common wire to power the thermostat.
a. Locate all unused (disconnected) wires from the thermostat wire bundle and write down the colors.

  • i24V Common wire is typically (not always) colored blue

b. Go to your HVAC unit and remove the cover(s) to access the 24 VAC furnace wire terminals.

c. Find the 24 VAC common terminal identified with the letter C, X, B, or COM.

  • This terminal may already have a wire connected to it but it may not be a wire that goes to the thermostat

d. Locate the thermostat wire bundle inside the furnace panel.

  • This wire bundle is routed from the thermostat, through the walls, and into the furnace panel.
  • This bundle can be identified at the furnace by checking the wire colors connected and not connected and comparing to the wire bundle at the thermostat.

e. Find a wire from the thermostat bundle that is unused at the thermostat and at the furnace.

  • It is possible that one of the unused wires at the thermostat will already be connected to the 24 VAC common terminal at the furnace. If so, go to step 4.

f. Connect the unused wire to the 24 VAC terminal, then replace the furnace cover.

  • The 24 VAC common wire is typically (but not always) blue in color. If the blue wire has been unused, it is recommended that you use the blue wire.

**** If you are unsure about connecting this wire or you do not have any unused wires at the thermostat, contact Customer Service at (877)288-7707.

4. Label the wires on your existing thermostat to match terminal names.

  • Do not use wire colors to chose labels. The terminal name is what is important.

a. Locate the wiring labels located in the box with the new thermostat.
b. Look at where each wire is connected to the existing thermostat and find the letter shown next to that wire terminal.
c. Peel off the matching label and wrap it around each corresponding wire.

Important Notes:

  • If you have a short jumper wire between two terminals, remove the jumper and do not label it. This jumper wire is not required on the new thermostat.
  • If you had to connect a new 24 VAC common wire in step 3a, you will use the “C” label on that wire.
  • If you have a W terminal, use the W1/W label on that wire.
  • If your thermostat has any terminals with names that do not match any on the label, write down the terminal names and wire colors for later reference.

5 Remove existing wall plate.

  • Note: During this process, make sure that the wires do not pull back into wall opening.

a. Detach all wires from wall plate.
b. Remove all screws attaching the wall plate to the wall and remove wall plate.
c. See “MERCURY NOTICE” below.

MERCURY NOTICE
When this control is replacing an old control that contains mercury in a sealed tube, do not dispose of your old control in the trash.
Dispose of properly. Contact your local waste management authority for instructions regarding recycling and proper disposal of the old control.
A listing of heating, ventilating and air conditioning wholesalers that participate in the Thermostat Recycling Corporation’s recycling program are available at www.thermostat-recyle.org .

6. Identify your System Type from the list below.
You will need to check your wire labels to help identify the system type.

CAUTION: EQUIPMENT DAMAGE HAZARD
Improper system type selection can lead to equipment damage or high utility costs. Follow the System Type table carefully to properly select and setup the control to ensure proper heating and cooling system operation.

7. Separate the face of the new thermostat from the wall plate.
Apply pressure at two tabs on top of wall plate to release it.

  • NOTE: It is not recommended that this Z-wave thermostat be mounted onto metal structures. Metal may affect the radio frequency (RF) communication between the thermostat and the Z-wave signal to the Schlage Bridge.

8. Mark two mounting holes using new wall plate.
a. Pull wires through hole in center of wall plate.
b. Locate the new wall plate over existing opening.
c. Mark two holes with pencil.
d. Use a level to verify that the two holes locations are level.
e. Correct holes locations as needed.

9. Prepare two mounting holes.
a. Drill 1/16” pilot holes in the two locations that were marked in step 9. If mounting to drywall with no studs behind it, enlarge pilot holes to 1/8” for anchors.
b. If using anchors, screw them into the holes.

10. Install new wall plate.
a. Pull wires through hole in center of wall plate.
b. Locate the new wall plate over existing opening.
c. Attach wall plate to wall using two screws provided. Do not overtighten.

11. Review the wiring table information.
a. Refer to:

  • Table 1 – If you do NOT have a heat pump
  • Table 2 – If you have a heat pump

b. Select the correct row based upon the thermostat being replaced, and then circle the wire labels you have.
c. Connect your wires as shown in the New Thermostat Terminals row.

  • Connect two wires to the W1 terminal
    ** If your existing thermostat has a “V” or “VR” wire label, connect that wire to “24RC” on the new thermostat, then connect the wire labeled “R” to “W2/O/B” on the new thermostat

12. Attach all wires securely to the new thermostat.
Note: A wire must be connected to “24C” to power the thermostat.
a. Use the information from step 11 to match the wires to the correct terminals.
b. Use 1/8” blade screwdriver to secure wires in terminals.

CAUTION: EQUIPMENT DAMAGE HAZARD
Improper wiring can lead to equipment damage. Follow the Terminal Connection information from step 11 carefully to ensure the control is wired properly. After wires are secure, bare wires MUST NOT touch each other.

13. If necessary, cut the internal jumper wire (JP1).

Cutting the JP1 jumper
The jumper is located on back of the thermostat face as shown in the illustration to the right. Cut the jumper using small diagonal cutters being careful not to damage the board.

14. Attach the thermostat face to the wall plate.
a. Tuck wiring flat inside the wall plate.

  • It is critical that wires are not bunched together and that they are pressed flat.

b. Carefully align the face plate to the wall plate while aligning pins into wire terminals.
c. Once thermostat face is properly aligned, apply pressure at top and bottom of thermostat face until it is secure.

15. Turn power to heating and cooling system back on.
The thermostat display should turn on and begin displaying information. If the thermostat display does not come on, go back through the installation steps and look for problems. Pay special attention to steps 3, 3a, and 11.
