HVAC Installation

Instructions for installing the Gateway, Thermostats and remote temp sensors.

🪛 Gateway Installation

Install Gateway in network room or manager’s office, according to predetermined placement and network port.
Validate gateway comes online and connects to cloud.
Take photos of the gateway placement and port connected.

Disconnect each existing thermostat and connect the SmartStat thermostat.
Commission each thermostat within the mobile app
- 📲 Include specific labeling like RTU-1 Front or something that matches customer naming conventions
Make sure Mechanical settings are set the same as the old stat.
Test each thermostat.
- 🌡️ Use temperature gun to verify heat working, cooling working at each
- 📸 Record measurements and take photos
- 📝 Label each thermostat with provided sticker
Note if remote sensors are in use

This part of the install typically requires a tall ladder or a manual/powered man lift

Locate ductworks, specifically which ducts are closest to the supply
- 🚨 If there are hard ceilings - go to alternate solutions
Run Cat5e (ethernet cable) at ceiling height along ductwork
- All Cat5e runs must homerun to either gateway or wireless sensor pod
Connect temperature lead to Cat5e
- 📝 Label temperature sensor with rooftop unit name using provided sticker
Insert into ductwork, ensuring metal lead does not touch the exterior of ductwork
- Ensure that sensor is all the way into the duct and tip is not in contact with the metal duct
Document each temperature sensor location with photos in the Installation app
- 📸 Close up photo should capture the label and wide angle should capture the location
Locate existing remote sensors, swap with provide 10K Ohm thermistors
- 📲 Verify connect of remote sensors at the thermostat and in mobile app
- 🌡️ Verify with heat gun that temperatures match what is record in app

Hard ceiling Option 1 - access rooftop units via rooftop
