Description
The Honeywell Home RTH8560D1002 T5 Retail Touchscreen is a straightforward programmable thermostat that’s easy to hand off to a homeowner but still checks the boxes techs care about: clear touchscreen, simple scheduling, and dependable control. It also uses Smart Response learning to catch up to setpoints on time and can run on batteries or 24VAC (with a common wire) depending on the job.
Key Features & Benefits
Easy-To-Program Touchscreen
Big, backlit touchscreen makes it quick to set up and easier for homeowners to use without confusion.
Smart Response Recovery
Learns how the system heats/cools so it can start earlier and hit the scheduled temp when it’s supposed to.
Flexible Scheduling Options
Set it up as 7-day, 5–2, or one schedule all week—whatever fits the homeowner’s routine.
Auto Heat/Cool Changeover
Helpful in swing seasons so the stat can switch modes automatically instead of relying on the homeowner.
Dual Power Options
Can be battery powered, or run on 24VAC when a C-wire is available (batteries can still provide backup).
Indoor Humidity Readout
Lets the homeowner see indoor humidity at the stat, which can help explain comfort complaints.
Service-Friendly Reminders & Protection
Filter reminders, low-battery alerts, and short-cycle protection help reduce nuisance issues and prevent rapid compressor cycling.
