Good day!

We have an Airxcel thermostat which controls the AC and Heat. I'm looking to replace it with a unit that has Wi-Fi option.
The Micro-Air Easy Touch Thermostat seems pricey. Is anyone aware of other options?

Thank you!

Unfortunately, the Micro-Air thermostats are about the only aftermarket units out there. You are correct that they are pricey, but they seem to be the only Wifi/BT game available.

IMO (especially for the money too), they are somewhat limited in that they cannot talk (or be paired) to another Micro-Air thermostat, or, be connected to remote sensors like a stick built smart thermostat. This would come in handy when using the ceiling race track A/C ducts which push air to other rooms/areas of the coach.

We have 2 that replaced our AirXcel thermostats used with our Coleman A/Cs. Overall, they do a good job but the remote (area) will be colder than where the running AC & thermostat are located. In other words, we find ourselves running both ACs to control the cool temps as close as possible - usually within 2-3 degrees. Running just one to cool both rooms at the same temp is near impossible, even more so with a 5er and with the upper room door closed.

Happy Trails
 
Thank you! I'll have take a closer look af MicroAir.
I have the MicroAir and really like it in my small one AC camper. It is pricey, but after three factory ones that quit or wouldn't control the heater, I have one.
 
Been using the Microair thermostat for 2 years and it works great. Slight issues but the manufacturer respo da via email well - no telephone support.
