The Mermaid 5200 BTU AC\Heat thermostat got installed in the stateroom


 We first looked at the 10/2 wire I nicked cutting the hole but it was not even cut through the outer shielding so we just put a piece of electrical tape on it and stuffed it back in.

Then we snaked the thermostat RJ-45 cable to the stateroom aft hanging locker. That decide if the cable would be long enough and it was. That saved us a special order of one.



At first we tried staking down the cable but it pushed back at the thermostat and would not allow it to sit flat. We tried different methods but ended up removing the wire ties completely.


Now we spray foamed (Debbie got the spay foam from Home Depot) in the doard hose so it would not move and mess with the back of the thermostat.


It was time to simply remove the paper from the double sided tape and placed the thermostat in the hole.

All done!
