Leviton DZ6HD-1BZ – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Does the Leviton DZ6HD-1BZ dimmer need a hub to work?
It's a Z-Wave Plus certified device, so it talks to a Z-Wave hub or controller rather than directly to Wi-Fi. Voice control through Amazon Alexa works once it's joined to a hub; the Alexa device and the hub are separate purchases.
2) How many watts of LED can the Leviton DZ6HD-1BZ handle?
300W of dimmable LED or CFL load, and 600W of incandescent or fluorescent. LED fixtures pull far less than their light output suggests, but on a big retrofit count the actual wattage of every fixture on the circuit against the 300W ceiling before you commit.
3) Can the Leviton DZ6HD Decora Smart dimmer be used in a 3-way or 4-way setup?
Multi-location control is done with remote units, not standard 3-way switches. Up to 4 DD00R-DL remotes can be added to one DZ6HD. If you're replacing a pair of mechanical 3-ways, plan on the DZ6HD at the load end plus a DD00R-DL remote at each other location.
4) What can I use instead of the Leviton DZ6HD-1BZ dimmer where no smart control or hub is wanted?
The Leviton DZ6HD-1BZ is a Z-Wave Plus certified Decora Smart dimmer that needs hot, neutral, load and ground at the box and works with Amazon Alexa through a hub. For an opening where the owner just wants manual dimming with no network, the Pass & Seymour R Series R600-PWV is a rotary preset dimmer rated 660W in white. It is turned by hand at the wall, so there is no hub, app or voice control involved.
5) Which dimmer handles LED and CFL loads if I do not need the Leviton DZ6HD-1BZ smart features?
The Leviton DZ6HD-1BZ carries 300W of dimmable LED or CFL and 600W incandescent or fluorescent, with Z-Wave Plus control. A non-smart alternative for LED and CFL work is the Pass & Seymour TSDCL303PBK toggle slide dimmer, rated 300W for CFL/LED and wired single pole or 3-way. Both land at 300W on LED/CFL; the Leviton adds the Z-Wave radio and the higher incandescent capacity.
6) For a three-way stairwell, is the Leviton DZ6HD-1BZ or the Pass & Seymour TSDCL303PBK the right dimmer?
They reach multi-location two different ways. The Leviton DZ6HD-1BZ uses up to four DD00R-DL remote units for multi-location, with a traveler optional for multi-switch applications. The Pass & Seymour TSDCL303PBK is specified single pole/3-way, so it pairs with a standard companion switch over existing traveler wiring. If the stairwell already has 3-way travelers and no neutral at both boxes, the wiring favors the Pass & Seymour approach.
7) What color does the Leviton DZ6HD-1BZ come in, and can I match existing devices?
White and light almond faces are both in the box, so you can match either of the two most common commercial device colors without a second order. For black, gray, brown or ivory, Leviton sells DDKIT color change kits separately.
8) I just need a dimmer, not a smart one. What else is there besides the Leviton DZ6HD?
If there's no automation system and no neutral-fed box, a conventional dimmer is the simpler call. Pass & Seymour's R Series rotary preset dimmer (R600-PWV) is a 660W white rotary unit, and the Pass & Seymour TSDCL303P is a spec grade toggle slide rated 300W for CFL and LED in single pole or 3-way. The TSDCL303P is the one that drops into an existing 3-way pair without adding remotes.
9) Is the Pass & Seymour R600-PWV a drop-in replacement for a Leviton DZ6HD-1BZ?
No. The R600-PWV is a rotary preset dimmer at 660W in white, operated by a knob, while the DZ6HD-1BZ is a Decora-style smart dimmer with Z-Wave Plus and ships with white and light almond faces plus DDKIT color change kits in black, gray, brown and ivory. Swapping to the rotary gives up all scheduling, remote and Alexa control, and the wallplate opening differs from a Decora device.
10) Will the Leviton Decora Smart DZ6HD fit a standard single-gang box with a Decora plate?
It's a Decora-style dimmer, so it takes a standard Decora (rectangular opening) wallplate and mounts in a normal single-gang device box. Wallplate isn't included with the dimmer.
11) Is the Leviton DZ6HD-1BZ the right part number to order for a Z-Wave Plus Decora dimmer?
Yes, DZ6HD-1BZ is the Leviton manufacturer part number for the 600W Decora Smart dimmer with Z-Wave Plus. Order the DD00R-DL remotes separately if the opening is controlled from more than one location.
