FAQs

Which types of heating and cooling systems is the Bell Smart Home thermostat compatible with?

The Bell Smart Home thermostat is compatible with most types of central heating and cooling systems:

• Furnaces
• Boilers (steam and hot water radiators or radiant in-floor heating)
• Central air conditioners
• Heat pumps

It is not compatible with the following: 

• Ductless or mini-split systems
• Electric baseboard heaters

Does the Bell Smart Home thermostat support multistage systems? 

Yes. The Bell Smart Home thermostat is compatible with up to three stages of heating and two stages of cooling. For more information, please contact your heating and cooling specialist.

Does the Bell Smart Home thermostat support systems with multiple zones? 

Yes, the smart thermostat supports systems with more than one zone. Each zone can be controlled by its own thermostat.

Can the Bell Smart Home thermostat control variable-speed heating and cooling systems? 

The smart thermostat can control many variable-speed heating and cooling systems that use standard 24-volt wiring (for example, with R, G, Y, W, C wiring).

My system has an external air baffle for fresh air. Can the Bell Smart Home thermostat work with my system? 

The smart thermostat works with heating and cooling systems that have an external air baffle, where the central system controls the baffle.

Some systems rely on the thermostat itself (not the central heating and cooling system) to control the baffle. The smart thermostat will be able to support these systems using the Z terminal.

What can the Z terminal on the Bell Smart Home thermostat be used to control? 

The Z terminal of the smart thermostat can currently control a third heating stage, a humidifier or a dehumidifier. 

To connect a smart light bulb, light dimmer, smart plug or appliance module to your Bell Smart Home service, simply install the device and then add it to your Bell Smart Home system.
