Question 1

Can this unit be set to allow a large temp. swing before turning on/off to maintain room temperature, rather than turning on/off every few seconds?

Accepted Answer

This has the ability to be used for wall fan units if this is what you are asking (meaning it won't turn on/off every couple seconds). It is in the settings (by default it is set for baseboards; meaning it will turn on/off regularly). After you install it, read the instructions and change to a fan unit.

Question 2

How many watts is the Honeywell RLV4305A1000/E 5-2 Day Programmable Thermostat for Electric Baseboard Heaters good for?

Accepted Answer

It's good for a resistive load up to 14.6 amp. The wattage will depend on whether it's 240v or 120v. Roughly 3500 W at 240V, 1750W at 120V, per the user's manual. It's only good for a resistive load like a baseboard heater, not an inductive load like a relay.

Question 3

buying this for a ski resort condo wher power outages are common and water pipes are prone to freezing. Will it automatically start after outages?

Accepted Answer

There is a built-in internal backup of the clock and program that is rated for five hours, and this feature has always worked for me as stated on my three units. I have frequent short power blips, and have never had to reset the clocks or programming. Also, even if the program and clock time are lost, the thermostat already has a DEFAULT safety temperature of 41F. That is, even if you don't set it or program it or otherwise tell it to come on, the thermostat will still try to run your heat if the temp in the room hits 41 degrees, to protect your pipes and such. In the settings, you can adjust the minimum "safety temperature" from 41 to something else, but, of course, if the power goes out long enough to clear the clock and settings, that setting would also revert back to the default 41.
