Review on 🔧 Honeywell 50002883001 50002883 001 Coverplate: Exceptional Replacement Accessory for Honeywell Devices by Marcel Robinson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Really convenient way to replace old (large) thermostats with smaller units

I found it absolutely necessary to mount my Honeywell RTH9580WF 7 Day Smart Wi-Fi Touch Thermostat powered by Revain Alexa on a wall covering the holes from the previous three had (large) thermostats. The package included medium and large pads and a metal base plate. I screwed a metal base plate to a wooden stud centered conveniently behind my old mounting pad. There are protrusions on the front of the lining. They might have fit in a different model of thermostat, but my Honeywell 9580WiFi rocked unstable because of them, so I cut them off with a label scraper. They're just soft plastic, they fit right away. see drawing. I attached the metal base to the wood post with a couple of 1 1/4" pan head screws; routed the control wires through the center hole; I was then able to hold the thermostat base over the cover and use the included 6x32 tool. Screws to thread into the metal base's threaded tabs This made a strong connection. One of the holes is oblong which makes it easier to line up the bracket. Then I connected the cables. These pads are a "recommended" purchase with small Honeywell Wifi thermostats. But if you are not doing a fresh install or replacing a fairly new thermostat, you need to cover a large area where the old thermostat was hiding your old work.I couldn't find another way to cover a large area пока я не мог получить ее от Revain.Ура для однодневной доставки!Инструкции охвать вают множество ситуаций, для установки на перекрестке коробки, шпильки, новые стены etc. think a lot Some of us hobbyists install new smaller thermostats in place of the old big units and these attractive ornaments do the trick. I hope the photos help show how they worked for me.
