Step 1.1: Download the free Greenlite Thermostat App to your
mobile device and create an account.
Step 1.2: Set your phone aside and turn off the power at
the circuit breaker to both your heating and cooling systems
before performing any wiring.
Step 1.3: Confirm that your heating and cooling
system is powered down by changing the
temperature on your thermostat.
Hint: Your system should not make any noise and
you should not feel any air exiting your vents.
Step 1.4: Remove the front of your old thermostat from its
base. If you see thick black wires, wire nuts,
or any labels that say 120-240VAC or High
Voltage, your system is not compatible
with Greenlite AirzTM. Please call Greenlite
Technical Support at 267.417.3277 before
proceeding with your installation. If you do
not see any high voltage labels or wires,
please continue with your installation.
