Programmable thermostat for heat pump system
I am hoping I can get a solid answer for this question...
I would like to replace my lever style thermostat with a programmable thermostat... I read around on the good old internet and all I see is a few universal thermostats are "compatible" with heat pumps. I don't know if that just means they will power the heat pump on or if there is an actual setting that allows me to turn on/off the backup heater and it will switch automatically or if it means it will just kind of work... Anyone have suggestions? I basically want to program the thermostat to heat or cool the house so it's at a good temp when I get home. The HVAC will be at that temp maybe 6 hours out of the day. Is there a good thermostat someone can recommend that works with heat pumps? Thanks in advance! |
