Installation
CAUTIONS AND WARNINGS
Read and understand these instructions before installing and retaining them for future reference.
IMPORTANT: HOW DO I KNOW THIS WILL WORK WITH MY SYSTEM?
- Your existing HVAC can operate 2 stages of Heat and Cool.
- Your existing thermostat operates on 24V.
- Your system is not a 120/240V electric radiant heater.
- Your existing thermostat is not millivolt controlled.
- Your existing thermostat has 5 or more wires connected.
Insteon Thermostat is designed to operate on a minimum 5-wire, 24V HVAC unit. If you have only 4 wires you can purchase the “Add-A-Wire” adapter item #304AAW from www.smarthome.com. If you have a conventional heating and cooling system, use Insteon Wired Thermostat 2441TH If you have a heat pump heating and cooling system, use Insteon Wired Thermostat for Heat Pumps
2732-242
Note: Installation should be performed only by a qualified HVAC Technician or a homeowner who is familiar and comfortable with electrical circuitry. If you have any questions regarding installation, consult an HVAC Technician or call the Insteon Support Line at 800-762-7845.
Tools Needed
- Flathead screwdriver
- Wire cutter/stripper
Installation
Proper installation of the Insteon Thermostat will be accomplished by following these step-by-step instructions
- Do not remove wires from the existing thermostat until instructed.
- If you have an A/C, turn off the A/C breaker.
- Confirm A/C is off by turning on the air and observing that the compressor/fan does not come on.
- Turn off the breaker/fuse to the furnace.
- If the thermostat no longer functions, move to the next step.
- If the thermostat still functions, it is probably running off battery power. Try to turn on the heat.
- If the heat doesn’t turn on, move to the next step.
- Otherwise, turn off the heat and wait until the furnace fan stops, then try another breaker until the heat no longer runs.
- Remove the cover from the existing thermostat to gain access to wires (may need to detach from the wall).
- If necessary, take photos of wiring connections to help with reconnections.
- If possible while still connected, attach the “C” label to the wire connected to “C” on your thermostat. Otherwise, label the C wire once disconnected.
- Disconnect your C wire from the thermostat.
- Repeat for all your other wires, being careful to not pull off wire stickers or mar paint or wallpaper.
- Remove the existing thermostat back from the wall.
- Remove 3” of the outer jacket from the wires exposing the individually colored wires. This ensures the outer insulation does not press against the internal components of the Insteon
Thermostat upon closing the unit.
Note: if your system has 4 wires, you will need the “Add-a-Wire” adapter. See Cautions and Warnings above.)
Be careful not to tear off the labels that you previously attached to the wire ends.
- If you do not have 3” after stripping away the outer jacket, you can extend the inner wires by splicing on a new longer conductor.
- Thermostat” cabling is available at most home improvement centers. It comes in different wire configurations, but with the same gauge. If the wire you have now is 5- a conductor cable, buy a 5-conductor thermostat wire and connect it to a matching color- color.
- If wires are longer than 3”, trim them back, or make sure you can push the excess back into the wall. Be careful not to cut off the wire designation label.
- Slide all wires through a large hole in the back of the Insteon Thermostat.
- Mount Insteon Thermostat to the wall.
- To ensure accurate temperature readings:
- Carefully slide wires through provided black grommet (draft shield). See diagram.
- Peel off the protective backing.
- Rotate to the most convenient orientation for the wire entrance.
- Apply to round grommet placing indentation.

Adjusting the Reversing Valve Function
This setting tells the heap pump which mode to operate (making heat or cooling) when the compressor is activated. Most residential heat pumps operate in the “O” mode where the thermostat will energize the valve during cooling. By default, the Insteon Thermostat is set to “O” mode. Commercial systems and many models made by Rheem and Rudd operate in the “B” mode where the reversing valve is energized during heating. If your system is making heat when it is set to cooling (or visa-versa, making cool air in the heat mode), follow these steps to change the O/B setting:
- Press the MODE button to turn the system OFF
- Press and hold the PROGRAM button for 3 seconds or more to enter the User Setup Mode.
- Press the MODE repeatedly button to advance to screen 10
- Press the UP or DOWN button to change between “O” and “B” modes

Troubleshooting
Problem | Possible cause | Solution |
After screwing into wall, Insteon Thermostat’s front face pops open and has a hard time staying
closed. |
The protective shielding on the cable jacket was not stripped back enough, interfering with
components. |
Strip back protective shielding so face snaps in securely. |
The A/C is not working after installing Insteon Thermostat. | You may have accidentally shorted the common wire, which
shorted the transformer. |
Replace the common wire. |
After powering up or a factory reset, Insteon Thermostat displays a two-digit error code instead of the ambient
temperature. |
It didn’t boot up fully. | Open Insteon Thermostat and tap the reset button. Close the unit and wait for it to reboot. If problem persists, call the Insteon
Support Line. |
I replaced my Insteon Thermostat with a new one, but now SmartLinc and Insteon app don’t recognize it. | SmartLinc and the Insteon app communicate via Insteon I.D.s. They are still trying to communicate to the old
thermostat’s I.D. |
Update the Insteon I.D. on both SmartLinc and the Insteon app with your new thermostat’s I.D. |
I’ve set my thermostat to Off but my furnace or AC unit continues to run for several minutes. | Insteon Thermostat for Heat Pumps cycles your heating and cooling system for a minimum of four minutes to prevent damage
to your system. |
This is normal behavior for Insteon Thermostat for Heat Pumps. |
