Pre-Installation
This section provides the following pre-installation information:
• Location considerations
• Height requirements
• Mounting surfaces
• Maximum wire length
Location Considerations
When selecting a location, avoid the following areas when installing the thermostat:
• Direct sunlight
• Direct airstream of air diffusers
• Exterior walls and other walls that have a temperature differential between the two sides
• Close proximity to heat sources such as sunlight, appliances, concealed pipes, chimneys, or other
heat-generating equipment
• Drafty regions
• Dead spots behind doors, projection screens, or corners
• Walls subject to high vibration
• High humidity regions
• High traffic areas (to reduce accidental damage or tampering)
Height Requirements
It is recommended to mount the thermostat a maximum distance of 54 inches (137 cm) above the floor.
If a parallel approach by a person in a wheelchair is required, reduce the maximum height to 48 inches.
Note: For further details regarding wheelchair requirements, refer to ADA Standards for Accessible
Design/4.27 Controls and Operating Mechanisms/4.27.3 Height online at www.ADA.gov and to
local building codes.
Mounting Surfaces
The thermostat can be mounted to any sturdy, vertical surface. Plastic-threaded anchors and M3.5 x 20
mm screws are provided for mounting to plaster or wallboard; 6-32 x 3/4 inch machine screws are provided
for mounting directly to a standard electrical device box. For other surface types, the user must provide
fasteners that are appropriate for the surface.
