Amazon.com Product Description

Offering versatile operation and energy savings, the Lux TX9000RF Programmable Thermostat has remote control that allows you to make temperature adjustments from virtually anywhere in your home. This battery powered seven-day programmable thermostat is packed with innovative features, and it's compatible with most 24-volt heating and air conditioning systems.

TX9000RF Programmable Thermostat At a Glance: Seven-day programmable thermostat offers four periods per day Radio-frequency remote controls temperature from anywhere in your home Easy programming, with the use of the patented Lux Speed Dial and large, backlit display Saves money and energy without sacrificing comfort Compatible with most 24-volt heating and air conditioning systems

The radio-frequency remote lets you change the temperature from almost anywhere in your home.

Multiple Programming Options
One of the easiest ways to reduce utility costs is to program your thermostat to fit your schedule. The TX9000RF lets you create a different program for every day of the week, and you can enter four different time periods and temperature settings in a 24-hour period. And when you're away from home, you can use the vacation hold option to ensure that you're not paying to heat or cool an empty house.

Control the Temperature from Anywhere in Your Home
Unlike infrared remotes that require a direct path, the TX9000RF's remote uses radio frequency, so you can change the temperature from most anywhere in your home through walls, floors, and ceilings--even if you're several rooms away from the thermostat.

Accurate, User-Friendly Design
Featuring the latest in digital technology for highly accurate temperature control and a patented Lux Speed Dial for easy programming, the TX9000RF is precise and user friendly. For further convenience, an EL backlight improves visibility in low-light conditions and makes it easy to read the time and temperature.

Save Money and the Environment
Like all programmable thermostats, the TX9000RF helps reduce energy consumption, but this efficient device takes savings a step further. To maximize your home's energy efficiency, the TX9000RF comes preprogrammed with a default heating and cooling schedule that's designed to save up to $500 in energy costs over a year, and can also help cut down on your carbon footprint. Because the TX9000RF is 100% mercury free, you can be sure it's a safe and environmentally conscious choice for your home.

Compatible with Most 24-Volt Heating and Air Conditioning Systems
The TX9000RF is compatible with most 24-volt heating and air conditioning systems, including forced air, single stage, and central air systems, heat pumps without auxiliary heat, hot water baseboard and steam heat radiators, and 750 millivolt systems (gas fireplaces/wall heaters).

Six "AA" alkaline batteries are required for operation (batteries not included).

5.0 out of 5 stars Best thermostat with excellent remote, August 30, 2007

This review is from: Lux TX9000RF Programmable Thermostat with Remote (Tools & Home Improvement)

I purchased a LUX TX9000RF programmable thermostat as I wanted to be able to remotely control my AC and Heat from my bedroom for those times when I want to make minor temperature changes. The installation was easy, instructions clear, and this item works PERFECTLY. I threw out my old Honeywell setback thermostat as the Lux has several good default programs for saving energy. I highly recommend this unit for anyone who wants better control of AC or heat at odd times. One button on the remote resets the original settings or you can HOLD a certain temp for any amount of time. A++ quality. Well done, Lux.

This was one of the best purchases I have made. I was so tired of waking up in the middle of the night and having to walk downstairs to adjust the temperatute. This thermostat and remote control work exactly as advertised. The only slight difference I notice is that the temperature reading for the house does not seem to be quite as sensitive as my old thermostat, so sometimes you have to set it a little cooler than you would think to get it to click on. But a small price to pay for the convenience of not walking downstairs in the middle of the night. You will not be disappointed.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great energy savings, September 25, 2007

This is a great unit--easy installation (about 30 minutes for a non-HVAC expert) and good directions. The remote has a great range--I operate it across a 3,000+ SF home with no problems. Multiple channels are available, so if you're like me, you can install multiple remotes to control multiple thermostats.

What heavily impresses me with this unit is how it conserves energy in a way that cuts my utility bill. When the air conditioning is activated (perhaps for the furnance, too--I don't know because it's September here in San Diego and I can wait to find out), the unit will spool up the compressor to cool the air and eventually turn off the compressor while still blowing.

In other words, you get the benefit of additional cool air while only paying for the fan and not the more energy-hungry air conditioner. I heard of this method of energy savings before but was highly skeptical on the actual benefits it would deliver. Suffice it to say that I'm now a believer.
