FAQ’S

Do I need to use the UWP mounting system?

Yes, the UWP mounting system is required for all installations.

Where do I install the UWP?

The UWP should be installed in an electrical junction box or a wall within reach of an existing thermostat location.

Can I move the UWP to another location?

Yes, you can move the UWP to another location. However, you will need to purchase a new cover plate and installation kit.

Can I use a different cover plate than the one included with my thermostat?

Yes, any standard size cover plate can be used with your thermostat. However, if you want to use a Honeywell decorative cover plate, you must purchase it separately.

What is the difference between the T6 Pro and T6 Pro 2?

The T6 Pro has a green backlit display and is compatible with most HVAC systems. The T6 Pro 2 has a blue backlit display and is compatible with gas furnaces and heat pumps. Both thermostats are compatible with electric baseboard heaters and electric forced air systems.

How do you reset a Honeywell Pro Series thermostat?

PERFORM A SCHEDULE RESET
Press System.
Press and hold the blank box in the center.
Change the number on the left to 0165, and the number on the right to 1.
Press Done.
Congratulations! You’ve reset your device!

Why is my Honeywell Pro Series thermostat not working?

Troubleshooting a Programmable Honeywell Thermostat
Put in new batteries; Check the circuit breaker; Check the indoor unit to make sure all the panel doors are closed; Make sure the power is connected to the furnace or air conditioning unit by checking the switch near the indoor unit is up.

How often should thermostat batteries be changed?

about once every year
Replacing the batteries of your thermostat is a simple and easy home maintenance task you can carry out yourself when necessary. As a rule, thermostat batteries will need to change about once every year. If you periodically change them, you shouldn’t have any problems maintaining control of your thermostat.

What does the hold button on my Honeywell thermostat do?

This is where the “Hold” button on your thermostat comes into play. By pressing “Hold”, your thermostat will lock in the temperature it’s currently at until you change it again. When you are ready for your normal schedule to resume, simply press the “Run” button and return to your typical programming

Will digital thermostat work without battery?

Yes, the Smart Thermostat will work without batteries. If there are no batteries inserted, and the thermostat is running off solely of AC power, the thermostat will report a low battery (indicated by a caution sign and LOW BATTERY flashing on the display).

Can low batteries affect my thermostat?

Having a low battery can cause all kinds of bad readings on the thermostat, which means the thermostat may kick on when it’s not supposed to, the room temperature may be incorrect, and the central system may not work at all.

Why did my thermostat stop working?

There simply may not be any power going to your thermostat. This could be caused by a poor connection, blown fuse, dead batteries, or a tripped circuit breaker. If all of these areas look good and your unit should be receiving power, the issue lies elsewhere.
