 Best thermostat with excellent remote Aug 30, 2007
By Serious Sirius User
I purchased a LUX TX9000RF programmable thermostat as I wanted to be able to remotely control my AC and Heat from my bedroom for those times when I want to make minor temperature changes. The installation was easy, instructions clear, and this item works PERFECTLY. I threw out my old Honeywell setback thermostat as the Lux has several good default programs for saving energy. I highly recommend this unit for anyone who wants better control of AC or heat at odd times. One button on the remote resets the original settings or you can HOLD a certain temp for any amount of time. A++ quality. Well done, Lux.

Love It!! Aug 10, 2008
By Rebecca13K
This was one of the best purchases I have made. I was so tired of waking up in the middle of the night and having to walk downstairs to adjust the temperatute. This thermostat and remote control work exactly as advertised. The only slight difference I notice is that the temperature reading for the house does not seem to be quite as sensitive as my old thermostat, so sometimes you have to set it a little cooler than you would think to get it to click on. But a small price to pay for the convenience of not walking downstairs in the middle of the night. You will not be disappointed.

Great energy savings Sep 25, 2007
By T. Heyn
This is a great unit--easy installation (about 30 minutes for a non-HVAC expert) and good directions. The remote has a great range--I operate it across a 3,000+ SF home with no problems. Multiple channels are available, so if you're like me, you can install multiple remotes to control multiple thermostats.
What heavily impresses me with this unit is how it conserves energy in a way that cuts my utility bill. When the air conditioning is activated (perhaps for the furnance, too--I don't know because it's September here in San Diego and I can wait to find out), the unit will spool up the compressor to cool the air and eventually turn off the compressor while still blowing.
In other words, you get the benefit of additional cool air while only paying for the fan and not the more energy-hungry air conditioner. I heard of this method of energy savings before but was highly skeptical on the actual benefits it would deliver. Suffice it to say that I'm now a believer.

Great Product: Lux TX9000RF Programmable Thermostat with Remote Dec 22, 2008
By A. Beyer
Consumer Reports recommended the Lux TX9000RF Programmable Thermostat with Remote as a great value. We concur. Easy installation instructions provided and a video is also from Lux website.
Both my wife & I dreaded leaving our warm bed to turn up the thermostat on those cold winter mornings. This programmable thermostat solves this problem on a regular basis (pre-programmed times & temperature settings). On those mornings when we wake before the std. time, our remote control allows us to set the desired temperature without leaving the warmth of our bed. I wish that this product was available in Minnesota when I was a kid in the 1960's!
Happy & warm in North Carolina...........

Highly Functional_And User Friendly Jul 11, 2009
By T. L. Collins
This thermostat offers some pretty nice features. If you live in an environment that is prone to temperature and humidity extremes, as we do here in Arizona, then having a remote control is very handy for tweaking the thermostat's settings by a degree or two without having to drop your studies or get out of bed to do it. Since the remote is a radio frequency (RF) control, adjustments can be made from any room in the house. Walls do not interfere with signals that this remote control unit sends to the thermostat. When you adjust the thermostat using the remote control the unit automatically reverts to settings you have programmed as soon as the desired temperature has been attained. The remote also has a cancel button that allows you to revert to your programmed settings at any time.
This unit can save you quite a bit of money if it is installed in an appropriate place and programmed properly. The ideal place to locate a thermostat is 5 feet above the floor on a wall that is in an open area such as a living or dining room, which is not exposed to drafts. The thermostat needs to sense the ambient temperature of the room. If it is placed in a drafty location, the thermostat will not be able to properly control the temperature, because it will send false readings to your air handling unit.
The problem I was experiencing prior to installing this thermostat stemmed from the fact that the thermostat was mounted in a hallway, immediately beneath the return air duct for the a/c unit. Subsequently, the thermostat would sense a perpetual flow of heat in the air streaming past it and would send false signals to the A/C unit telling it operate much more than it needed to. On a 110+ degree day the A/C unit would run almost perpetually. Thus, coolant in the unit was not able to rest and adequately recover from the heat it was absorbing during protracted cycles.
The solution was 15 feet of 4-conductor #20 AWG (Solid Copper) cable from a hardware store, which I butt spliced to the cable that was originally installed in the wall. This allowed me to locate the Lux thermostat on a living room wall about 8 feet from the location of the old thermostat. This has cut the time my air conditioner runs by about 20 percent, and the nice thing about this thermostat is that it monitors the time that the air handling unit runs, by providing read-outs for hours and minutes utilized on a daily basis -- i.e. yesterday, today, and the total for the month.
Lux has great customer service, so if you need help installing this thermostat you may well be able to do it yourself. Even if you need to pay an electrician for an hour, 20 percent off of a few $400+ electricity bills adds up pretty fast.
