Wireless Installation of the EcoAir
1. Review the table below and determine where the EcoAir will be mounted.
Mounting
Consideration
Best
Practice
Temperature
The EcoAir should be mounted on a wall
away from heat or cold sources that could affect its
temperature reading. This includes outside-facing walls with poor insulation, walls with
pipes circulating hot water, and walls near radiators.
If a suitable location without a heat or cold source is not available, contact a Telkonet
Project Manager.
The EcoAir should be mounted on the wall, not set into the wall. This will ensure that the
backplate provides proper airflow.
Distance to
Occupant
If the occupants will likely be stationary…
(e.g. sleeping in bed)
Position the EcoAir within
2 to
12
feet of
their expected location.
If the occupants will move occasionally…
(e.g. working at desk)
Position the EcoAir within 15
feet of their
expected location.
If the occupants will move regularly…
(e.g. walking in hall)
Position the EcoAir within
20
feet of their
expected location.
2. Remove the security screw from the EcoAir.
3. Separate the backplate from the EcoAir.
4. Level the backplate using a level across the bottom of the backplate.
5. Mark the placement for the mounting screws.
6. Mount the backplate to the wall or HVAC unit using either the wall anchors (mounting to drywall) or
the self-tapping metal screws (mounting to metal).
7. Insert two AA batteries into the EcoAir.
8. Hook the EcoAir to the hinges on the right-hand side of the backplate.
9. Gently swing the EcoAir closed onto the backplate until it snaps into place.
10. Verify the screen on the EcoAir is lit and responds to button presses.
11. Reinsert and tighten the security screw on the EcoAir.
12. EcoAir installation is complete.
