I'm replacing my analog thermostat with a digital one. The ones at Lowes and Home Depot are almost $100 or more, will this work just as well?

Yes. This thermostatic control is an excellent value. Nothing fancy, quite adequate.
361749
It works just fine, make sure you connect the cables correctly. There is a daily program for heating and A/C, but no weekend programing, so keep that in mind.

If by Analog you mean it's mercury based/ non-electronic then yes it will work. I replaced mine that was dial and another that was a switch with a lever and they work great with this. And it's programmable.

Mine works very well have it programmed to change the temp four times a day

Yes, this should work just fine. Pricier model are just prettier and have more sophisticated programming and/or connecting to your smart phone abilities. As far as programming goes, this one is NOT a 1-week thermostat. You can only create one daily program. You set 4 points in a 24 hours span (i.e. 1-day) and then this program is repeated day after day. If you don't need programming, there is a cheaper version where you just set the temperature. Or there are pricier ones where you can create separate programs for work days and weekends ( 5/2 programming ) or 7 distinct programs for each day of the week (7-day thermostat).

We are very satisfied with the performance of this thermostat. I'm not going to spend $100 more for a thermostat.

It depends on your need. The thermostat works well with the following limitations: You can change temperature setting 4 times a day. If you wish to program a different setting for the weekends, this one won't do it. The battery need to be changed about every 2 years. If you don't mind the above limitations, it will work just fine.

sorry I am not familiar with that thermostat # . call or text pexsupply.com they can help you and have one of the lowest prices

These units connect directly to the line voltage.. If your current thermostats only connect via romex type wire then these will work. If your current thermo has low voltage wiring (thin wires) then they will not work.

I think it will be fine. We use this in a 10X 12 room with 10 ft ceilings & it has plenty of heat. I usually end up turning it down. Having a digital thermostat on it means the room should get to your desired temp & then turn off.

Yes it will work. Most units are standard until u get to the brand new models. Most common mistake people make is thinking its the heating element when its actually a high temp limit switch. For the money try the heating element first. If that doesnt fix it i would look there. Good luck.

If your air and heating runs off your old thermostat then this should have the same wiring. I did go with this to replace a Coleman, so can't be much help.

Trekguy answered the question very well. I bought this thermostat from amazon on sale $105.95. Great thermostat.

This is the best option for me. I went to Home Depot and all they have is a different model wherein you have to install everything from scratch. Overall it's cheaper at Amazon.

My old thermostat had to be switched from heat to cool. The Hunter works perfectly in this application (gas furnace plus air conditioner). If you have a complex system such as multi-stage or heat pump, I'd consult with an expert.

You don't. I returned this tstat because when I received it, I found the circuit board didn't have a floor sensor spot. It is often shown with radiant floors, on Amazon, something which I gave Amazon feedback about, but Amazon basically told me that if people buy the two together, even if it is wrong, their system will group it. The way this one checks temp is by an air temp sensor built into the unit, so your floor can get baking hot, before it really does much to the air, which means while it CAN work, it CANNOT work well or efficiently for radiant. Options include ones like Sunstat which makes a digital and a analog version. I have the digital, and it works great. Secondly...when installing a floor sensor (before you set your tiles), install 2 spaced several feet apart. Run both wire leads to the thermostat, label one as backup, and don't connect it, and use the other. If you ever have to replace a tile and accidentally cut the sensor wire, it is useless...and having a backup sensor already run, makes switching the wiring a MUCH cheaper and faster solution, than breaking up a row of tiles in order to lay a new sensor under the tile again. I got a second sensor wire for around 10 bucks, and (knock on wood) have not needed to use it. Also, if your sensor wire comes from the manufacturer with a short or break in it, because of the time you wait for the floor to cure before activating it, you won't find out about a problem until after you have done all the work...then having a problem can be pretty frustrating.

Was for me! Take off wires one at a time and install each one as you go..easy as pie. Much better temp control with this digital thermostat. Worth it.

Yes it will fit. And for the thermostat. Not a 100 percent for sure. But it its not digital it should.

I also replaced my old mercury tilt switch this digital. Just be sure to follow replacement instructions, and write down where the colored wires are attached on the old thermostat. Don't just tag them with the stickers provided. It shouldn't be a problem switching.

I experienced a power surge in my home which fried this thermostat so I just ordered the same model number thinking I could just plug it in and replace it. Come to find out it is a contractor thermostat and there is programming of some sort that has to be done so I ended up calling an HVAC person to get it working. Good luck.

The HDE is only accurate to within + or - 2 degrees. Most digital thermostats are in the same line. Older mercury are much worse. Some also depends on distance, the farther away the larger the reading sample, even with expensive guns. You can not self calibrate this one, sorry.

as long as the temp slide and switches are in the same places and have the exact same functions then yes they are both analog thermostats and should mate with the board up in the unit. be sure to turn off the breaker going to the unit in question before you touch th old thermostso you don't short and blow the upper control board while changing out the thermostat and wires accidentally touch. good luck.

Sorry, but mine has a digital thermostat. Are you sure you are working the thermostat and not the flame setting?
