This thermostat was included as part of my new dual heat system, which combines heat pump compressor with gas or propane furnace as the auxilary fuel.
This is the best thermostat I have ever used. It can monitor and control up to 4 heat & 2 cooling systems, along with a humidifier and ultraviolet air purifier. The range of controls is astonishing. When you know the price of gas per therm and the cost of electricity per kwhr, you can set the thermostat to run the heat pump when it's most economically advantageous, then it will switch to the gas furnace when that fuel is the best economic choice (using the outside air thermometer to make its decisions)
For a simple gas furnace or electrical AC system, it's probably overkill....you'll just never use all its capabiltites. But for multi-zone or multi-fuel systems with add ons like humidifiers or air purifiers, I highly recommend this thermostat....it will pay for itself in savings very easily!We recently installed a Lennox Gp71 with this t-stat and are completely satisfied, warm and happy. That unit is well designed, works great, good user interface and easy to program. Finally, some engineers must have used a focus group or some panel of consumers because the thermostat makes sense and is easy to use. Set the temp and it stays right there. Combine that unit with a good variable speed modulating furnace and you will be warm and comfortable. The old thermostat was horrible with a single stage furnace. Noisy and full on or off while rattling the house. This new one is quiet and in my opinion, about as good a furnace and thermostat that money can buy.
