  • How to Calibrate Honeywell Thermostat

    How to Calibrate Honeywell Thermostat

    In this post, we show how to calibrate Honeywell thermostat, model RTH9580WF.  Now why would you wish to calibrate the temp reading on a thermostat (t-stat)?  Well, perhaps your Honeywell t-stat reads warmer or cooler than the room feels.  So you’d like to bring the t-stat temp reading more inline with how it really is.…

  • Reset Honeywell Thermostat RTH8580WF

    Reset Honeywell Thermostat RTH8580WF

    Gives the Reset Honeywell Thermostat RTH8580WF procedure.  Resetting clears out all user set settings. It erases the WiFi network and restores the t-stat to factory default condition. We suggest resetting when working smart thermostat problems. This rules out the chance that bad settings are causing the issue.  Keep in mind though, that after a reset,…
