The common wire could be labeled “C”, “B” or “X” on the old thermostat. Please refer to the owner’s manual of the old thermostat.
What if I don’t have a common wire and need one?
There are a few options if the application does not have or will not allow the pulling of a common wire (c-wire) through the wall.
1. Look for an unused wire in the thermostat cable bundle
– Video: Using an extra, unused wire as a common wire
2. Use the “G” (Fan wire)
– Video: Using a g-wire (fan wire) as a common wire
3. Install an Emerson Thermostat Common Wire Kit

Do I need a RC/RH jumper?
No jumpers required
• Sensi Thermostat has a built in RC/RH jumper, no need to field install a
jumper
• If you have separate wires to RC and RH terminals (two transformer systems)
– Label the wires RC and RH separately and then clip the jumper wire on the
back of the Sensi face plate.
RC/RH jumper location
• Sensi Thermostat has a jumper built-in on the back of the thermostat

No jumpers are required when installing the Sensi Smart Thermostat
Heat pump jumper wires
• Some thermostats will may have additional jumpers installed
• Remove the jumper and label as shown below

Wiring – two transformer – conventional single-stage or two-stage systems

Quick tip: Thermostat wiring does not follow a standardized color code. Take a picture with your smart phone and label thermostat wires before removing old thermostat from the wall.
Wiring – heat pumps single-stage or multi-stage systems

Quick tip: Thermostat wiring does not follow a standardized color code. Take a picture with your smart phone and label thermostat wires before removing old thermostat from the wall.
