Why are you such a trollish Klown?


Or are you naturally stupid when it comes to furnaces and thermostats?


Any boob knows that it's the thermostat that controls the cycling of the
furnace.


You can make ANY furnace short-cycle given a tight temperature span.


Sure... go ahead on... you know what your doing, so you don't need to
worry
with posting questions about ancient POS big box stats.... when you can
get
a good one for $50 or so.


Just cause your "HVAC Guy" doesn't mean squat.... you should have a decent
stat on your truck that you can use instead of screwing with a POS.


The Honneywell Magic Stat was nothing but a wet dream without any
thought to accurate differential control . *It shouldnt have even been
on the market *and no doubt, it didnt do much for Honneywells
reputation *which youd think theyd be quite interested in
maintaining.

the magic was how it lined honeywells pockets...it was in the same class as
hunter stats


Totally agree . The Hunter wouldnt properly control anything beyond
a .4 amp device in the heating mode.
