HVAC Tutorial: (Thermostats)

Thanks. I don't even like to deal with anything else anymore.

as a tech myself, i agree with you about the 8000. it is by far the easiest stat i have ever dealt with besides the mercury ones! thats the only stat i recommend

thats why the call it 20°C room temp

all we realy need is 20°C sriaght up no need for over heating on 30°C or over cooling on 18°C onces u have had a hot day on 30°C and steping into ur home on 20°C u well a lot cooler! and is u had a cold day on -15°C steping into 20°C NOT 30°C it will feel a lot wormer any!

Thanks. Yes, all Vision Pro 8000s are the same. However, they do sell a Vision Pro 8000 Commercial. If you're a homeowner, you're better off with the non commercial one.

great video. I'm about to replace my chronotherm III and buy a Vision Pro 8000.

Are all Vision Pro 8000 the same? I've seen a wide range of prices online.

Darn it! I changed a compressor today and forgot to bring my camera.Sorry about that. I'll try to remember next time.

Dr!

OH DR...OH DR...why have you not made a video on "how to change the air comprossor"?....

HUGE FAN OF THE SHOW!!!!

If you have the VisionPro 8000, just grab a hold of it and pull it away from the base plate. Then you should be able to replace the triple A batteries. No tools are necessary.

so how do i change the batteries on my thermostat, i tried to open it with a knife from those 2 little slits on the side but i didn't want to wreck it, please help, we're freezing .

i love vision pro 8000, i love it!

Please don't give her any ideas for more Christmas decoration. My garage is already too full.

Hey Jim I have a suggestion for what you can do with all of those old thermostats

CHRISTMAS DECORATIONS HAHAHA But I Dont Think Your Wife Would Like That Too Much...

I agree 100%.

I have one of those stats and they are TOP SHELF! I wouldn't use anything but!!
The nice thing about it is its easy to program and use, and when my P.O.S Bryant furnace gets the boot, and a nice Trane hi-eff 2-stage heat goes in this stat will work nicely with it! Works well with my "poor man's 2-stage cooling" in summer too

Cool! Thank you from Florida.

great job thank you ... From Mexico..

Another thing it works well with is all the IAQ installs we are doing now.

And all the features it has and it only takes three wires to hook it up.

That is another good option on the Pro8000. Partial or full lockout! The t-stats are not cheap. But I like them a lot better than junkers like Braeburn. yuck! :p

Thanks for the comment. I usually have to replace the old mercury stats with the VisionPro 8000, so I go out of my way to bring in the common wire. I really don't like having to go back a year later only to replace the batteries. The built in memory battery is supposed to be good for about ten years. I work for the school board, so I lock the stat so that the settings can't be changed by a non technician.

"hey, if some gay guy can tell you about his favorite underwear...." LOL no S**t ! I', kind of the fanatic myself. Whenever I install one of those Pro8000's I always hook up the common wire so it runs without batteries and set option 280 to "1" so it keeps the backlight active (dim but not off). :) I sometimes install the batteries if the customer wants to pull it off to program or for backup. Although the watch battery backs it up for a while as well.

Thanks for your supportive comment.

its true and i agree.honeywell controls are the best control ive ever seen and encounter,they were trusted for many many decades of years,92% of our controls in our central plant are honeywells,8% is waste control.

Thanks. They are the best.
