Zoned Systems
Control4 supports zoned HVAC systems using a zoning panel. If used, however, a common
wire needs to be installed at the Thermostat. Power stealing is not an option in this case.

Remote Temperature Sensor
A Remote Temperature Sensor allows the Thermostat to get its temperature readings from an
area where the Thermostat is not physically located. Typically, the Thermostat will be located
near the HVAC equipment with only the Remote Temperature Sensor on the wall in the living
area. This creates a much cleaner install. In this case, the Thermostat settings would be con-
trolled using any of the Control4 user interfaces.
A Remote Temperature Sensor is also a good solution in a retrofit when a common wire is
not available and power stealing is not an option. The Thermostat can be mounted in the me-
chanical room and wired directly to the HVAC equipment. The previously installed Thermo-
stat wiring can then be used to connect the Thermostat to the Remote Temperature Sensor.
