My husband and I are NOT handy. We replaced our Nuheat Solo dead unit with a new Nuheat Home Thermostat using this video. No one got electrocuted. Nothing made a burning smell. And it works! So many helpful tips. Thank you!
Thanks for this - just did almost the identical replacement ; simple and clear step by step. Only thing pulled manual for was how to set time / temp ect . Nicely done
I installed you OJ Microline Thermostat where does the copper “ground” wire hook up? And with out the copper wire “ground” connection I am down getting ground fault error codes. What causes them and how do I fix it. I don’t know the wattage of the Warm-Up floor wires. So that is most likely not set correctly. The floor is over 11 years old. Thanks in Advance and have a great week end. Your video was most helpful.
The ground braid is inside the black-jacketed non-heating lead. Inside that black jacket are a red or yellow wire, a black wire, and a braided ground. If your braided ground is not visible, it may have been mistakenly trimmed off. If there is extra lead in the wall or the box, you can pull more out and access the braid inside the black jacket. The National Electric Code says that the floor heating must be grounded. Please call us and we can go over your options - 800 875 5285 . Thanks for watching!
Instructions worked slowly in order to follow and were thorough for replacing my old NuHeat thermostat! And the clarity of the video is great! The back of my old unit was designed slightly different than shown with a slightly different looking line drawing. But it was pretty easy to see line from load and what went where on the new unit thanks to the video. You state that load lines didn't matter which wire went where on the new unit under load, but you didn't say that for the the two line wires. So I did as you did, but others may wish to know if it matters which line goes under which side for line in the new unit. Finally, it would be interesting to know why the older thermostat units fail for people in the first place. Or what exactly is the weak link on older units. Thanks for the video!
Thanks for watching David. To answer some of your questions - older thermostats, like anything mechanical, simply don't last forever and need to be replaced when they've been used repeatedly. As for your other question, for a 120V stat, the line goes to the terminal labeled "L1 (L)", the neutral goes to the other terminal labeled L2 (N). For 240V applications it doesn't matter which wire goes on L1 or L2. Hope this helps!
I have an overheating condition on my WARMRITE floor system. The thermostat is not calling for heat but the floor/room temps are always hotter than what the thermostat is set at. I can set or lower thermostat temps to 20°c but the room seems to hit 27-28°.....way too hot. Any advice? Thank you PS. This is just a 2nd floor issue. Basement, main floor are fine.
Hi Joe, Unfortunately it looks like this system stopped being offered in North America back in 2008 so we're not familiar with it. It also looks like this would be a hydronic system which works very differently than our electric floor heating systems. I would recommend reaching out to the manufacturer of the floor heating system or control to see if they may know what's causing this issue for you.
One of the best 'explainer' videos I've seen and I've made a couple myself. Its there anything else that is required for the installation of a WIFI model WarmlyYours UWG4-4999 nSpire Touch WiFi Programmable Smart Thermostat?
As long as you follow the steps in the video, the installation should be all done. We have a separate video for setting up your thermostat that you can find here: ruclips.net/video/pt81MS0OObM/видео.html
So if you want the air temperature (ambient) you would not need to replace the floor sensor - the setting can be changed right on the thermostat. Floor sensors are for reading the floor temperature and setting the heating based on that feedback. There should be an ambient setting on the thermostat that will help you adjust the heating based on the air temperature near the thermostat.

Glad our video could help you guys take care of that!
Great educational video.

The copper ground or house ground gets connected directly to the braided ground shield from the floor heat system. Thanks for watching!
@@Warmlyyours Where is the braided ground shield? I don't see it in the video and can't find it.

Success! Thanks so much for this video. Followed step by step and was able to replace my two old units with touchscreens. Thank you again
Where did the sensor wire appear from ??
The floor sensor wire comes in the thermostat box to go with your floor heating system. You can also order backups with your order.

did you try using the manual override setting ?

How do you replace the floor sensor wire? The floor sensor is dead. I just want a sensor for air temperature if I must rip off the floor 😎
