I spent over an hour trying to program this POS, and all I wanted to do was reset it to run manually. Living in Florida I don’t use the heat, just the AC. I want it 72° all the time. I don’t keep a routine schedule - just keep the damn house 72°. Why does that have to be so difficult?

@michaelstoltz58 8 лет назад

I've had to deal with a few different types of thermostats in the course of maintenance. I tell people to go by a plain old thermostat with a heat and cool button, and a simple thermostat adjustment. Then you set it at the temperature you want, and walk away from it. Seems to work better than all the hoops these companies want the customers to jump thru.

@Crosby4hyg 5 лет назад

The fact that this video has almost 800k views is a testament to what an absolute piece of garbage this thermostat is. I've bought a separate thermometer just to test the accuracy of the temperature it displays on the left, and it's consistently off by almost 15 degrees. I'll come home from work, set the temperature to cool at 66 degrees and make sure that the hold button is engaged. I'll come back 30 minutes later sweating, finding that it's magically readjusted itself up to 87 degrees, still says it's on hold. WTF? The program feature isn't necessary at all, and is extremely nonintuitive. Any landlords considering buying this for their apartments due to its undoubtedly cheap cost should strongly reconsider. You get what you pay for, and you'll have a lot of very unhappy tenants.

@emmittpenny3329 5 лет назад

Absolutely right!!! Ours consistently does the magical jump in temperature despite "hold" setting. The manual we received, only covers the non-programmable. No explanation for the buttons what so ever.

@jonbrichoux5988 Год назад

This helped me, thanks. But I do have one constructive feedback - like a ton of technician videos on all topics, you say "Just remove the cover" and in a tenth of a second in the video you just pull it off. Do you realize that a lot of us lay people have spent many minutes pulling and poking and yanking and don't know how to get the cover off without breaking it? It's much easier to get the cover off once you understand exactly how it's clipped on, which is impossible to know from the outside.

@karenbrehmer540 4 года назад

Man alive, you have GOT to tell us how to turn off "Hold". Resetting programs makes sense: Hold down Time and Up/Down and the same time to reset PROGRAMS - but so far, nothing has shown how to undo/reset/turn off "Hold". I am crying. Well, not really, but this does suck. Husband touched every button because he thought the thermostat didn't work. It did. Now I'm here in the comments, and he's making me a grilled cheese. I have programmed our thermostat to have a desired temp, since our Hold is set to 85 - 85!! At least I got a grilled cheese and you all got a story. (I'll post a reply with the "Hold" answer if our maintenance dude helps us out.)

@Servicechampions 10 лет назад

Addison Dewitt - Great question. White Rodgers 1F78 thermostat is a programmable only type of thermostat. You can not remove the programming on it but you can use the HOLD button to override the programming.

For anyone who is stuck and cannot turn off their hvac system, what you need to do is turn the thermostat to auto fan and cool, then you set the temp one or two degrees below the temp that is displayed on the screen and that should turn it off within a couple of minutes.

@TonyPadgett 5 лет назад

I might be going a bit crazy, but I wanted the heater to shut off at 11pm and then automatically turn on at 6am. So, I programmed it by setting the temp very low at 11pm (60 degrees) and then up to 78 at 6am. Well, I found the thermostat was turning the heat on about an hour early. I was very perplexed. Then, I thought perhaps the time is the “desired” temperature at THAT time. So, I did this. I set the temp to be 78 at 6am and then before that I put another set point of 60 at 5:45 am. This seems to work. Odd since I would have thought the time mean exactly when it should turn on.

@aldon78 6 лет назад

I rather control temp myself. Go to work set it up on 78, come back at 6PM from work bring it down to 74, ready to go to bed lower to 72, plain and simple...

@shannoncrowe5673 5 лет назад

A couple of notes. Make sure you are using batteries with plenty of juice. I changed batteries and thought they were fine as there were still numbers lit up on the display and the AC could be turned on, just not controlled by programming or using the buttons to raise or lower the temp. Also, to reset mine I needed to remove the left battery, turn on the fan and heat and let it sit for about 2 minutes. Then the numbers magically fade away, and it was ready to be reset (common sense right?). Anyway then you stick the fresh batteries in and the up/down temperature control works. The HOLD light is stuck at always visible, but it seems to be overuled by the cold/heat and temperature controls, so I guess that doesn't matter. A new one is supposedly on the way, but these instructions worked for a quick fix - Good Luck.

@Servicechampions 9 лет назад

Hello hippypancake, On this thermostat there is a few ways to accomplish this. The first way is to set the temperature at your desired number and press the HOLD button. It will stay at this number until you change it. The second way to do it is by setting the program to your desired numbers and times.

I would prefer it actually work instead of being programable as the temp in my house slowly plummets so can I assume this model # 1F78 is broken if I already: tried changing batteries, took and and put in the batteries, tried turning off the main circuit breaker for 4o mts and back on, tried pressing hold, or the other buttons, etc tried doing the reset if I understood correctly and held both ^ buttons while turning from off to heat, and despite all these attempts to reset it still says hold at 60 degrees when I turn it on . I guess I should be glad now it is now putting out heat but then will probably stop soon and the hold now says 60 while the inside says 62 - any advice ?

@Servicechampions 7 лет назад

Hello Esther. This is a common service call we receive all the time. It seems that the air in your home is not being properly conditioned. There are many variables why your home is not reaching your desired temperature. Ultimately you will need to call a local HVAC contractor to come out to your home for service. If you are in Southern California, we can be of service. Before you call you contractor, here are a few things you should let him/her know. Does air come out of your vents? if so, is it cool or warm air? Does a lot of air come out of your vents or just a small amount? is your outdoor unit, condenser, running? These are a few items your hvac contractor would look for and troubleshoot. Aside from the connection between your thermostat and your central air system. Begin your search for a hvac contractor that has great 3rd party reviews.
