Thanks so much for this two year old video. I have a friend who doesn’t know how to send this, I couldn’t figure it out either, and the air conditioning always wanted to stay on, even though I would set the temperature higher and press the hold button. I guess you don’t have to hold the hold button down for long, like I was doing, you just press it once. Thanks so much!
Thank you!!! I was ready to call a heating contractor. Bought this new house and it is only 6 years old and the previous owner had crazy settings and no manual!!! Saved me a service call.
I moved into a rental and they had it set at 65 in Arizona which was causing my bill to be double! This video saved my wallet, thank you so much. Was able to remove the hold function and set it to a normal temperature.
Greetings from Portland, Maine…Feb. 3, 2023 @ 10 p.m…..arctic blast this weekend through Monday…..-18 right now and high winds from the White Mts., blowing down the lake. We’re expecting a predicted low of -21 tonight (wind chill…-40) and -22 tomorrow night. I’ve never experienced this sudden a drop, even growing up in Boston. Another climate change adventure I could have passed on! John, you’re saving my life tonight with this video…the exact information that I needed confirmed…the manual over-ride to turn on additional electric baseboard heat (now that the inside temp is heading toward 56 degrees) despite my 2021 Mitsubisi high heat pump cranking at 75 degrees (usually set at 65 max). I haven’t used the electric baseboard heat in two years, so I was going by memory to over-ride the Honeywell to start the heat via Temporary. I had copies of this model’s user manual on my laptop (now on the disabled list) and downloaded to my iPhone ( Safari was preventing the file from opening)…Murphy’s Law! I have the paper copy filed away, but I needed the info ASAP. Thought of RUclips…one of man’s best IT developments! John, you came to the rescue….THANKS! I did remember the Hold vs Run button functions…but the Leave message was displaying at the bottom of the window. I must have pushed both buttons thinking I was clearing the pre-set. Thanks to you, I’m back on track…the thermostat is set at 72 ….the baseboards are putting out heat and it’s now a comfortable 65 degrees! I think I detected a bit of a Maine accent. I’m “from away”, so I’m attuned to certain words. Am I right? I’m now subscribed and will look for your other instructional videos. Thanks again! JMullen…your newest fan club member. I have now saves all three videos in your series for next year
Thank you very helpful,I just moved to a rental,I thought something was wrong and are heating bill was going to be threw the roof.i don't care for this unit.i like the regular one you can turn up and down,just simple! This video saved me!!
I have a PRO 1 T-701 the worst Thermostat on market. Many Companies don't have Manuel's with their items. Also, very unreliable workers. You have to ask them to check all your units. These clowns just install, and walk away with an outrageous price, which was only store bought priced $43.00?
Good video, thanks! I might have missed this but please make one that shows how to program the weekday, weekend, night and day please! And the notion of option of turning off the weekend and having the same for weekdays as for weekends. ( good for homebound seniors)!
Thank you so much!!! I couldn’t figure out why my thermostat wasn’t cooling the house. Apparently someone played with the SET button and it was all screwed up. Thanks again!
It still goes back to the whacky setting at whatever day and time. It's maddening. It'll steadily warming up while I sleep and getting all nice and frosty...while I'm at work!! 😭
thanks but my fan runs intermitting while on auto and system off. Has a mind of its own turning on and then off at no pattern I can figure , short maybe??
Thank you, I really enjoyed your video, it was very informative. My husband installed this thermostat. We live in the Chicago area, we still have our heat on. I set the temperature to HOLD, the heat would kick on then it seemed as though the thermostat started to malfunction, I set the temperature to 77, the room temperature would drop to 70 a 73 before the heat would come on. Now the heat won’t kick on at all.
I have a set temperature in hold for 74 the unit is in and running but it’s not cooling down, the temperature won’t drop past 81 in the house, what could it be?
🤣🤣🤣 ... Nope, we can no longer do that. Things are not allowed to be simple anymore. We are forced to have to get, sophisticated, mind boggling, time consuming electrical problems to set up. Would be so nice to be able to choose between recent and old school crap again. 🤣🤣. I know you are shocked to see this reply 3 years later. Lol. I am, again, searching out an instructional video to set this darn thing again and wha-lah, here I am. 👍
So I did I put it in heat mode and did the manual over ride and pressed hold to keep it at that but there is no heat. The temp actually dropped. What should be my next steps after this ?
Update so it turns out my taco valve Was receiving power but the gate the let the water go through the unit. Was closed. So once the taco valve was replaced we were good to go
I’m not gonna lie, I was like man I am HOT! Please GET TO THE POINT!!! 🫣😂😂😂😬 THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS UPLOAD THOUGH! I thought I had it based on another Video, but hours later 85*🤨🤨🤨 in TEXAS! THANKS SO MUCH FOR THE UPLOAD! Maybe now me and my 1yr old can get some quality REST. 🙏🏾
Everytime I set the thermostat to a certain temperature it changes to a whole other temperature, how can I stop it from doing that, I just want it to be the temperature I change it too
Help! This thing is too complicated. How do I delete all the programming and be in full control of what temperature I want and when I want to turn it on?
Actually, it's simple to set up manual temporary. Just use up or down button to set up temperature, and then posh Hold button. Then the Heater will be on to work.
He said to ask questions or comment…as far así could tell, I did not hear him say, flat out, do this or that to just let me walk over and choose heat or cool and raise or lower the temperature myself and just walk away. Come back in 10 minutes and adjust temperature…again and again as I wish. Forget all that scheduling!
How can I change the settings from 24 to 12 hrs. I´m retired and spend most of my time at home but like it cooler at bedtime. I don´t want a weekly schedule. We live in FL our home is an oven. Please help. Thank you
I don't have AC set up... just heating only. But we are having very high heat where I am and my FAN comes on bit doesn't help one bit. My heat is in off as I don't need it until winter but... how do I shut off this fan that doesn't do any good? Just wear and tear in my opinion...
So when it’s set to hold will it still turn off once your house has reached the temperature you set? Or will it continue to run forever? I’d like to set a temperature and have it stay the same at all times until it reaches my desired/set room temperature then it should turn off until the room gets warmer the temperature set and Back back on. That’s what I want I don’t really want a schedule just want it to turn on when the temp in the house is warm and then turn off once the house has reached set temp.
Yes HOLD will only hold the desired setpoint once it is reached by your HVAC system then it will shutdown until there is a call for heat or cooling once again. It is NOT a permanent on function.
I’ve watched all three videos. My problem is that I am having trouble returning to default settings. I set function 40 to 1. I was thinking this should make all settings the same as p. 12 pre-sets but it won’t change from what I had in before. Do you know what I’m doing wrong? Help!!! Thank you!
Please help, when my heat comes on ut also blows out cold air!!!! I have it set to a schedule I never put it on AC. Didn't even know that was an option during the hot summer. 😳 right now the temp outside is 30°. I'm in bed under the blankets trying to stay warm. Just had surgery Tuesday, need to be warm. How fo I get heat without the fan. My settings are on HEAT ,72 AND AUTO
So I turned it off waited a minute the hold I original had it on didn’t disappear - do I hv to hit Run? It went back to 63 in here - I turned off turned on then arrowed it up to 68 hit hold - it returned to 63 and didn’t kick in ? Or do I override previous setting by hitting Run ? First instead of turning off on switch on bottom?
You left me confused about something, when I set to manual override for good lets say does it still cut off the unit when it reaches the desired temp and come back ON when temp falls below the desired setting .Thanks a lot
@@JohnFrancoNH how can I get the days to show on mine screen. I've watched a few videos that shows the different days in the week but mine doesn't. Also how do you trun the fan off after the heat has stopped? My bill doubled because the maintenance said the fan still be on when the heat go off.
Room thermo reads 80 degrees. I changed to 72 degrees. Room temp does not . change. I do not want air conditioning running constantly. That means I must set higher temp than 72 and hold so air runs occasionally when 90 degrees outside and 80 inside, correct?
Thank you. You helped me a lot. I just wanted 1 steady heat temp & was confused w.the day to day individual setting. You simplified & solved my problem. Happy New Year!! 2021
Hi. Under fan my husband sets it in the middle between Fan and Auto. What does that do? Can you explain? If I put it on this we get heat but it seemed to run evey 7 minutes. Not sure if that is normal.
Do you need to Lubricate the back pins of the Thermostat? When I replaced the batteries on my Honeywell thermostat I noticed a grease honey color Lubrication on the pins, what is that? Can you provide the exact name/link description?

Silly goose 🦆
I like the hold override because you set it to whatever you want and it stays there and will only kick on when it goes below your temperature

Spot on dude!
Thank you! I’m in a vacation rental and this thing was driving me crazy! So simple once you realize..

You must have more brains than alot us
Hate the thermostat but very appreciative of your clear instructions!!

This thermostat is too complicated for the average bear. There are others that are so much easier to use.
amen 🙏

I’m absolutely hate this thermostat.
Thank you finally I understand how to use the thermostat.

I'm having that same issue right now I hope I don't have to listen to the whole video because it's freaking hot in here
To everyone trying to figure this out, just click “Hold” after setting temperature.
I did do not work 😩
It still goes back to the whacky setting at whatever day and time. It's maddening.
It'll steadily warming up while I sleep and getting all nice and frosty...while I'm at work!! 😭
Doesn't override on mine
@@sarahsaavedra4732mine either
Wish that helped. I wa t it set for 68 for eternity. However, there seems to be mo way to do.this
This is perfect information. Just what I needed. Thanks for posting!
Thanks for the video! Moved into a new condo playing hell to get this thing to work!
Thank you sooo much!!! Very helpful and well explained, I was completely lost and frustrated lol
Yes, thank you for simplifying! I was up all night struggling with this thing. I was close to ripping it off the wall and throwing it in the trash.
I did everything you said but I did not hear the click after i set the new temp. Also the temperature never changed??? Not sure why it is not working.
Thanks our temps are dropping and this was definitely a life saver
I followed your instructions thank you so much. When I come in the house it’s 80degrees
Thanks so much for the easy instructions. I’m in New England and was waking up to a 61 degree house!
Make one where I know how to turn up the heat and I can hear the furnace kick on I’ve watched 10 of these videos freezing my ass off
Me too
@@tracycarrazana2170 it ended up being the circuit board component the video was telling me how to do it correctly
thank you for your great info. I pulled mine out and threw it into the trash!! I got a simple-to-use LUX 1500 so simple to use and does it all.
Great tip!
Thank you so much, you're a life saver, you simplified it for me.
Thank you lots!! Finally no more shake and bake...Whew
Thank you! This has been driving me crazy!
Thank you so
Much. Thought I needed a new ac
Thanks bro!! You save my life!!!

After following your directions I can't get out of the temporary function after selecting the hold button
Omg I’ve had temporary on for the longest time and it wasn’t getting any cooler, hoping this helps which I’m sure it will.
Thanks. I am trying to keep my heater from coming on so much and costing us a lot of money. I hope I did this correctly.
I'm having trouble setting the cold air on, could you do a tutorial on A/C and the auto and fan options please.
I have a set temperature in hold for 74 the unit is in and running but it’s not cooling down, the temperature won’t drop past 81 in the house, what could it be?
Thank you very much for being didactic and helping.
how can you just turn heat on and off?

Yes HOLD will only hold the desired setpoint once it is reached by your HVAC system then it will shutdown until there is a call for heat or cooling once again. It is NOT a permanent on function.
When I go to set my temp it changes and then goes right back to the room temperature. Is that normal? It’s not clicking on.
Yes,..It will default to displaying the current room temp.
Is the heat/cool switch only able to be changed manually?
Does this overriding also apply for the Heat

What does it mean if I'm not getting a click when I set the degree I want?
What if the temporary/hold doesn’t make heat start? It does nothing.

Hi. Under fan my husband sets it in the middle between Fan and Auto. What does that do? Can you explain? If I put it on this we get heat but it seemed to run evey 7 minutes. Not sure if that is normal.
OK I made mine a normal thermostat, but it won’t kick on by itself
I’m having the same trouble, fucker won’t turn on for anything, freezing my ass off rn
Does anyone know how to turnoff the set ? Because I accidentally did set and tried to change the temp and I think I messed it up
