I bought this thermostat and really like its cute round and pretty look. I had it installed and was looking forward to this being the right one. I am using it for a boiler heater (which has a red and white wire). You can use it for more than that as well. ( it works for cooling also).
The problem came when the heater when on the display disapeared. I was suprised and contacted honeywell and they told me that if you have a "Taco" brand zone valve. (which in simple englishif your heater has different zones for different parts of the house then you would have a zone valve ( its a small outlet near the boilder). Even if you just have one zone you would still have it.
So if you have the brand Taco and you can google it, its very popular than this model will not work with it properly. I called honeywell and they are well aware of this problem. They recommend using a model that has battery backup. ( note: this is only a problem with the digital model) not the older models or non digital ones. If you are looking for the right model I would suggest calling honeywell before you buy. 1800-468-1502 many models have battery backup. I hope you save the trouble I went through.

I like this traditional style digital thermostst because it is so easy to set and see the room temperature at a glance. You almost have to be a rocket scientist to use some of today's programmable thermostats. Whereas I just want to set the temperature and forget it.Best Deals on Honeywell Digital Round T8775C1005 Non-Programmable 1 Heat/1 Cool
We rent, and the house we are in had an old (though charming, design wise) metal mechanical version of this unit that did a poor job of keeping the temperature constant. Installing this took about 10 min and now the house is nice an cool in summer and toasty and warm in winter.Recommended.
