Uponor Climate Co˘ntrol™ Network System Thermostat Installation and Operation Guide 5
The Uponor Climate C˘ontrol™ Net-
work System Thermostat is
designed specically to function
within the network control system.
The thermostat is available in two
models — vertical and horizontal —
and displays air, slab, humidity and
outdoor temperatures. The thermostat
controls two stages of heat, two
stages of cooling and supplemental
heat all via a single pair of thermostat
wires (18-22 AWG).
The user can change the display,
modes, temperature setpoint, humid-
ity setpoint, fan and heat recovery
ventilator (HRV) from any thermostat
in the control system. The thermostat
also offers an optional feature called
master passing. This is an optional
feature that changes HVAC control
of a room to the current thermostat
being manually adjusted.
This manual provides standard
installation and operation procedures
for the thermostat. A list of terms
commonly used in this manual is
provided below.
Getting Ready
Check the contents of the thermostat
package (see Table 1-1). If any of
the contents are missing or damaged,
contact your Uponor sales representative
or distributor for assistance.

Uponor Climate Co˘ntrol™ Network System Thermostat Installation and Operation Guide 7
Mounting the
Thermostat
Install the thermostat on an
interior wall of the desired zone,
approximately 5 feet (1.5 meters)
above the oor. Do not mount the
thermostat in a location that may
be affected by heat sources or cold
drafts. If necessary, install a draft
barrier behind the control to prevent
air from blowing through the wiring
hole and affecting the control’s
built-in sensor.
Avoid mounting the thermostat
in the following locations:
• Near or around windows
• On outside walls
• Near replaces
• In the corner of a room
• Behind doors
• Near dimming switches
• On interior walls susceptible
to solar gains
• Near stoves, lamps, televisions,
computer monitors, etc.
• In damp or humid areas
Surface Mount
The following steps outline how to
mount the surface-mount thermostat.
1. Locate an area to mount the
thermostat.
2. Place case back on the wall and
mark areas for the screw and
connector holes with a pencil.
Figure 2-1: Case back of
thermostat being mounted
on wall
3. Insert drywall anchors into the
wall at the marked locations
and cut out a hole in the wall to
receive the main connector.
Figure 2-2: Inserting
drywall anchors
4. Using appropriate screws (not
included), attach the case back
to the drywall anchors.
Figure 2-3: Case back of
thermostat procedure
5. Wire the thermostat. Refer to
Section 2: Wiring the Thermostat
and Section 4: Wiring Diagram.
Figure 2-4: Wiring
thermostat procedure
6. Use the supplied #4 screws to
mount the thermostat into the
case back.
Figure 2-5: Mount
thermostat procedure
7. Snap the case front into place
on the case back.

Flush Mount
The following steps outline how to
mount the ush-mount thermostat.
Note: The ush-mount thermostat
is designed for mounting in ½-
inch drywall.
1. Loosely attach the wings into
the back of the thermostat with
the supplied hardware as shown
in Figure 2-7. (Only tighten
the screws one or two turns
into the wings.)
Figure 2-7: Flush
mount thermostat
2. Use the template provided to
mark the cutout in the drywall
for the thermostat. Use a level
to ensure the cutout is straight.
3. Cut around your marking with
a drywall saw or utility knife.
Figure 2-8: Flush
mount thermostat
4. Wire the thermostat. Refer to
Section 2: Wiring the Thermostat
and Section 4: Wiring Diagram.
Figure 2-9: Flush
mount thermostat
5. Push in any insulation and cut
away any excess drywall or paper
to ensure nothing interferes with
the action on the wings. The
thermostat will not mount correctly
if there is any interference.
6. Place the thermostat in the hole
in the drywall and hold it tight
against the wall.
Figure 2-10: Flush
mount thermostat
7. Turn the wing screws slowly.
Initially, the wings will turn 90
degrees behind the drywall. As
you continue tightening, they will
secure the thermostat in place.
Important: Do not overly
tighten the wings.
Figure 2-11: Flush
mount thermostat
Figure 2-12: Flush

8. Snap the ush-mount thermostat
skin into place on the thermostat.

Wiring the
Thermostat
The following steps outline how
to wire the thermostat.
Note: All wiring must comply
with local electrical codes
and specications. Uponor
recommends 18 AWG LVT or
similar wire for all thermostat
connections. Strip all wires to
¼” (6.3 mm) to ensure proper
connection to thermostat
terminal blocks. If an optional
sensor is used (e.g., a slab
sensor), run a single-pair,
18 AWG wire from the sensor
to the control.
Tools Required
• Small, at-head screwdriver
• Phillips screwdriver
• Wire cutter and stripper
Caution: To prevent
damage to the thermostat,
do not connect it to 24-volt
control systems or devices
other than the Digital Zone
Control Module (DZCM).
Power and Data Wiring
1. Refer to the DZCM Installation
Guide for wiring to the DZCM.
2. Run a single-pair, 18 AWG LVT
wire from the DZCM to the
thermostat.
3. Attach the wires to the Pwr/
Comm terminals shown in
Figure 2-14.
Note: Be sure to observe the
thermostat’s polarity and wire
color. Use the red wire to
connect the positive terminal on
the thermostat to the positive
terminal on the controller.
Placing the
Slab Sensor
The following steps outline how to
install a slab sensor.
1. Place the slab sensor between
two PEX tubes in the oor.
2. If the oor is wood construction,
place the sensor as close to
the oor surface as possible.
If the oor is concrete or like
construction, place the sensor
no deeper than the mid-point
of the slab.
3. Uponor recommends placing
the sensor wire in a conduit
for easy replacement. Ensure
the sensor is in direct contact
with the oor material (wood,
concrete, gypcrete, etc.).
Wiring the Slab Sensor
Connect the two wires from the
sensor to the slab sensor terminals
on the thermostat as shown in
Figure 2-15. In this case, polarity
does not matter.
