I'm freezing!
I have a Trane gas central H&C unit. The heat will not come on untill the
temp in the house gets below 50 degrees and will stop when it reaches 70. No matter what I have my thermostat set at. I have had a service man come and look at it. I have spent about $500 and the problem still exist. The last time he came out he installed a reset switch on the outside of the unit and said that when it cuts off I could go outside and reset it. Well, that sucks. Especially when you wake up a 2 am in the morning freezing. I asked him if it could be the thermostat and he said no. The unit is about 17 yrs old. He said I need a new unit. What do you think. Am I being Hoodooed or what? |

Sounds like a thermostat problem. I'd call another tech to confirm this.
