Remove the old thermostat
- Turn off power to the heating/cooling system at the main fuse/circuit breaker panel.
- Remove the cover of your old thermostat. You may need to unscrew the cover if it is locked on.
- Locate the heat anticipator adjustment scale and lever on the old thermostat (Fig. 1). In the box below, record the number that the adjustment lever points to. This is the current (amp) rating of your heating system. Current setting: If you cannot find the heat anticipator setting on the old thermostat, you can use a standard setting for your type of system when you reach Step 8 of this installation.
- Unscrew and remove the old thermostat wallplate from the wall, but do not disconnect the wires.
- Label the wires using the wiring labels that came with the CT87. Identify each wire using the letter of the terminal on the old thermostat (Fig. 2). Do not label the wires by color.
- Disconnect the wires from the old thermostat and wrap them around a pencil to keep them from falling back into the wall (Fig. 3).
