Honeywell RTH7600B: Great Thermostat; Great Customer Service August 30, 2010
MICHELLE OHAGAN (Chicago, IL United States)
I recently purchased this Honeywell 7-day programmable thermostat (RTH7600) from Amazon for about $15 less than it was offered at Lowe's Home Improvement. I decided to install it on Saturday while the kids napped.

Installation was super-easy (I've never installed a thermostat before). The packaging says it's a 15-minute install, and it was; though I didn't need to drill holes for the mount b/c this new thermostat fit on the holes drilled for my old thermostat I was replacing.

What stumped me was programming the thing (the thermostat is highly customizable), and my first thought was: "Why did I do this on a Saturday afternoon? Either no one will answer the 800 number, or I'll be in voicemail hell." I was wrong on both counts.

The customer service line WAS answered on a Saturday afternoon, and the CSR walked me through the programming process and asked me -- repeatedly -- if I understood everything or if I'd like him to go over it one more time. (It's actually not that difficult once you do it once). I was blown away by the help, and I'll definitely consider Honeywell for future purchases.

The thermostat has been up and running for a couple days now with no problems at all. (My favorite aspect of this 'stat is the fact that the backlighting is *really* bright.) Very easy to see/use at night. All around good experience. Highly recommended.

Definitely Worth the Purchase August 30, 2010

Great purchase at a reduced price. I previously priced this product at over $119 retail price, and then at $100 after receiving a HVAC Technician's discount before finding it on Amazon for $85.

A programmable thermostat is great for homes when it is necessary for your A/C system to run while you're not home or asleep. Personally I have a pet, so I need for my home to remain cool while I'm at work or else I would just turn the system off until I come home. This product is great because I can set the temperature at a reasonable level without it constantly running, skyrocketing my electric bill, and having the house nice and cool right before I return home from work. The touch screen is a nice "touch", which lights up appropriately, even in the dark. The programming features allow you to set the temperature for several hours of the day and even raise or lower the temperature when you sleep, for everyday of the week.

Installation is not difficult, although it is very important to note and document the location of all wires on your old t-stat before removing them, so you can place them correspondingly on the new one. It is also important to know what type of system you have (heat pump, "straight cool", gas furnace, 1 stage, 2 stage...etc.) so you can program the t-stat to work with your system. Even as a HVAC Technician, I forgot to program the Honeywell to work with my heat pump system, so if you decide to do it yourself, remember that little piece of advice to save you some confusion as to why your system is running in heat instead of air conditioning.

If you are on the fence, I would encourage you to give it a try!

NOTE: If you decide installing the thermostat is too difficult for you, I would suggest NOT calling a A/C company unless you want to pay an exaggerated price because you did not buy it from them. For this type of thermostat companies may charge up to $400 or more for purchase and installation. Try talking to an individual A/C Technician that you feel comfortable with and explaining your problem and see if he or she would be interested in installing it on their own time, since it only takes about fifteen minutes to install. You would definitely come out spending less money working with an individual technician opposed to the A/C company itself should you require the assistance.

East to Install and works great July 16, 2010

You can really hear it click on/off, odd since I had assumed it was a solid state switch rather than a relay type of mechnanical one. Anyway, I'd had it over a year now and it still works great. Programming it and using it is easy as was the installation. Saving money with a programmable one is total BS though since prior to having one I would simply turn it off while I was out and turn it on when I get back. Now my home is more confortable when I get home but my electric bills are a bit higher.

I have gas heat and central air and it was very easy to wire it up. Make sure you read the instructions first and most of all label the wires before taking them off old unit. It also was pretty fast setting up the schedule. Unit is up and running and so far so good.
