The thermostat in my home is terribly misplaced and needs to be relocated to a different room. The problem is that I have no time to do this task myself at the moment and after paying someone to move it, patch drywall, etc I'm looking at a sizable amount of money. There is no way to move the thermostat without putting holes in the walls and ceiling in this particular case.
So I would like to replace my existing thermostat with one which supports an external wireless temperature sensor. That way I can place the wireless sensor in the appropriate room without having to tear up the walls and ceiling.
I have not found one like this, has anyone else? I had heard Honeywell makes one but I haven't tracked it down. I have seen wired remote sensors, but that will not work for me, the sensor must communicate with the thermostat wirelessly and the thermostat must be able to use the remote temperature when comparing to setpoints (as opposed to just displaying it on the thermostat but not using it).
And of course if the main thermostat unit had a documented RS232 port that would be perfect.
Thanks,
John
