Honeywell T498B1512/U – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Honeywell T498B1512 work on a 240V electric baseboard heater?
Yes. The T498B1512 is a line voltage thermostat rated for 120, 208, 240 and 277 Vac at 60 Hz, and it's built for electric baseboards, convectors and fan forced heaters on resistive rated loads. Switching is DPST, so both legs of the 240V circuit open when it shuts off.
2) What box does the Honeywell T498B line voltage thermostat mount to?
It mounts on a standard 2 x 4 in. outlet box or a 4 x 4 in. junction box, and it mounts vertically. Body size is 4 9/16 in. high x 2 7/8 in. wide x 1 15/16 in. deep (116 x 73 x 33 mm), so allow for that projection off the wall.
3) Can I stop tenants from cranking the heat up on this Honeywell thermostat?
Yes, and that's a real reason property managers spec this one. It ships with adjustable range stops and a locking cover, so you can cap the top and bottom of the dial and then lock the cover over it. There's also a positive OFF position and an extra knob decal for recalibration. Dial range is 40 F to 80 F before you set the stops.
4) Can I connect this Honeywell baseboard thermostat to aluminum branch wiring?
It comes with 6 in. (150 mm) color-coded copper leadwires, suitable for connecting to aluminum wiring if an approved CO/ALR connector is used. Don't twist the copper pigtails directly onto aluminum conductors without that listed connector.
5) Is this thermostat UL listed for commercial and multi-family use?
The T498B1512 carries UL listing under File No. E4436, Guide No. XAPX, and CSA listing under File No. LR1322. Those cover it for Canada as well as the US, which matters if you're standardizing one line voltage stat across a portfolio on both sides of the border.
6) How tight does this bimetal baseboard thermostat hold room temperature?
Accuracy is 1 F (2 C) with a 3 F (2 C) differential, using a bimetal sensing element and a Micro Switch mechanism that makes on temperature fall. That's typical mechanical line voltage behavior, so expect a few degrees of swing between cut-in and cut-out rather than the tight control of an electronic stat.
7) Will the T498B1512 work in an unheated or seasonal space?
Ambient operating range is 40 F to 85 F (5 C to 30 C), so it's meant for occupied interior space. A garage, warehouse bay or vestibule that drops below 40 F sits outside that window. It's a single stage heat only control, not a heat/cool stat.
8) What color is the Honeywell T498B1512 and does it come with a thermometer?
Brushed gold finish, and yes, a thermometer is built into the face so the occupant can read actual room temperature against the setpoint. The mounting base is rugged plastic.
9) Can I add a remote or outdoor sensor to this Honeywell line voltage thermostat?
An optional outdoor sensor is available for the T498B1512. Companion accessories called out for it are 272804A/U and 272823/U, which are ordered separately from the thermostat.
