Re: Problem with overheating
the last time i changed my t-stat, i immediately began having overheating problems, so i figured i had probably put it in backwards even though i make it a point to double-check it before i put the hose back on. took it apart and nope, right direction, bad t-stat [img]images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] so i lost trust in t-stats and put it back together without one, which is now catching up with me when it's 35° outside [img]images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] it was a high end one too, but still failed from day 1, so it is possible to have gotten a bad t-stat [img]images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]
i wish Ron-Bo and the fun bunch would hurry up and make the electronic t-stat technology reliable... i figure it would be pretty easy to add a manual override to that setup so that if the electronics do go kaput, you can just crank that sucker full open like they're supposed to fail but never do [img]images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]
