Honeywell Thermostat


I have a Honeywell TH8320up1011 Thermostat that I had in my other home...Had both gas furnace and air conditioning unit. Now I have baseboard heat and electric air conditioning. Tried several ways to wire but thermostate for the air conditioner but not successful. Have 4 wires...Only the red, green & yellow(blue) were used on existing thermostate. There is a white wire available.

Honeywell Thermostat


hot water baseboard? if you have a stand alonf with no zone valves then it is just adding an isolating relay down on the boiler.then wire the R and W for the heat the AC side Rc/Rh,G,Y s normal connections down into the air handler .the reson for the isolating relay is the boiler has it's own transformer so your just closing the relay to call the boiler in

If you're trying to wire for A/C ONLY, then you need only Red, Green and Yellow terminals on the t'stat. You wouldn't use the White terminal at all (that's the Heat load). They should be tied to your current thermostat's R, G and Y terminals. If not, then take some pictures and post them back here.

No, electric baseboard. Each room has seperate switch/thermo.
