[QUOTE="-Pjackso, post: 4188183, member: 8119"] I agree, the old mechanical thermostats are indeed simple and reliable. (Spring/bi-metal types) It's essentially an on/off switch. I'm not sure if it's compatible/ or the best choice for 2 stage compressors, heat pumps, and certainly not good for family programmed temp schedules. One of the best advantages of a programmable thermostats is that if you (or your kids) changes the temperature setting (for short term heat/cool) - the thermostat will resort back to 'normal' setting after next program. Programmable thermostats: "Dad crisis averted" ...Now, if it could keep the kids from leaving the door open trying to cool the outdoors - that would be incredible. [/QUOTE]
