We have a hybrid carrier heat pump with an aprilaire700 humidifier.

i want to i stall a new smartthermostat and replace the Edge.

i ran new 8 conductor thermostat wire.

The only requirement of the ecobee 5 is that it can run my 2-stage cool and 3-stage heat carrier 58cts system.

the first thing i have to do is disconnect the carrier ecm and connect the thermostat wire and humidifier to the furnace board.
ecobee has a map of the different wires, everything seems to be color coded.

then connect the wires at the new thermistat.

QUESTION: is it as easy as what i just described? Will the ecobee smart thermostat know it is a 2-stage cool, 3-stage heat system?
