Mounting Con-
siderations
Best Practices
Distance to Occupant
If the occupants will likely
be stationary (e.g., sleeping
in bed)…
position within 0-9 feet of
their expected location.
If the occupants will move
occasionally (e.g., working
at a desk)…
position within 18 feet of
their expected location.
If the occupants will move
regularly (e.g., walking
down a hall) …
position within 25 feet of
their expected location.
The thermostat has a 140° wide horizontal viewing
angle.
If no door contacts or remote occupancy sensors are
used in a residence, then the thermostat should either
be located with 9 feet of the bed with an unobstructed
view or have delays adjusted with "night locking" to pre-
vent setback during the evening hours.
