    Face Plate
    Good morning,

    I have enclosed a picture of out air conditioning thermostat. As you can see it was put on rather sloppily. We have attempted to contact Honeywell to see if they can suggest a face plate or anything else we can use to fix this problem. So far they have not returned any of our e-mails. W have two units like this, one in the living room and one in the bedroom of our condominium. Do you have any suggestions as to what we can do to alleviate this ugly problem?
    Thank you

    I doubt it,, but with a little imagination you might could find a neat piece of hard plastic to put behind the problem, maybe take it loose and put something decorative behind it after smoothing out the ruff edges with a putty knofe and fine sand paper
