T874H,Q,W Multistage Thermostats and
Q674B,C,G,L Subbases
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
When an LED lights, refer to this list for the meaning:
APPLICATION
FILTER: clogged filter needs replacement.
EM. HT.: emergency heat is operating. The compressor
has failed, and the heat pump is not operating. The
LED lights when the homeowner places the system
switch in the EM. HT. position.
The T874H,Q,W Multistage Thermostats provide 24 to 30
Vac control for heating and cooling systems as listed in
Table 1.
AUX. HT.: auxiliary heat is operating because the
weather is so cold that the heat pump alone cannot
handle the load.
SERVICE or CHECK: system needs to be checked.
See heating system instructions for specific
meaning.

³
Read these instructions carefully. Failure to follow
them could damage the product or cause a hazard-
ous condition.
There are about 2°F (1°C) between the stages so that the
second stage makes only when the first stage can not
handle the load. About one degree later, the third stage
makes (T874W only). This degree difference is called the
interstage differential.
·
Check the ratings given in the instructions and on
the product to make sure the product is suitable for
your application.

¿
Installer must be a trained, experienced service
technician.
After installation is complete, check out product
operation as provided in these instructions.
Select models include LEDs (light-emitting diodes). The
LED lights to indicate a problem with the system; refer to
the system manufacturer instructions.

Honeywell T874H Multistage Thermostat Instruction Manual Overview
Summary of Contents
- Page 1: T874H,Q,W multistage thermostats provide 24 to 30 Vac control for heating and cooling systems. When an LED lights, refer to this list for the meaning. Emergency heat is operating when the compressor has failed, and the heat pump is not operating. Auxiliary heat is operating because the weather is so cold that the heat pump alone cannot handle the load. The Q674B,C,G,L subbases provide wiring terminals, system and fan switching, and mounting bases for T874 multistage thermostats. This control contains mercury in a sealed tube; do not place it in the trash at the end of its useful life. On a two-stage or three-stage heat thermostat, the stages of heat make sequentially as the temperature drops. Read these instructions carefully; failure to follow them could damage the product or cause a hazardous condition. Check the ratings given in the instructions and on the product to ensure suitability for your application. Installer must be a trained, experienced service technician.
- Page 2: T874H,Q,W multistage thermostats and Q674B,C,G,L subbases Caution: Disconnect the power supply to prevent electrical shock or equipment damage. Run the wires as close as possible to the subbase to prevent interference with the thermostat linkage. Do not tighten the thermostat captive mounting screws to the point of damaging the subbase threads. Never install more than one wire per terminal unless a factory-supplied jumper with a spade terminal is used. These thermostats are calibrated at the factory using subbases mounted at true level. Install the thermostat about 5 ft (1.5m) above the floor in an area with good air circulation. Do not install the thermostat where it can be affected by drafts, dead spots, hot or cold air from ducts, radiant heat, concealed pipes, or unheated areas. Mount the subbase on a wall or horizontal outlet box. All wiring must comply with local electrical codes and ordinances. An incorrectly leveled subbase causes the temperature control to deviate from the setpoint.

(11 mm) The T874W is used with the C815A Thermistor mounted in the outdoor section. Locate it in an area where it can measure the true outdoor ambient temperature. Avoid mounting the C815A in an area where it is exposed to high temperatures or direct sunlight. Refer to heat pump equipment instructions for proper mounting. Provide disconnect means and overload protection as required. Service LED on select models. Power supply.

Connect changeover relay to 'O' terminal for changeover in cooling or to 'B' terminal for changeover in heating. Fig. 8.

- Page 6: T874H,Q,W multistage thermostats and Q674B,C,G,L subbases System components Mounting the thermostat Remove the thermostat cover by pulling the bottom edge of the cover upward until it snaps free of the cover clip. Note the tabs along the top inside edge of the thermostat base. The tabs fit into the subbase notches. Mount the thermostat base on the subbase and tighten the captive mounting screws. Place the upper edge of the thermostat cover on the thermostat base and swing the cover downward until it engages with the cover clip on the base. Carefully remove and discard the polystyrene packing insert that protects the mercury switches during shipment. Make sure the spring fingers are not bent flat, preventing proper electrical contact with the subbase.
- Page 7: T874H,Q,W multistage thermostats and Q674B,C,G,L subbases Setting the heat anticipator (T874Q only) involves matching each heat anticipator to its primary control current draw. The proper thermistor operation must be verified to assure correct thermostat operation. The minimum differential between the heating and cooling setpoints is 3°F (1.7°C). System switching positions control thermostat operation: OFF, AUTO, HEAT, EM. HT. Heating checkout requires moving the system switch to HEAT or AUTO and adjusting the heating lever. Fan switching positions control fan operation: ON and AUTO. Cooling checkout involves moving the system switch to COOL or AUTO and adjusting the cooling lever. The T874W must use a C815 thermistor for proper operation. The EM. HT. LED indicates when the emergency heat mode is active. Adjustments must be made carefully to ensure proper circuit operation.
- Page 8: T874H,Q,W multistage thermostats and Q674B,C,G,L subbases Fan operation can be set to ON for continuous running or AUTO for system control. Thermostats are accurately calibrated at the factory and do not allow for field calibration. To calibrate the thermometer, remove the thermostat cover and compare readings after stabilization. If readings differ, use a small screwdriver to adjust the thermometer shaft until they match. Replace the cover and put the system into operation after calibration.
