Re: the VIP thermostat

I don't know what list it was on but evidently, at
least some of these computerized thermostats have a range you can set where the
thermostat will make the furnace turn on if the temperature drops too low below
its setting or, I suppose, for air conditioning if it goes too high up.
Perhaps the range needs adjusting.
