Tools and Hardware Reviews of Smart Temp TX500E Programmable Thermostat
Customer Review: LUX 500 Thermostat: Easy and convenient
Summary: 5 Stars
We own a two-story house with separate heating zones for upstairs and downstairs. We bought a LUX 500 SmartTemp thermostat for the first floor, so the heat can come on automatically in the morning. In the past, I had to go downstairs, turn up the thermostat (the traditional round Honeywell control), then go back upstairs to get ready for work, while the downstairs area warmed up. That's a real pain during New England winters!
We have a basic oil-fired, baseboard hot water heating system, no air conditioning or fans, and the LUX 500 was easy to install. You connect your thermostat wires to different terminals on the LUX 500, based on your heating/cooling system.
Can't vouch for more complicated heating/cooling systems, but the instructions are supplied, and look very thorough and straighforward.
We've been using it for two months, and really like it. You can set it to automatically raise or lower the temperature four times per day. For example (on weekdays), you can have the heat automatically turn up at 6:00 AM, then lower at 8:00 AM (when you leave for work), then have the heat come back on at 5:00 PM so the house is warm when you arrive, then lower at 11:00 PM when you go to bed. Separate settings for weekdays vs. weekends. You can also override the settings. So if you leave the house for a few hours, or for vacation, you press the "raise" or "lower" button to the temperature you want, then press the "hold" button, and it stays at that setting until you put it back in automatic mode. Very easy to make the settings, and the digital display is large enough that we don't need our reading glasses to see the temperature setting, as we needed to do with the old round thermostat. We like it so much that I just ordered a second unit to replace our upstairs thermostat.
NOTE: If you replace an old-fashioned thermostat that has a mercury switch, be sure to dispose of it properly (such as bringing it to a hazardous waste disposal center) instead of throwing it in the trash.
This thermostat is great!
