I Want My Old Dial Thermostat Back!

~ 1 day, 21 hrs ago

#msg6011004Remember before cell phones when you called a relative or friend and you actually talked to a live body ?

@billcherie2 :
But I also remember having to first having to go through a parent before getting to speak to a friend.

I know my dad wanted to screen the boys that would call and would mess with them. I know our sons are glad they didn't have to do it girls parents

I also do not miss not knowing if my kids or husband are ok if they are not at home. I'm a worrier.

#msg6011200Cbear : I understand! If your thermostat is like mine you will be able to control it from anywhere. When I am away from home for the day I can turn it up and then turn it back down before I get home. I think it saves me on my electric bill. There is no reason to have the house at 70 degrees if no one is home.

@TEXASGIRLMAMMA : Eeeek! 70? At night, I set mine to 76 (upstairs thermostat as you know) and downstairs is 72. I sleep with my fan on level 6 with a tower fan on me too at level 3.

@Cbear : That would be too hot for me. The t-stat is upstairs. I need to check to find out what the temp is downstairs. It has to be lower then upstairs.

@TEXASGIRLMAMMA : My T stat is upstairs and usually downstairs is 4 degree's cooler. I do have an open concept so maybe that makes a difference. IDK.

There are a lot of old things I miss, but those old thermostats are definitely not one of them!

@Cbear : It could make a difference. I am going to have to put a thermostat downstairs to check it.
