SunTouch SunStat CommandPLUS WiFi Programmable Touchscreen Thermostat | 500950
The SunStat® CommandPlus™ Wi-Fi Programmable Touchscreen Thermostat - All New in Aug 2023
This beautiful all-in-one thermostat is the latest innovation from SunTouch to control all 120 or 240 VAC floor heating systems, via its glass touch screen or Watts Home app (No Voice control like the ConnectPlus)
The CommandPlus brings you the latest designer look, new features, and Wi-Fi control at the Same price as the Command, which is the best-selling SunTouch thermostat in history.
Floor sensor wire included, 15 Ft long.
And, the CommandPlus is not just another pretty face - it's smart, safe, and easy to use. The Guided setup lets you easily activate a schedule for floor heating comfort to suit your lifestyle via the Watts Home mobile app or Voice commands.
Energy-saving features such as warm weather shutdown and temperature compensation are standard, and
The CommandPlus controls a single zone of electric floor heat and includes a built-in GFCI for safety. Achieve the best results by setting it to control the floor temperature using the included 15 Ft sensor wire and, optionally limit the floor temperature or configure it to control the space through air temperature alone. The most options for control in the industry.
• Easy to use scheduling - comprehensive menus & help screens plus the app
• Control up to 1800 Watts of Floor Heat @ 120v - And 3600 Watts @ 240v (Thats 150 or 300 SF @ 12/Watts/SF)
• Designer Black Front Display - high-resolution large touchscreen shows Floor temp, or Optional Weather and Clock displays; the thermostat is white on the sides to blend with most walls. It is only available in this color.
• Thin profile on the wall - Big enough for easy use, but unobtrusive
• Guided Setup - Makes installation simple
• Energy Use Monitoring - shows total hours of operation - see how little energy floor heat uses.
• Outdoor Temperature & Weather display options
• Floor or air-sensing temperature control
• The most safety options - GFCI Built-in, Overcurrent, Voltage-level sensing and Remote software updates
• Use Wired SunStat Relays to control additional areas - Wired connection to SunStat 500980 R4 Relay(s) - The PLUS is also backward-compatible with Older Relay 3 models (500880 wired only), so there is no need to replace older R3 relays if you want to change an existing thermostat Gen3 model (500825,500850, or 500875)
• Home Automation Tie-In via dry contact (allows thermostat to be turned on/off by a home automation system)
• 3 year manufacturer warranty
The following features are NOT available in the CommandPlus - upgrade to the ConnectPlus if you want these features:
• Voice Control with Alexa or Google - Install the Watts Home app and configure voice operation easily
• Landscape mount option - Easily replace older thermostat models or go for a European look
• Use with a ConnectPlus Smart Sensor via Wireless connection to measure floor temperature and detect water leakage
• WIreless connection to R4 relays

Instructions + Video
Indoor mount only
Pull power supply wiring to the control location.
-
Leave about 6 to 8" (15 to 20 cm) of wire for connections.
-
This wiring should be size 12 or 14 AWG, in compliance with local code requirements.
-
A qualified person should run a dedicated circuit (ideal) from the main circuit breaker panel to the control location. If a dedicated circuit is not possible, it is acceptable to tap into an existing circuit. However, there must be enough capacity to handle the load (amps) of the floor heating system being installed, and any appliance likely to be used on the circuit such as a hairdryer or vacuum cleaner.
-
Always avoid circuits that have ballasted lighting, motors, exhaust fans, or hot tub pumps to reduce the likelihood of interference.
-
The circuit breaker should be rated 20 amps for total circuit loads up to 15 amps. A 15-amp circuit breaker may be used for total circuit loads up to 12 amps.
-
A GFCI (ground-fault circuit interrupter) or AFCI (arc-fault circuit interrupter) type circuit breaker may be used, but is not necessary.

Customer Reviews
This unit was a direct replacement, installed per instructions in about 20 minutes.
The only complaint I might have is that the display is very bright and displays the temperature in a huge font. I wish it had the same size font for date/time as well, it'd serve as a wall clock.
Otherwise, no complaints at all. Ask me again in 10 years, hopefully it'll last as long as the original.
Setup software was very good.
