Removing the Old Thermostat
Before removing the old thermostat, ensure the power to your HVAC system is turned off. This is essential for safety and to prevent electrical shock. Locate the circuit breaker controlling your HVAC system and switch it to the “OFF” position. You should also check for any residual power using a voltage tester before proceeding.
Once the power is off, carefully remove the old thermostat from the wall. Note the location of the wires and their corresponding terminals. To avoid confusion during the installation of the new thermostat, use a permanent marker to label each wire with its terminal designation. For example, mark the wire connected to the “R” terminal as “R.” Carefully disconnect the wires one by one, ensuring you maintain the correct order.
Set the old thermostat aside. You may need to refer to its wire connections for the new thermostat installation.
Connecting the Wires
With the old thermostat removed and the wires labeled, it’s time to connect the wires to your new Honeywell TH6220D1028 thermostat. Refer to the wiring diagram provided in the installation manual for the correct terminal connections. Ensure the power to your HVAC system remains off during this step.
Carefully align the wires with their corresponding terminals on the new thermostat. Use the labels you created earlier to ensure correct connections. For example, the wire labeled “R” should be connected to the “R” terminal on the thermostat. Secure the wires in their terminals using the screws provided. Double-check each connection to ensure they are secure and that no wires are loose or touching.
After connecting all the wires, carefully push them back into the thermostat housing, ensuring they are not pinched or damaged.
Mounting the Thermostat
With the wires connected, you can now mount the Honeywell TH6220D1028 thermostat to the wall. The thermostat comes with a mounting plate that simplifies the installation process. Choose a location that is easily accessible and away from direct sunlight or heat sources.
The best place for the thermostat is the room where you spend the most time, such as the living room or kitchen. Place the thermostat about one and a half meters above the floor, on a wall that isn’t exposed to direct sunlight or drafts. Ensure the mounting surface is clean and smooth.
Align the mounting plate with the wall, ensuring it is level. Use a pencil to mark the screw holes. Drill pilot holes at the marked spots, if necessary, and then secure the mounting plate to the wall using the screws provided. Once the mounting plate is securely fixed, carefully clip the thermostat onto the mounting plate. Make sure it clicks into place, ensuring a secure connection.
