The PowerShift Smart Thermostat requires a 24 Volt AC (24 VAC) Common Wire (C/X Wire) to supply power. If your existing thermostat is not powered
by 24 VAC, you may have to connect the Common Wire at the HVAC unit. Follow the instructions below to determine if your home has the required 24
VAC Common Wire.
Determine if your current system is using
24VAC Common Wire
Remove the existing thermostat cover from the wall plate (refer to your
