Furnace Compatibility

Customers have mixed opinions regarding the furnace compatibility of this Honeywell Home C-Wire Power Adapter. While most customers were able to successfully install it for their Honeywell WiFi thermostats, a few encountered issues and required professional assistance or replacement with another brand's adapter.

C-Wire Adaptation

Customers generally positive about the C-Wire Adaptation feature of the product, which allows them to use newer WiFi thermostats without having a physical C-wire in their heating/cooling systems. Some customers had to switch wiring at the AC control unit and found Honeywell support helpful during installation. However, some customers mentioned that the wiring process was not straightforward if their heating/cooling system wasn't labeled properly. Overall, this product is a must-have for those who want to install a smart thermostat but only have four wires instead of five.
