Thermostat Location
The EcoNet Smart Thermostat is the command center for the EcoNet System, as well as the control for the heating and
cooling equipment. It should be located where it is easily accessible and visible to the homeowner or end user. For
accurate zone temperature and humidity measurement, the following guidelines should be followed:
The EcoNet Smart Thermostat should be mounted:
• Approximately 5 feet (1.5 m) from the floor
• Close to or in a frequently used room, preferably on an inside wall
Decide if you want to use the adapter plate with your new EcoNet Smart Thermostat. The adapter plate is useful if you
want to hide marks or holes left by your previous thermostat.
Note: The adapter plate is sold separately. Adapter Plate - RETSTWPL700.
The EcoNet Smart Thermostat should NOT be mounted:
• Close to a window, on an outside wall, or next to a door leading to the outside.
• Exposed to direct light or heat from a lamp, sun, fireplace, or other temperature-radiating objects which could
cause a false reading
• Close to or in direct airflow from supply registers or returns
• In areas with poor air circulation, such as behind a door or in an alcove
• On a section of wall with pipes or ductwork
If you are installing with a remote temperature sensor, place your remote sensor at a height of approx. 5 feet
(1.5 m) on an interior wall, away from direct heat/cool sources (e.g. fireplace, air vents, etc.)
