Classic 80 Series Programmable Thermostat
The White Rodgers Classic 80 Series is a low-voltage programmable thermostat designed for residential HVAC systems. It supports two stages of heating and one stage of cooling with a 5-1-1 weekly program schedule. The unit features a backlit 1.8 sq in LCD display and offers system switching for heat, cool, off, and emergency modes.
Installers needing multi-stage heat
This thermostat suits technicians replacing older mechanical controls where two heat stages and single-stage cooling are required. The 5-1-1 programming allows separate weekday and weekend temperature profiles with four daily settings. Buyers who need WiFi connectivity, humidification control, or remote sensing capability should look at other models, as this unit lacks those features.
Two heat stages and one cool stage
The defining specification is the 2H/1C staging configuration, which determines compatibility with specific furnace and heat pump setups. The terminal designations include R, C, Y, W2, G, O/B, E, and L for conventional and heat pump wiring. Battery backup retains programs during power loss, while a filter indicator reminds users of maintenance needs.
