quick note- loving my thermostat

March 4th, 2007 at 04:14 am

I installed that thermostat on Monday & I am LOVING it. I can set it for 5 days & 2 days (work week vs weekend). But what I really love is the hold feature where I can change the current temp, regardless of where the settings are automated. I can put a temporary hold on where it will go back to the auto temps at the next scheduled change, or a perminant hold that can only be turned off manually.

So tonight I'm heading to bed earlier than I normally do, so I set the temporary hold to what I keep it set at during the night. That way, when the morning hits, the heat will be up again through the automatic settings. But my heat will go lower earlier than normal since I'll be snuggled up in bed.

And tomorrow when I leave for work and will not be home for at least 8 or 9 hours, I'll put the perminanat hold on to 60 til I get home.

Obviously, I'm easily entertained... but I couldn't help sharing, because I think its neat Wink

    I've thought about one of those for a long time. Did you put in in yourself? Was it difficult?

    It is like a timer. Programmable for 4 different temps a day. I really like it. I put it in myself, with my dad there to help me. Basically, you just have to unconnect the wires from your current thermostat & reconnect them to your new one. The wires are color coded, so it shouldn't be too hard. We installed it in under 15 minutes. Very simple.
