HVAC guys. Thermostat assistance needed.

If you go wifi make sure you pull the new wires and hook up a "c" or power wire or even with lithium batteries they probably won't last but 4-6 weeks.

Looks like running a new wire down the wall and into the crawl space won't be to hard.

Another project for the new house.

My Honeywell (installed it two weeks ago) won't work at all without a "c" wire. I had a couple of extra wires so I made a custom "c". I love this gadget already.

Another upside of this is that the wife is always cold. So she turns the heat/ac up to a million when I'm not looking. Now she can't get away with trying to melt me. I find myself looking at the settings while I'm at work to make sure that I don't catch fire when I get home.

If you're going to run a wire, you might as well pull 18-8 t-stat wire so you have extras for 2 stage equipment in the future.

My wife is from Leadville. No temperature issues here. Haha.
