I just replaced my thermostat, the main reason was that I did not have the ability to manually switch the fan on and off, it only worked when the heat or A.C. was on, I only have 3 wires in the wall. What I got was a Honeywell wireless thermostat, the receiver is what connects to the system and you can put the thermostat any place you want. I didn't even mount it to the wall, I just carry it with me from room to room, that way the room I'm in has an accurate temperature reading. If you purchase the internet gateway, you can control the thermostat using your phone or Amazon echo. This is the first time I have had a thermostat with this feature and it's very nice. Here are the links to the thermostat and the gateway if you want to go with this set up. I think it works great. Here is the link to the thermostat kit. This includes the thermostat and the receiver that will connect to the control board of your air handler. https://www.supplyhouse.com/Honeywell-Home-YTH5320R1000-RedLINK-Wireless-FocusPro-Non-Programmable-Thermostat-Kit And here is a link to the internet gateway that will allow the thermostat to be controlled with your phone and echo. https://www.supplyhouse.com/Honeywell-Home-THM6000R7001-RedLINK-Internet-Gateway
