VIVE TP-N-502MLV 2-Wire Non-Programmable Thermostat

Single-dial thermostat for baseboard heat

The VIVE TP-N-502MLV is a mechanical thermostat built for single-stage heat systems using two wires. It operates without batteries and uses a simple dial to set the temperature. This design suits electric baseboard heaters and similar line-voltage heating circuits. Installers and homeowners get direct control with no programming steps required.

Suits basic line-voltage heat control

This unit fits installations that need a straightforward, non-programmable thermostat for single-stage heating. It is not for multi-stage systems, heat-pump configurations, or setups that require wireless operation, scheduling features, or a common wire for power. Buyers who want remote access or automatic setback schedules should look at a different category of thermostat.

Two-wire line-voltage operation decides fit

The defining specification is the two-wire, line-voltage design for single-stage heat only. If the heating system uses this wiring method and does not need programming, the 502 model connects directly and works without batteries. Any system needing more wires, low-voltage signalling, or staged control cannot use this thermostat.
