Our original 1990’s Honeywell Thermostat is circling the drain. Looking to replace with a new smart thermostat. Here is what it looks like with the cover off. Doable for a mid DIY guy like me or not?

    What makes you think that thermostat is going to fail? It’s about as simple a device as you can imagine and doesn’t really have any parts that wear out.

    Do you really need a smart thermostat, or just something programmable? A programmable thermostat works for most people, unless you have schedules that vary wildly week to week you probably won’t see much if any benefit from a “smart” stat.
