Venstar's Add-A-Wireless Thermostat Works With Slimline Platinum Thermostat to Control Temperature in Any Room, From Any Room

Add-A-Wireless Acts as Remote Control for Slimline Platinum Thermostat


CHATSWORTH, CA--(Marketwire - Aug 8, 2012) - Venstar®, a leading thermostat and energy management systems supplier, today introduced its Add-A-Wireless Thermostat, Model T1119RF, that works with Venstar's Slimline Platinum thermostat as a remote control. This accessory allows the homeowner to monitor and adjust the temperature of any room in the home, from anywhere in the home. The main features of the fully electronic Add-A-Wireless Thermostat include quick and easy five-minute installation and a large, easy-to-read back-lit display. 

"Residents love the Add-A-Wire Thermostat because you can turn up the heat -- or turn on the air conditioning -- without getting out of bed or off the sofa," said Steve Dushane, president and CEO of Venstar Inc. "The quick and easy five-minute installation is a breeze. Simply plug in the wireless module into a Slimline Platinum Thermostat and start using the Add-A-Wireless Thermostat to control the temperature of any room with the touch of a button. There are absolutely no wires to run. The thermostat with the last button pressed is the one in control."

The Add-A-Wireless Thermostat transmits up to 500 feet, through walls and floors, using 418 Mhz that should not interfere with other electronic systems. The thermostat has non-volatile memory and dual set point with adjustable deadbands. The Add-A-Wireless thermostat also has a keypad lockout so that thermostat changes are made only when intended by the user. An optional power supply (ACC0800) is available.

Venstar's Add-A-Wireless Thermostat is compatible with Venstar's Slimline Platinum Thermostat Models T1800 and T1900. For more details, please visit www.venstar.com/Thermostats/T1119RF.
