Default Need Large Lighted Thermostat Dial

The previous owner of a townhouse my parents moved into installed a
Lux programmable. It has been there for years without any problems.
In use with AC and gas furnace.

Keep in mind that the one that HD sells, is what we in the trade

call a sure
fire money maker.
If you want a lighted digital display, Robershaw makes several, that

are not
sold in retail stores, that have a backlight and digital display.
So does Totalline.
So does Honeywell.
That large display stat that HD has is like a hunter or Lux..made in

China
and a sure fire way to wonder why after a couple of months things

are acting
screwy.

The main thing is, you have to have the right sub-base, or stat for

the
application, and, the large display stat that is being talked about,

is not
available for a heat pump, so if thats what she has, HD isnt the

place to
look.
