CT410B

I bought this Honeywell Home CT410B Manual 4 Wire Premium Baseboard/Line Volt Thermostat CT410B1017 to replace a Honeywell Model Number T498B -- Electric Heat Thermostat. The old thermostat was in the apartment I've lived in for possibly as long as the building was built, 52 years ago. In any case it wasn't working. I thought that the problem may have been with the actual electric baseboard heating unit itself since an electrician told me a few years prior that the baseboard units can develop more electrical resistance over time. I dreaded having to submit a repair request to my landlord because I have so much stuff in my living room that would have had to be moved in order to access the baseboard unit which is about 9 feet in length. The older model is apparently no longer in production by the manufacturer. There are a few new old stock units for sale here by private sellers, but the price is upwards of $70 to $80. So I took a chance and ordered this newer model. The unit arrived the next day, and not a day too soon in January 2024 just as the Arctic cold was dropping the temperatures well below zero degrees Fahrenheit here in the Midwest. The job to install the new unit was straightforward and the instructions were very clear. A word to the novice: if you at all uncertain of how to remove and replace a line voltage thermostat, by all means, do not chance it: call a professional. However, if you know something about basic home electrical wiring and are absolutely certain that you can safely remove and replace a line voltage thermostat, then carefully read the instructions twice to be certain you understand what the steps are. The first and most important step is to cut the power to the unit at the electrical service breaker. Be absolutely certain you have switched the breaker to the "Off" position. If there is more than one baseboard heating unit in your house or apartment, as a precaution, switch off ALL 240V breakers for the heaters. The wires are very stiff and require a bit of careful bending to get them to fit back into the circuit box on the wall. After I installed the new unit, I switched the breaker to the "On" position and turned the temperature adjustment know slowly clockwise until I heard a little click, indicating the thermostat was sending power to the heating unit. In a matter of a few minutes, heat was literally pouring out of the baseboard unit! If you have an electric baseboard heater, this Honeywell Home thermostat is the way to go. Don't bother with any "digital" or "programmable" line voltage thermostats. They are not as reliable as this basic model. To set the temperature, and be sure you are getting the temperature you want, just put an accurate thermometer on the wall next to the thermostat and adjust the setting as needed. Follow all the instructions carefully, and stay warm!

The Honeywell CT410B is a solid manual thermostat. Installation was straightforward with clear instructions, and it works perfectly with my baseboard heater. The temperature control is accurate and simple to adjust. No fancy features—just a dependable, well-made thermostat that does the job. Great value for the price!

Some thermostats are designed for a low voltage control circuit. But if you have heaters that operate on line voltage (110v or 220v), you must have a thermostat designed for that purpose, like this Honeywell. Anyone who knows electricity will find these simple to install. Comes with 4 wires for 220v use, but can be installed to use only 2 of them, as marked. Inexpensive and easy to use. But if you want a programmable thermostat for saving money on your electric bill, Honeywell makes them also. And always get the right unit for the right voltage.

My sister and I moved into a new place a few months ago, and each room has a thermostat and fan-forced electric heaters in the wall. All of the thermostats are broken, so that, no matter what temperature you set them to, they turn the heat on full-blast and never turn it off. The only thermostat/heater on the first floor didn't even work at all. No heat! I would like to have programmable thermostats in each room, but it isn't realistic. Too expensive. The Honeywell thermostat is a good compromise for replacing old thermostats that don't work properly anymore. Once I get another one installed, it should lower our electric bill, because right now we can't always manually turn the heat off when the temperature gets high enough, so it gets too hot and we waste energy and money. Anyway, I wasn't sure if this thermostat would fix the problems we were having--I thought it might work as poorly as our old units. But it's great! We used it to replace the totally broken thermostat, and now the heat works again (we hadn't been sure whether it was the thermostat or the heater causing problems). The new thermostat turns off when it gets within a few degrees of the set temperature. But, for moderate DIYers like myself...if you don't have the equipment (possibly a multimeter/circuit tester, electrical tape, twist-on wire connectors, whatever) and the knowledge to install the thermostat, do not mess with this project on your own, especially if you're troubleshooting a heater that isn't working. This thermostat uses relatively high voltage (240V in our case), and you could injure yourself or possibly die if you screw up. It isn't especially difficult to install, but you have to know what you're doing and what to look out for. We had a knowledgeable relative help (but I might do the next one on my own since I've seen it done and this time I won't have to troubleshoot the wiring). The wiring schematic in our instruction manual was printed as a mirror image of the actual wiring, so make sure you check the labels imprinted on the back of the thermostat, and match those to the labels on the schematic.

I replaced an very old honeywell dial thermostat that came with the house. It was used to control 2 separate Singer electrix baseboard heating units in the same room. Was looking at other digits controls, but decided on this one since it supports wife range of voltage, 120v to 220v. I think my units needed 220v, so wanted to make sure I install the correct one and did nit want to take a chance. Installation took 10 mins for me. Watched bubch of youtube videos before. Connection is very simple. Thermostat came with 4 wires, i just hooked up to the existing wires in my wall. I think this one is meant to support 2 separate units/modules. Works better than the old one. Very easy to use. I turn the dial to a little over 75. Room heats up to about 72 to 73. Good enough for me. Didnt want to soend the extra 30 dollars for some added accuracy that I didn't need. This thermostat brought life back into a room that I started using as working from home office, in this covid 19 era. If you are replacing old control, just need something cheap, yet simple and functional. This is the one. Had it for 2 months or so. No problem so far.

It works

We moved into an older house. Old thermostat was installed in 1982, which is wayyy overdue! I couldn't even use the old thermostat because even if I set it to only 65 degrees, it would heat the room up to a sauna. So this one room in our house was just cold for awhile(we kept the heat off since it was too much to have it on even for 1 hour). They recommend replacing your thermostat every 10 years for this reason. We finally ordered this new Honeywell thermostat and had it installed by a professional. Wow! What a difference a brand new thermostat can make! It regulates the temp perfectly! I have it set to 70 degrees, and it feels spot on. No more sweating to death with heat on (or freezing since we weren't turning it on). It's perfect. I'm very happy. Totally worth it if you're in need of this type of thermostat.

Honeywell Manual 4 Wire Premium Baseboard/Line... sold by Jensen OK, here we go. This product comes in a nice little box and is packed well. It looks basic and works, sort of like it should.l --- This thermostat is is questionably accurate and I will explain why for keeping the room warm, it will do this, in a acceptable manner but if you require accurate temperatures, this may not be your target. I am using a 1500 watt heater, this thermostat claims "Can control up to 5,280 Watts". I will say, with your full knowledge of the following, it may be able to do just that. With my 1500 watt heater, I found the box where the contacts are, will heat up. This affects the thermal temperature control. The thermal sensor feels that heat from the switch and will falsely open or shut down the heater even though it has not attained the proper temperature. My test was done with NO ELECTRICAL BOX, the thermostat was propped up with the ventilation slots open to the air. The rear of the thermostat was open to the air.... The highest I could get the room temp was 73, this is with the thermostat set at MAX TEMPERATURE. If you try to control a heater at the recommended 5280 watts, the heat in the thermostat will be higher and the temperature level will be lower. --- The only way you will be able to get around this heat problem would be to add a relay or a solid state relay and have the thermostat control the relay. This takes the load off of the thermostat, which takes the heat away and allows the thermostat to be more accurate. -- In conclusion, this thermostat will work, it won't be accurate and it does get warm to hot. My use was with the thermostat NOT installed in a enclosure so it had free air for cooling and was still affected by the warmth generated inside the thermostat switch. Max temp I could attain was 73 with the thermostat dialed at full or max heat. The thermostat was switching off as you can hear the click so the switch was being thermally actuated. This max temperature varies so the heat was definately affecting the thermal operation. You could feel the heat on the switch case which confirmed the excess heat. -- I STRONGLY RECOMMEND if you use this thermostat, to install it in a recommended metal box/case. Do not install above a heater as the warm air from the heater will affect its ability to sense ambient air temps. I am lead to believe that this thermostat is meant to be installed in a baseboard heater unit. The Temperature at floor level is cooler and this difference in air temp may allow more approving results. Also, if you are installing this unit in a cramped/tight enclosure, you may have to arrange the wires so there is no tension on the thermo box connections. I had this in one position and it wouldn't work until I moved the wires. Note that the wires are not attached by screws, more like a spot weld so the connection is not likely to fail. If you have an operation problem, check the thermostat installation. EDIT 10-22-2018 I have done further research on this thermostat and now have been able to get good temperature control. The weakness of this thermostat is the temperature control device. It will not run the current (power) through without creating heat. When it creates heat, if makes the thermo device open prematurely. Yes, I have a fix. First, the thermostat is NOT a 220/240v thermostat unless you add a relay, where the 220/240v power is switched through the relay. I use my thermostat to run a 1500 watt heater. The thermostat is hugely unable to perform this task by itself as explained above. The answer is to take the load/current OFF OF THE THERMOSTAT. You can use a relay to do this, I used a solid state relay, about $8 from MPJA, an electronics parts reseller. With all the load on the SSRelay, the thermostat no longer has any load across the thermo unit to make it prematurely heat up and open the contacts. With the load now switched across the SS RELAY, I am getting more heat out of the heater, it is staying on until the room actually warms up then switches off as required. In short, unless you are using this thermostat for a very light load, it will not work properly for large loads UNLESS you add a relay or solid state relay to handle the heavy current from your heater device. With the result I saw with the addition of the SS Relay, I STRONGLY suggest this addition to this particular thermostat. I am not associated with the seller and did not receive any monies or product for my review 180703 1529

Es un muy buen articulo, lo uso en invernaderos con energia de 110v y es muy efectivo, monitoreo su uso con un termometro y si enciende y corta el calenton de manera correcta.

I had purchased another thermostat from a big box store, and the rep there assured me that it would turn off when it got too cold. Well come to find out it did not, and my heater in the garage was running a lot of the time. This one was great and was easily wired. It does turn off when you turn it all the way to the left. It's annoying they don't have any in Celsius, but whatever. It runs well and actually turns off my garage heater. Would totally purchase again.

ENVIO RAPIDO Y EN PERFECTO ESTADO

Installed easy and working fine. I didn't rate the accuracy section on this rating as I have not checked the cycling cycles with a thermometer.

MUY BIEN, BUENA CALIDAD
