    An excellent tutorial, the best that I've seen on this thermostat on UA-cam.
    One suggestion, could you expand a bit on Alexa voice commands? For example, is there a voice command to set the fan mode? (i.e. : set fan to auto OR set fan to circulate)

    Wow best UA-cam video on how to use a product. Nice verbal description of the simbols too. thank you. Just bought this thermostat for when they put in my new system tomorrow.

    Should have an option to disable the fan mode. Likely most wont use it or will turn it on inadvertently. Adds too many modes to toggle though. Just the fan consumes ~5A, that's not insignificant. And absolutely affects it's operating life left always running.

    this is great and probably works in 90% of applications, but here in the northeast, we have gas boilers and baseboard heat which means no control board at the boiler(instead we have an Aquastat). In my application, the smart thermostat will be controlling both the heat and the AC (R1&C used). I have extra wires (3) coming to the thermostat and a 24v transformer near by boiler, the question is where to connect the 24v to the device?

    Hi there. According to Amazon description, it is "not compatible with 110-240V HVAC systems". However, can I use it to set up the temperature to activate an external switch that is connected to my electric floor heating system?

    I can't get schedule to use the right temperature. I don't use heating I live in hot climate year round. I want to set AC to be at 73F during time at home and lower it to 70F when I go to sleep and turn it up to to 73F again when I wake up at 6am and 75F at 5pm-6pm while I eat I don't want my food to get cold. the schedule give me temperature that aren't correct it puts AC at 75F when I am at home which not right and when I am away it sets it to 76F and when I am asleep it's 73F.

      The thermostat is pretty limited regarding these types of settings. What you need to do is first set your preferred temps. In your case it only makes sense to use 2 out of the 3 available (home, sleep). For each preferred temp you will be setting a range that you want to be maintained. Since you are not using heat just set that number to something very low and the heat will never come on. Set "Home" to heat=58, cool=73. At that setting your day time temps will be maintained between 58 -73 which means just the AC will ever come on when necessary to hold the house temp at 73 degrees (the house will never drop to 58 which would trigger the heat cycle). Next set "Sleep" to heat=58 and cool=75. At those settings your AC will keep the temp at 75. Forget about the change of temp while eating. Doesn't really make a lot of sense. If you want to change the temp at any time you can simply enter the "Cool" manual mode and set it temporarily to anything you want.
      Now that you have the "preferred temperatures" set , you need to set up the schedule. Lets say you wake at 8am and go to bed at 10am. Set up two schedules, the first will be set to 8am and use the "home" preferred temp you setup earlier. Then set a second schedule at 10pm and use the "sleep" preferred temp. You can then choose "copy schedule to another day" and apply this same schedule to everyday of the week if that is your choice. Set the mode to auto and you are done.
      The result when you are done.....8am -10pm the temp will be kept to 73. From 10pm to 8am the temp will be kept to 75. And again any temporary changes can be made by simply using the manual "cool" mode to pick a desired temp. Just flip it back to auto when you are ready and the schedule will continue.
      This is not hard but somehow not intuitive. I had to mess with it a while to get it working. Also just to be clear, do all of this through the Alexa app on your phone

    This video assumes you have a forced air heating and cooling system. This thermostat can also control hot water radiator systems controlled by a boiler. In that case the fan operation would not apply to the heat mode as there is no fan on the system.

    A manual is a printable paper document, not a video! Not living the phone life is a handicap. Can't remember a whole video. I'd have to watch it multiple times. I know it's not your fault, but I did search for a "manual". It's Amazon's fault. But you did do a good job too. Looks like you've reduced the blue output of your once or twice dropped phone. Which is why I don't carry one. I'll have to record this too. For easy access.
