OVERVIEW
Founten’s Thermostat Control Module provides you with the ability to connect one of Founten’s Remote Thermostats (FS-TRW-32AC or FS-TRW-32DC) to a HVAC unit using a wireless connection. The TCM is the controller that gets installed at the HVAC unit*. By using your Founten Site Manager (Web App) you will connect the TCM to a Remote Thermostat, finalizing the wireless communication. Now you will be able to control your HVAC unit from a wireless thermostat, as if it was wired directly into the HVAC unit. We call this the complete wireless option because it provided you with a simple and innovative way to get a thermostat onto the wall without having to run any wires.
Initial TCM and Remote Thermostat configuration and ongoing schedule management is accomplished using Founten’s free Web App. The Web App provides intuitive programming without the need to learn complicated menus. In addition, historical temperature and HVAC usage can be saved and reviewed. By providing a graphical representation of the thermostat’s operations, it gives you a powerful way to review and analyze your energy usage. With input of your power rates entered, you will always know the current operational cost of running your HVAC system. Founten’s solution enables you to adjust your schedule settings to reduce energy consumption and lower your energy costs. Our TCM w/ Remote Thermostat option also has the brainpower to continuously monitor the health of your HVAC systems. This advanced feature sends an immediate alert to authorized personnel via email or text message at the first sign of a problem.
