Best Thermostat For Baseboard Heated Homes!
Although I bought this item from Home Depot, it's still the same product at the same price. I'm so satisfied with it, I want to let others with baseboard heating nightmares to know there is a reasonable solution.

If you have baseboard heat, you probably have trouble maintaining a comfortable temperature without constantly messing with the thermostats.
My old non-programmable termostats (tried 3 different models) were never accurate (off by up to 10 deg) and I had to hang thermometers beside them to keep track.

This product ALWAYS warms the room to the tempurature I set it.
The programmable feature allows me to turn it down at night and during the day.
I can literally set it and forget it.
Also too, with a proper program set, I nolonger have to run it all night and day, using less electricity and saving me money.
And with a push of a button I can turn it up or down, on-the-fly.
The next programmed time will set the temperature back on schedule.
There is a "manual mode" if you prefer the temperature to stay the same throughout the day and night.

I'm planning on buying more of these to put in all my first level rooms.
But at $50 each, I'll change them out one at a time.
(The non-programmable version is around $35.)

Installation is easy and can be done in 5 mins.
Took me less than 10 mins to figure out the 7 day program function and get it the way I wanted.
With a built in digital temperature gauge, you won't have to hang your own.

Bottom Line...
The RLV430 just makes sense (and cents). It really works well.
It's very easy to use and install.
I can recommend this item with full confidence that it's one of the best thermostats available for baseboard heated homes.

Didn't last long!
Had the RLV430 Theromstat for about one month. Went to change the tempture and got a big static zap from it. Static must have been from walking across the rug. Now it doesn't work at all. Time to hook up the old manual thermostat.

This thermostat worked great when it did. I wouldn't buy it again because it can't stand up to a static zap. To me that is something that could happen any time in any house. Should be able to stand up to something like that.

Temperature anticipator not working
I purchased two of these for my Cadet wall heaters. They work great until the get close to the target temperature. Then they cycle on and off every 5 seconds or so.

I tried to call the Honeywell help line. They are only there from 9-4. I spent an hour searching the web for a manual showing how to adjust the temperature anticipators.

I am going to take these out and get LUX which I have in my other rooms.
