Termostato de sala opcional.

Sem mais contexto para aclarar o que é "room thermostat", é a melhor tradução a que cheguei.

PS. A pergunta original permite duas interpretações:

1. (Optional room) thermostat e
2. Optional (room thermostat).

Acho mais provável que a pergunta se refira à segunda. De qualquer maneira a resposta que dei sai pela tangente e mantém a ambiguidade.
