Comments about Aprilaire Aprilaire 8463 Programmable 1 Heat/1 Cool Thermostat:

For the money, I really dont think you can beat it. There are others that do more, but overall they cost much more and not sure it reaally benefits the overall reason too having a programable thermostat...saving money

Comments about Aprilaire Aprilaire 8463 Programmable 1 Heat/1 Cool Thermostat:

I've had it installed a few months now and it seems to be working great. I bought it for the circulate function (and the price). I have two zones in my house (with separate thermostats and HVAC gear). I use this one in the zone that I don't use much (and keep colder/hotter in the winter/summer) but would still like the air to be circulated in there.

I also like the white/dark gray display a lot better than the ugly green of my other (Honeywell) thermostat. If I ever have to replace the Honeywell I'd buy another one of these.

It was easy to install it myself as a very non-handy kind of guy.

Comments about Aprilaire Aprilaire 8463 Programmable 1 Heat/1 Cool Thermostat:

I have owned and installed several Aprilaire thermostats in different homes over the years. This is the best thermostat for the money. Easy install, easy programming, once you figure out the buttons to manipulate the menus. My only flaw in this thermostat is there is a lot of information on the display at one time, which lends to smaller fonts and possibly harder to read for some. Maybe there should have been imbedded menus? Overall I would still give this thermostat an A-.
