The thermostat in our house is located in the only good place to put the tv. The tv puts off enough heat to affect the thermostat. I was going to relocate the thermostat but got to looking into wireless units. I thought this would give us a lot of flexibility in placement. Just wanted to see if anyone has any experience with them and what brands. I have been researching the Honeywell units so far.

I think with Honeywell you can use the current location and add a comfort remote and use it as the thermostat for wherever it is. Not sure what models work with it though. I have a wifi Honeywell and it works great but I have it in a good location and don’t need a remote. That way you can just use the old wiring and add on a remote for the other room.
I will have to look into that. It would be a lot easier than having to install the unit next to the furnace and having to rewire it. Thanks for the info.JerryNY wrote:

I don’t know man I was messy in with the nest at lowes today and that thing is pretty cool.

Wireless is all fine and good but it’s always the interface between the wired and wireless that’s the tricky part 😛
I think convincing my wife to move the tv and rearrange the living room might be an easier solution!
