A system, method and apparatus for automatically associating a thermostat to a location where the thermostat is installed. The thermostat mounts to a subbase installed on a wall, the subbase comprising an information storage device for storing location information where the subbase has been installed. When the thermostat is connected to the subbase and powered on, the thermostat transmits an identification of the thermostat and the location information to a central thermostat controller so that the central thermostat controller can identify a location where a particular thermostat is located for purposes of configuring the thermostat in accordance with the location.
