Very helpful and informative, thank you!
Youre a life saver for this. Thank you so much. Im also combatting the "landlord specials" that can kill you. I'm replacing a single pole with the exact double pole thermostat that one have in this video. However... there is only one set of wires coming from my wall... black, white, and copper. There's no neutral/copper connection to attach to this doublepole...and I'm not sure how I should connect this.. do I connect both of the black wires on the thermostat to the black one from the wall? Does both of the red connect to the white? Or am I just connecting one side of the thermostat?
Copper ground doesn't get used with theses sounds like landlord used one wire so if you connect white and black the heater should start heating up
Use a multimeter and turn dial till you here a beep turn dial down if beep stops connect the black with and white wire to each wire coming off thermostat that way it breaks the connection
What about the ground wire? The old one I have has a ground however my new thermostat doesn't have a place for the ground wire.
These don't use a ground
Does it matter which wires you start w red or black
No just make sure they go in exactly same spot on new one don't mix red and black red and red black and black
Thank you so far so good just seems like thermostat issues. I do have one other question I have 2 separate rooms with on same breaker double 20. 1 room 4ft other is 6 ft which is the one I just fixed. Could that be a issue?
You have to look up with the amperage drawers on each if it's over 20 amps then it's a problem
