A hydronic floor heating system as it relates to an HVAC apparatus, approach and system. Aspects of the present system and approach may include a radiant floor optimization mode, low floor temperature in vacation mode, modifying a 300 Hz, or so, reading principle base on implementation of Pseudo-random jittering of a reading event improving short-term accuracy of the individual readings, and a combination of hardware and software filters for using thermal sensors with extended cable length.

Hydronic floor heating systems with features

A Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) controller may include a housing, a display, a printed wiring board, a flextail, and a temperature sensor. The housing may be configured to house the display, the printed wiring board, the flextail, and the temperature sensor. The flextail may extend from, for example, the display or other component of the HVAC controller, along the interior surface of the housing, and connect to a connector on the printed wiring board. The temperature sensor may be mounted on the flextail, and connected to the printed circuit board via the flex tail or other connection. In some cases, the temperature sensor may be positioned on the flextail such that when the flextail is connected to the printed wiring board, the temperature sensor is positioned adjacent a lower part of the housing, where less internal heat generated by the internal electrical components of the HVAC controller will reside.

An HVAC controller for controlling an HVAC system may be configured to enroll one or more wireless devices, and once one or more wireless devices are enrolled, to prompt the user to enter an identifier, a location, a device type and/or a function for one or more of the enrolled wireless devices. The HVAC controller may use the identifier, location and/or device type to identify each of the enrolled devices. This may facilitate a user in selecting various sensors to participate in sensor averaging, identifying where certain sensor data is originating, identifying devices having a low battery condition, as well as performing other tasks as desired.

Method and system for configuring wireless sensors in an HVAC system

A wall mountable connector configured to facilitate a user in removing a first thermostat from the wall mountable connector and installing a new, different second thermostat on the wall mountable connector without having to do any wiring work. The field wires remain coupled to the wall mountable connector, and the wall mountable connector provides the appropriate electrical connections between the field wires and the first and second thermostats. In some cases, the wall mountable connector may include a memory for storing data communicated by a first thermostat, and to communicate the stored data to a subsequently installed second thermostat. In some instances, the first and second thermostats may be selected from a line of compatible thermostats.

An electronic sub-assembly for an HVAC Controller includes a touch screen display and a printed circuit board. The touch screen display including a viewing side and a non-viewing side. A conductive trace is disposed on the viewing side of the touch screen display adjacent a perimeter of the touch screen display. The printed circuit board, which includes a grounding feature, is positioned adjacent the non-viewing side of the touch screen display. A connector is in electrical communication with the conductive trace and the grounding feature of the printed circuit board.

ESD protection mechanism for an HVAC controller

An HVAC Controller may include a first sub-assembly and a second sub-assembly releasably engageble with the first sub-assembly. The first sub-assembly may include a first housing and a printed circuit board capable of being secured relative to the first housing and capable of providing one or more signals. The second sub-assembly may include a second housing and a second printed circuit board capable of being secured relative to the second housing and capable of receiving the one or more signals from the first printed circuit boards when the first sub-assembly is releasably engaging the second sub-assembly. The first printed circuit board and the second printed circuit board each may have one or more component mounted on sides facing one another, the components each extending a distance. The sum of the distances may be greater than a distance spacing the facing sides of the printed circuit boards.
