- Mechanical Heat Backup This thermostat includes a bimetal switch that will automatically turn on the Heat when the temperature reaches about 41ºF (5ºC). WARNING: This switch only activates the heating terminal (W). The system itself must be capable of automatically turning the fan on. Without normal fan operation, severe damage to the heating system could result.
- Adjustable differential - thermostat is set at the factory to cycle at 2ºF (1ºC) above and below the set temperature (DIFF = 2). This setting has been designed to provide a comfortable room temperature under most conditions. However, if you find your system cycling too fast or too slow, then the DIFF can be adjusted to modify the cycle time.

from Oakland, CA on 6/9/2010Comments about Robertshaw RS3110 Digital Programmable Thermostat - 1 Heat / 1 Cool:
The Robertshaw RS3110 replaces a 12 year Honeywell programmable thermostat which came with our forced air single stage gas furnace. Wiring is simple; just 2 wires between the furnace and thermostat. The new unit is easily mounted on an existing steel wall plate. I saved a lot of money doing the installation myself. The large digital display and large pushbuttons are big improvements over the Honeywell.
from Baltimore, Md on 2/24/2010Comments about Robertshaw RS3110 Digital Programmable Thermostat - 1 Heat / 1 Cool:
I like the fact that the thermostat can be on the table in front of me during the programing.
Note: I added a LED to the circuit that tells me when the circulating pump is energized.
from Winston Salem, NC on 1/31/2010Comments about Robertshaw RS3110 Digital Programmable Thermostat - 1 Heat / 1 Cool:
While the unit is easy to install, I have to agree with an earlier reviewer who complained about the quality of the instruction sheet. Type is a bear to read in the illustrations and this made the installation much harder than it needed to be. Had to get out a magnifier to read some of them. It's all about attention to details = and this printing job needs lots of attention.

from Northern NJ on 1/12/2010Comments about Robertshaw RS3110 Digital Programmable Thermostat - 1 Heat / 1 Cool:
I needed a thermostat that could be set with a differential (+/-) because I would get a horrible oil smell when my furnace cycled too fast with a precise thermostat. This one was perfect. Plus, the differential adjusts easily if need be.

This unit is easy to install. It works almost exactly like a design I had amagined even before I knew about this unit.

from Anaheim, ca on 9/3/2009Comments about Robertshaw RS3110 Digital Programmable Thermostat - 1 Heat / 1 Cool:
I bought two of these units to replace two Honeywell units. I thought they would be simple to install. Just follow the directions, label the wires as noted. Did that! However, how do you figure which wire goes where when the directions are badly printed and you cannot read the smeared printing? Go to their website to get a crisp version right? Wrong! Same thing. OK call tech support...not open on weekends. Not even the hardware store can figure out. OK I figured it out by calling an AC guy. No thanks to Robert Shaw!
from Charleston, SC on 2/3/2009Comments about Robertshaw RS3110 Digital Programmable Thermostat - 1 Heat / 1 Cool:
I have set the unit to bring up the temp in the morning and reduce it at bedtime. Easy to set or
override if needed. Much better that that old bi-metal unit that I had for so long. Can't wait to see the saving on the electric bill.
Very prompt and well packaged delivery from ProTherostats.

from Long Island New York on 12/9/2008Comments about Robertshaw RS3110 Digital Programmable Thermostat - 1 Heat / 1 Cool:
The most important feature regarding this product is the Temperature differential. This means you can adjust the burner to go on and off with respect to the temp. For Example: + or - 1 degrees differential means that if you set your thermostat to 70, the heat would come on at 69 and go off at 71. This actually uses less fuel and causes less wear and tear on your burner by cycling it less often. Other thermostats have no Temp differential adjustment and is Permanently set at about a .25 degrees Differential. This means that the burner come on and off 4 times more to maintain that exact temp. Yes other thermostats have a cycle differential, but not a temprature differential, so if it is very cold outside, the burner will keep coming on to try and maintain that .25 degree differential. I found that my burner was running all the time and constantly turning on and off every 15 minutes. I swithed to the Robertshaw and me and my burner are very happy now.
