π₯ Beckett 7520U A/C Ready Kit β Smart Thermostat Compatible
Upgrade your oil furnace or boiler with modern smart thermostat control. The Beckett 7520U A/C Ready Kit combines advanced burner control with Wi-Fi thermostat compatibility, giving homeowners and HVAC technicians a reliable, efficient, and smart heating solution.
π‘ Product Overview
The Beckett 7520U A/C Ready Kit is a complete upgrade solution for residential and light commercial oil-fired heating systems. It combines the GeniSys 7505 Primary Control with the A/C Ready Transformer Kit (51950U) to provide reliable, energy-efficient operation while supporting internet-connected thermostats.
With the included βCβ terminal, homeowners can power smart thermostats such as Nest, Ecobee, or Honeywell Wi-Fi units, enabling remote access, scheduling, and system monitoring via smartphone or tablet.
Key innovations include a redesigned DC relay circuit, preventing buzzing, chattering, and premature wear, ensuring long-term reliability. The kit mounts universally under most primary controls, allowing for quick and hassle-free installation.
The 7520U also adds air-conditioning capabilities to compatible furnaces and serves as a cost-effective replacement for older Honeywell R8184M Primary Controls. When used with BeckettLink Pro or the 52082 Contractor Tool, it allows programmable pre/post purge times, storing diagnostic history of the last 15 cycles for easier troubleshooting.
