T841A
Heating-Cooling Thermostats
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
APPLICATION
The T841A Thermostats provide 24 Vac control of two-
stage heating and one-stage cooling in heat p mp
systems sing man al changeover.
The T841A provides EM.HT.-HEAT-OFF-COOL system
switching and AUTO-ON fan switching.
Test holes are provided on the front of the thermostat to
accommodate test meter leads witho t removing the
thermostat from the wall. Remove the cover of the
thermostat to expose test holes that are labeled to
correspond with the terminals on the back of the thermostat.

OPERATION
The stages of heat make seq entially as the temperat re
drops. Make refers to the merc ry switch initiating a call for
heat or cool.
There is abo t 1 °F (0.6°C) between stages so the second
stage (a xiliary heat) makes only when the first stage
cannot handle the load. This 1°F is the interstage
differential.
The light emitting diode (LED) indicators on certain
thermostat models light when something specific happens
within the system. The AUX. HT. LED lights when a xiliary
heat (second stage heat) is operating d e to extremely
cold weather that req ires additional heat to s pplement
the heat p mp. When the red EM. HT. LED lights, the
emergency heat is operating ( s ally electric strip
heaters), beca se the homeowner has physically switched
to the EM. HT. position. When the red CHECK LED lights,
it indicates that something needs to be done to maintain
efficient system operation. See heating/cooling
man fact rer's instr ctions for specific meaning. When the
yellow COMP. FAULT LED lights, a compressor problem
req ires attention. When the yellow SERVICE LED lights,
see heating/cooling man fact rer's instr ctions for specific
meaning.

® RECYCLING NOTICE
This control contains merc ry in a sealed t be. Do
ntplace control in the trash at the end of its sef l
life.
If this control is replacing a control that contains
merc ry in a sealed t be, do ntplace yo r old
control in the trash.
Contact yo r local waste management a thority for
instr ctions regarding recycling and the proper
disposal of this control, or any control containing
merc ry in a sealed t be.
INSTALLATION
When Installing this Prod ct...
1. Read these instr ctions caref lly. Fail re to follow
them co ld damage the prod ct or ca se a
hazardo s condition.
2. Check the ratings given in the instr ctions and on
the prod ct to make s re the prod ct is s itable for
yo r application.
3. Installer m st be a trained, experienced service
technician.
4. After installation is complete, check o t prod ct
operation as provided in these instr ctions.
A CAUTION
1. Disconnect power s pply before beginning
installation to prevent electrical shock or
eq ipment damage.
2. Do not short across coil terminals on relay.
This can b rn o t the thermostat heat
anticipator.
Location
Locate the thermostat abo t 5 ft (1.5m) above the floor in
an area with good circ lation at average temperat re.
Do not mo nt thermostat where it may be affected by:
— drafts, or dead spots behind doors and in corners.
— hot or cold air from d cts.
— radiant heat from s n or appliances.
— concealed pipes and chimneys.
— nheated ( ncooled) areas behind the thermostat, s ch
as an o tside wall.
This thermostat is a precision instr ment and was caref lly
adj sted at the factory. Handle it carefully.
Mo nting and Wiring
The T841 can be mo nted directly on a wall or a horizontal
o tlet box. Choose the method that best fits yo r
installation.
1. In replacement applications, check the existing
thermostat wiring for cracked or frayed ins lation.
Replace any wiring in poor condition. All wiring m st
comply with local codes and ordinances.
2. Grasp the thermostat cover at the top and bottom
with one hand. P ll o tward on the bottom edge of
the cover ntil it snaps free of the thermostat base.
Caref lly remove and save the packing material
s rro nding the merc ry switches.
3. R n wiring (if necessary) to the location. If the wiring
is plastered into the wall, make a hole next to the
cable and loosen the wires so they can be p shed
back into the wall later. Thread wires thro gh the
hole in the packing material saved in step 2.
Connect the wires to the terminals on the back of the
thermostat. See Fig. 2 thro gh 17.
4. Where applicable, set the second stage adj stable
heat anticipator to match the c rrent draw of the
primary heating control (see Heat Anticipator Setting
section).
5. P sh the excess wire back thro gh the hole and
pl g any opening with packing material to prevent
drafts that may affect thermostat performance.

6. Loosely sec re the therm ostat to the w all or o tlet
box w ith screw s thro gh the tw o m o nting holes in
the m iddle of the device. The sheetm etal screws
incl ded w ith the therm ostat are designed for se in
a plaster wall and anchors are not needed.
7. Level the therm ostat exactly sing a spirit level or
pl m b line. Tighten the two m o nting screw s at the
m iddle of the device.
8. Install two screw s in the top m o nting holes and
tighten.
IMPORTANT
An incorrectly leveled su ase will cause the
temperature control to deviate from setpoint. It is
not a cali ration pro lem.
9. R eplace the therm ostat cover.
