I'll try again to explain. If I want my house at 70, I might sent the
t-stat to 80. The furnace comes on, then cycles off as the air near the
t-stat is 80. As the heat in the air warms the rest of the stuff, its temp
drops, and the furnace cyles on. Once the system has done this a few time,
I reset the t-stat to 70.


How quaint. You're obviously American.

The rest of the planet understands thermostats.
