FAQ:

*what is a C wire?

The C wire originates from your heating/cooling system and provides 24 volt 
power to your Lyric.  

The C wire originates from your heating/cooling system and provides 24 volt 
power to your Lyric. "C" stands for common and there is no universal color used 
to designate this type of wire. If you do not have a C wire, your Lyric will 
instead draw power from your heating and cooling systems to power its battery. 

 

* I am having difficulty removing my old thermostat?

Often, the thermostat will separate from the wallplate with moderate pressure. 
Other times, there might be small screws holding the device in place. If you 
are unable to pull it off, please refer to your thermostat manufacturer's 
website or manual for removal instructions. NOTE: Do not place your old 
thermostat in the trash if it contains mercury in a sealed tube. Contact the 
Thermostat Recycling Corporation at http://www.thermostat-recycle.org/ or 
1-800-238-8192 for information on how and where to properly and safely dispose 
of your old thermostat. 

 

 

* What is the range or distance of the Wi-Fi signal in my thermostat?

The range or distance of the Wi-Fi signal is determined by your router. Check 
your router's manual for additional information. It is possible that your 
thermostat is unable to find or maintain reliable connectivity to your Wi-Fi 
network because of a poor signal from the router. For example, most homes have 
“dead spots” where Wi-Fi signals are unreliable. Since the Lyric thermostat is 
fixed to the wall, this problem can be corrected by moving your router to a 
better location or by setting up a repeater - a device that will pick up and 
rebroadcast the wireless signal from your router to your thermostat. You can 
either purchase and install a Wi-Fi repeater, or configure an additional router 
to serve as a repeater. Most standard routers can be configured as a repeater. 

 

 

* I cannot connect to my guest network. What do I need to do?

Some wireless routers have advanced features like guest networks. It is 
recommended that you connect your thermostat to your home network. If you must 
connect to your guest network, then you will need to contact the router 
manufacture to assist in unblocking port 443 in the guest network firewall. 

 

* Are the MAC ID and MAC CRC case sensitive?

No, the MAC ID and MAC CRC are not case sensitive. Upper and lower case 
characters will work.

 

* What tools or materials are necessary for the installation of my new 
thermostat?

In most cases, the only tools and materials required are a small flat edge 
screwdriver, #2 phillips screwdriver, your thermostat ID card (located in the 
box), and your home Wi-Fi Network password. 

 

 

 

* How do I know if my old thermostat contains mercury?

The thermostat will have a glass tube with a silver liquid inside of the tube. 
Mercury is typically found in older mechanical thermostats like the Honeywell 
Round T87 and rectangular T8090.
NOTE: Do not place your old thermostat in the trash if it contains mercury in a 
sealed tube. Contact the Thermostat Recycling Corporation at 
http://www.thermostat-recycle.org/ or 1-800-238-8192 for information on how and 
where to properly and safely dispose of your old thermostat. 

 

* Do I need a C wire to install my new thermostat?

Yes - the C wire is necessary because it provides power to your new thermostat.

 

* My heating and cooling system has a terminal labeled "COM". What is a COM 
terminal and what do I do with it?

A COM terminal is often used as another name for the C terminal and issued to 
provide power to your thermostat. COM can also refer to a communication circuit 
and will not provide power to the thermostat. If you have both a C and COM 
terminal on your heating and cooling system the thermostat should be wired to 
the C terminal. Please refer to the Quick Start Guide for more information. 

 

* An extra unused wire in the wall can be used as the C wire for your new 
thermostat. The extra wire  

 

 

* What is My Total Connect Comfort? 

My Total Connect Comfort is a web portal for remote access to Honeywell Wi-Fi 
thermostats. 

 

*Can I have multiple locations registered under my account?

Yes, your my Total Connect Comfort account allows you to have multiple 
locations registered under one account.
