Description
The ecobee EB‑PEK2‑01 Power Extender Kit is a compact C‑wire adapter designed to make ecobee smart thermostats compatible with homes that lack a dedicated common wire. It works exclusively with 24‑VAC HVAC systems and installs at the furnace control board, using magnetic mounting for a fast, tool‑free setup. By creating a stable power path for the thermostat, it ensures reliable performance without needing to run new wiring. The kit is included with most ecobee thermostats and provides a simple, cost‑effective way to upgrade older heating and cooling systems to support modern smart‑thermostat features.
