Thanks for stopping by, I'm glad it helped! Enjoy your new thermostat!

Thanks for your review! Have you run into any experiences with losing connection to your wifi? Does the hub still work well if your connection is out a few minutes or does it rely on the app/wifi a lot?

[@ostenako]

Thanks for stopping by! Yes, but in my case, my furnace control board was failing, so I must say - now that my furnace has been working like it should, I have had no problems. Also, when the WiFi is down, you can't control it from your phone, but the thermostat still works like a normal one, you'll just have to walk to the wall to change temperature.

Thank you for the video. Question, is there a way to set the schedule where the thermostat turns off completely?

[@ostenako]

Thank you man I appreciate it! As far as the scheduling to turn it off yes and no, technically you cannot put it on auto mode and then schedule it to be off certain time however, like I said, in the video, you can put a schedule on certain days you only want to schedule but as far as the temperature to be off what you can do is, let’s say it’s winter time now so you want the heat to come on when it reaches 68° but you don’t want it to go on a certain time like 9a-5p when you’re not home. What you will do is schedule it to turn the heat on at 68° from 5 PM to 9 AM and the time you’re not at home that you do not want the heat to turn on you will lower the overall temperature setting to let’s say 45°. so unless your house drops the temperature dramatically to 45 which it shouldn’t it will be off and it will not turn on. So that’s how you schedule it. The schedule controls the temperature within the schedule time frame so just make the schedule you want it to be off to a temperature that you know it won’t have to turn on. Hopefully that makes sense.

@@ostenako yes, that makes sense. Thank you so much. Maybe in the future they will simply add an off option to the schedule.

I got stuck on the part where you press the 3 dots & select the wifi. Nothing showed up on my screen & it kept saying to put the thermostat in connection mode which it was already in. After doing this multiple times I gave up & deleted the app.

[@ostenako]

I think that happened to me too. I think I took the batteries out and started the setup process over with the app.
