Hey yall
Had to get an all new furnace and heat pump installed. I opted for the Honewell thermostat. I don’t want this thing on my wifi. I don’t need to have it connected right?
“They” are saying it has to be on wifi so it can see the outdoor temp to talk to the heat pump. Bullshit i say.


right now it’s on a vlan but I have it isolated. I refuse to believe it’s not going to work without wifi. I’m just going to disable the wifi and see. My old Trane from 1987 didn’t have this issue. Old things truly were better ;)
