What it controls
The Heagstat H701 Non-Programmable Thermostat is a non-programmable. Its listing doesn't spell out which heating and cooling systems it supports, so run the maker's compatibility checker before you buy.
Check your wall for a C terminal: its maker says no C wire is needed ("No C-Wire Required Design: Dual power supply design runs on 24VAC hardwired power or 2 AA"). The C wire guide covers adapters.
The listing doesn't state heat pump support; if you have an O/B wire, confirm with the maker before ordering. Heat pump wiring.
Stages, per the maker: single-stage. A second-stage wire (W2 or Y2) at your old thermostat needs matching support here. Single- and two-stage systems.
Schedule: Non-Programmable. Program sleep and away setbacks once and it runs them every week.
Power, per the listing: Battery Powered. Battery models often fit old two-wire circuits with no C wire.
Not sure of your wiring? The wiring checker reads your system from the terminal letters and checks it against this model's statements.
Also on the listing: dimensions of 0.98 in (D) x 4.72 in (W) x 3.86 in (H), a weight of 6.4 ounces and a lcd.
