Thanks, I had the exact old one you had and wanted to upgrade. Nice to know it’s plug and play

[@marine8347]

Do you still have the back plate???

[@lukeupton9597]

7 minute and 54 second video telling you how to plug it in....wow.

[@andrealouisabasile8529]

Thank you so much for your detailed steps! All done!

[@grimm76328]

Thank you for this! The wifi on my thermostat stopped and I didn't know how to reset it. This helped me a great deal!

[@AlbanyCountyFasteners]

Glad we could help! Thank you for your feedback.

[@darrylruple4564]

Whatever you do, do not get rid of the old thermostats. I've installed three of these in my house and had to replace 2 of them because they just stop working. On stopped after a year and the other stopped after 2 years.

[@ranajay123]

Thanks for your video. Can I replace the existing Honeywell standard digital thermostat to Honeywell Home T5 Smart Touchscreen Thermostat the same way ? Or it only works for T6 pro

[@juanmacias4854]

Changed out my old Honeywell for the TH6, changed adapter plates as the pin out is different and plugged in the head and the screen never came on. Suspect that I have a bad unit, did your screen come on right away or did it take some time to initialize? I checked the red or power wire and I have 28V AC, re-installed the old unit and it works, just the new one does not come on.

[@mahachooev894]

Works great just as it should

[@waldeanashford5668]

It was an excellent presentation, however, I just need to find out how to remove batteries!!

[@manniewiltz1671]

Anyone know how to change the battery on this thermostat

[@larredante9503]

Question. I have a Honeywell T4 Pro thermostat. Can I purchase this one, and just pop it in like you did?

[@bhagwansinghkhanka]

I have the same question. Can anyone answer this please?

[@joseph-is-my-name]

Same question

[@FireMini]

This was the only Yt where I understood my thermostat didn’t have Wi-Fi and had to buy a new one. All others didn’t. Great video, thanks!

[@AlbanyCountyFasteners]

Glad it helped!

[@davidgomez2649]

Wow very helpful thanks.

[@SoloEnSivar]

Thanks for sharing the info

[@BalanceOvOpposites]

It pushes right on but how about to remove it from the wall? I'm worried about breaking it if I just pull it off

[@DanielFowlerSr]

Thank you, just ordered the T6 and Your video helped me to see what I am going to be up against to install. Thanks!

[@AlbanyCountyFasteners]

You're welcome! Thank you for your feedback.

[@jplhx]

Holycrap! Hank left propane and is now in hvac?! *mindblown*

[@Olga-rg6tm]

Mine just stopped working after 2 1/2 years I thought it was batteries but it doesn’t have any. It turned off completely. Not even on my phone I can control. Any suggestions.

[@randyzahirudin7834]

Do you need a C wire to use this thermostat? I am trying to change mine to one of the new thermostats but requires a C wire for power which I don't have.

[@mikeblanton4550]

Fell asleep twice. Take a nap, cheer up and remake the video.

[@ezekbruh820]

Hi what if the unit is already set up for an account and it won’t let you create a new one

[@AlbanyCountyFasteners]

You will need to do a hard reset to the unit.

[@ezekbruh820]

@@AlbanyCountyFasteners what steps do I take ? Cuz I reset it to factory but still says it already has an account.

[@AlbanyCountyFasteners]

Reset includes removing the battery. If this does not work contact the manufacture.

[@humbacs11]

Omg, I want to see the wiring connections.

[@rodelramos9963]

where its getting the power. since this one doesn't need a battery

[@jerryviviano5062]

The video didn't show how to remove the thermostat from the mounting plate. I figured it out because I'm a handyman. I'm certain this was a perplexing step for many people. Also the video said it will save the time. It did not. As soon as I put it back on the wall plate it asked me to set the time and date. There were no instructions on how to do it and it was difficult to find, believe it or not. But I eventually did.

[@sbearly]

Thanks for telling us you figured it out. And thanks for keeping it a secret.

[@jerryviviano5062]

@@sbearly Sorry about that. It turns out that it's pretty straightforward. Grab it by the sides and pull one side of the thermostat away from the wall. It will eventually pop out. Once one side is out, pull the other side out. No screws involved. It mounts to a wall plate which is securely attached to the wall.

[@sbearly]

@@jerryviviano5062 Right, I figured it out like you did (well, there's no screws, no push-to-release tabs, maybe I just have to pull harder). 😉

[@jerryviviano5062]

@@sbearly That's all I did. Pull harder. Mainly on one side first, till that side pops out. Then the other side comes out much easier.

[@dhansel4835]

My 1st Lyric T6 quit working. The display wouldn't respond to touching the surface. I bought a new one and the grief began. I turned the old one off and plugged the new one in. It went to setup mode. I followed the directions. Here is where the problem started. It told me to put my phone in airplane mode and go to the setting on the phone and find the Lyric icon on the wifi and tap on it. Since I had the phone in airplane mode you could not see any wifi devices. I went round and round but gave up. This is the 2nd time I tried to make it work. Honeywell needs to re-program the install setting to make this thing more intuitive. I put the old one back in. At least I can control my HVAC system.

[@merlebyu1]

I have 4 wires, no common. Now what. T6 just flashes white.

[@AlonsoHernandezR]

Spent 2 seconds replacing the unit and 45 minutes configuring the stacked applications, lol

[@robertoviana514]

Do not buy this thermostat. It no longer works with apple home. But, I did receive an email requesting that I allow the government to take control of my thermostat via an "incentive" program. Big brother is here!

[@gmoemad9616]

Dude you did not say anything

[@rmwolfe]

Second video where the guy drops the thermostat. 🤦🏻‍♀️

[@AlbanyCountyFasteners]

Thank you for your feedback.

[@altheasmith-mcneil4242]

Was hoping to see how to reconfigure the wires when upgrading from T4 to T6 Lyric Wifi but you just skipped/glossed over that part.

[@maxkosar]

You said absolutely nothing

[@AlbanyCountyFasteners]

Thank you for your feedback.

[@cameriqueTV]

Don't discard the old, donate to Restore. Too late, I guess.

[@gaylefriedman3773]

Not very good in details. Anyone can say this is in depth to do your Homework! Professor Cramer taught this to me in the '80's. More Depth with Brokerage Firms! Getting back to installing a Unit, This video should show MORE INFORMATION than given. I get Excellent Results from a Qualified Professional. I became my own fix-it yourself from Well Established Technicians! I even give my knowledge to others on any problems! We're here to explain! I do this once I know how to! Then As A Regular Everyday Consumer, I Give Details! "Makes You Actually Feel As Genius!" Up-Grade your Teaching! This is another need to Advance in Votes!

[@AlbanyCountyFasteners]

Go make your own video and send me a link so I can give you my thoughts.

[@gaylefriedman3773]

I should, but I watch you!
