Y8196A (T8196A Thermostat/
Q682A Subbase) Heating/Cooling New
Construction Thermostat/Subbase
Package—Installation Instructions
Preparation
Check thermostat and subbase suitability for the heat-
ing, cooling, or heating/cooling system. Refer to Table 1.
Assemble tools required: flat bladed screwdriver, hand
or power drill with 3/16-in. drill bit, wire cutter/stripper or
sharp knife, bubble level or plumb bob and line.
Assure power is off to the heating, cooling, or heating/
cooling system at the main fuse panel. Most buildings have
a separate switch box or circuit breaker for disconnecting
power to the heating and cooling (if applicable) equipment.
This thermostat is compatible with virtually all heating,
cooling or heating/cooling systems. Refer to Table 1 for
additional thermostat compatibility information.
TABLE 1—THERMOSTAT AND SYSTEM COMPATIBILITY.
Type of Heating System
to be Controlled Conditions/Compatibility
Electric (Line Voltage)—typical baseboard and
radiant • The R8239D1015 Isolating Relay or R841 Silent Switching
Center must be installed in the thermostat control circuit. a
Gas—Direct Spark Ignition (DSI), Intermittent
Pilot (IP), and Standing Pilot (SP) • Compatible.
Heat Pump • Compatible. Assure correct subbase identity is selected for fan
control and changeover control (O terminal for cool and B
terminal for heat). Jumper Y to W for heat pump compressor
control.
Hot Water Zone • Honeywell 2-wire valves are compatible.
• Some non-Honeywell 2-wire valves require an R8239D1015
Isolating Relay in the thermostat control circuit. a
• Some 3-wire valves require an R8239A1052 Isolating Relay
in the thermostat control circuit. a, b
Oil • Compatible.
Vent Damper • Honeywell damper motors are compatible.
• Some non-Honeywell damper motors require an R8239D1015
Isolating Relay in the thermostat control circuit. a Check
control amperage requirement.
Warm Air Zone • Most are compatible.
a If thermostat is not compatible with the system being controlled, the system will not operate. No hazard exists. The thermostat
will not be damaged unless it is used to directly control a line voltage system. A Honeywell R841 or R8239D1015 Isolating
Relay must be added to the thermostat control circuit for proper system operation.
b Consult manufacturer for installation requirements.
