least 20 cm from all persons and must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or
transmitter.
Thermostat Location Planning
Actual thermostat mounting height can vary between sites depending upon furnishings and aesthetic
considerations. The standard recommended height is approximately 60” from finished floor. Any rooms
designated as ADA should be mounted above 15” and below 48”. See Figure 1.
Figure 1: Mounting Height
The thermostat’s internal occupancy sensor has a 120 degree wide horizontal viewing angle. The thermostat
face should always be pointing towards the main sleeping area of the guest space when possible. The first 12’
from the thermostat is considered the extreme sensitivity zone. The area from 12’-18’ is considered a medium
zone and beyond 18’ is larger motion zone. If no door contacts or remote occupancy sensors are used in the
guest room then the bed should always be positioned within a 12’ radius from the front of the thermostat.
The location should be away from any airflow or direct sunlight. Stay away from any walls which may contain
hot or cold riser piping. Where possible, plan to mount the thermostat on an inside wall. Convection, improper
insulation, and other issues with outside walls can cause erroneous temperature monitoring.
Ensure the vents in the backplate have proper airflow from the room and are not set into the wall. Vent airflow
is essential for accurate temperature monitoring.
