Bill, I saw in a mag ad that Honeywell has come up with a new programmable remote t-stat. I tried your web-site, but after half an hour gave up. Could you please help me out on this?

I have installed a few, not cheap.

But it works exactly as billed no hitches.

Danfoss has a couple set ups too

T8775

This place is fast! Yes, the new T8775 is shipping now to a distributor near you, it is exactly the same size as the old T87, it has a digital display,with back lighting, is mercury free, +- 1 degree acccurate, not programmable. It also is operated by turning it just like the old ones. It's compatible with gas or oil fired equipment, hydronic, steam & scorched air. Some models are heat only, some heat & cooling. Subbases come with it, no more trying to figure out which one. You're gonna like it. Thanks for asking!

mechanical thermostats

I recently installed a mechanical thermostat (round Honeywell I believe). I have a pellet stove that is too close to the previous thermostat location, and was keeping the oil burner from kicking in, however the far reaches of my house actually had freezing pipes (oil furnace, forced hot water).

Rather than removing the old thermostat, I just bought another, ran the wire WAAAY over to it (the new one is now in a section of the house that was freezing) from the junction box where it's zone was wired, and hooked it up, disconnecting the first one and using it's junction box connection to the furnace. It appears that the red and white wire situation was done correctly.

My problem is that the furnace stays on and ramps up far past my desired setting... for example, I set it to 65, the burner kicks in, but keeps going til the temperature in the room has reached 74 or more.

There are 2 variables involved that differ from the original setup. One, is that the wire to the thermostat from the furnace is now about 25 feet longer than the original setup. Two, is that I noticed the red and white thermostat wire I bought is just a "teensy" bit thicker than the original version.

Could this be a "resistance" issue? Ideas greatly appreciated.

thanks, Tom.

heat anticipator

What value did you use to set the heat anticipator?
