The control is this one from Honeywell. It is the\u00a0Honeywell TH6210U2001\/U T6 Pro Programmable Thermostat. This is not the one that we were promised. They sent me information on the Lennox ComfortSense 7500 Touchscreen Thermostat when I asked for details on the heat pump. I am going to confirm that we actually got the\u00a0Lennox 14HPX heat pump and CBX25UH air handler we were promised.<\/p>\n

I went back to the house and checked. The heat pump and air handler are exactly what they are supposed to be. (Heat Pump Details and HVAC Walk-through<\/a>) I spoke to the contractor about the thermostat. He agrees that it is the wrong one. The correct one was on the purchase order. He is handling this with the company. They will put in the one we were promised.<\/p>\n
