I have a Janitrol 18-60 Thermostat that I was going to replace with a Hunter 44260 programmable. 1st Is it compatible and second the wiring diagrams

Janitrol
G R Y O then W2 E C
Hunter
Y RC RH Y/O W/B Y1

I can probably get it connect to about 80% right, but the O E and C are throwing me off. I know the E is for emergency heat and the C is the common wire but are they required to be hooked up.

First off the hunter does not have a C=common connection.
Second the hunter does not have a E=emergency connection

I think your thermostat might not be compatible. Read the Hunter instructions.

I think your thermostat might not be compatable. Read the Hunter instructions.

If you read my question more carefully the Janitrol has the C & E connection not the Hunter.

You said you have a Janitrol thermostat you are going to REPLACE with a HUNTER

I said


The hunter does not have a C or E connection

Now do you understand what I just said if not I will spell it out for you

The thermostat you are going to use to replace the Janitrol with the (HUNTER) might not be compatible. Now the reason for this is the Hunter is missing the E and C wiring terminal.

Now without the E terminal you can not use the strip heat in the electric furnace

If you will READ your manual you will see what I mean.

Here is your manual.

Now READ page 5

This thermostat is designed to work on the following heating and cooling systems:

Gas – Standing Pilot


Gas – Electronic Ignition


Gas – Fired Boilers


Gas – Milivolt Systems


Oil – Fired Boilers


Oil – Fired Furnace


Electric Furnace


Electric Air Conditioning

Single Stage Heat Pump - No auxiliary

Now it says single stage NO AUXILARY. Now that is the EMERGENCY HEAT CIRCUIT YOU NEED. The E circuit is MISSING just like I said in my first post back to you. The AUXILARY is the E circuit

I did read your question carefully and I did answer your question correctly.

YOU have a problem reading your manual. You had a problem reading my reply. You have a problem since YOU bought the incorrect thermostat.

Sorry but I hope this answers your question. Buy a compatible thermostat and get rid of the one you have since it will not work since it is missing the E terminal and you need the E terminal for the strip heat you have in your furnace. The C or common terminal would also be nice to have if you plan on using the furnace power supply (24 volts to power your thermostat) if not it will run on battery power all the time depending upon the NEW and Different thermostat you are going to have to buy to replace the one you have now that will not work.

The Hunter does not have a place to hook up the E or C terminal just in case you missed that in this post back to you.

I did not understand your answer. I did read the manual and I already knew that there was no C & E terminal on the Hunter. This is why I asked the question. The manual also said it was compatible with heat pump systems and the C should not be used, I was just asking about the E terminal and I already knew the E terminal was for the auxulary emergency heat.
