[Nfbmd] Opinions on Programmable Thermostats

[Lloyd Rasmussen]

We are continuing to use a Kelvin thermostat from I L A. But I don’t think they have been coming out with newer models to deal with changes in equipment.
Some people I have talked with are happy with the VIP thermostats from talkingthermostats.com , a company near Minneapolis. They have two models listed on their website, and I suspect that one of them would work for you. The site tried to launch Windows Media Player when I opened it; I closed that and read the info with Window-Eyes. I have talked with the proprietor on ham radio a couple of times, and he seems to have a good and honest attitude.

Hello  Fellow Federationists,

 

Recently, I  had to replace my central air conditioning system and heating. The system came with a  touch pad thermostat which of course, I  could not use. I  am asking the company to provide me with a  talking thermostat but am trying to find some information about what is current to give them a  name.

 

I  have a  10 year old one I  purchased from NFB but that does not seem to be working well with the new system. To be honest, since the system has the new refrigerant, I  probably need to get a  new one anyhow. That is probably why they tried to replace what I  had. Can anyone give me any ideas? I  checked on Google, but am not getting the answers I  think I  need. I  believe this is a forum where I  can get some decent answers.

 

Thanks,

 

Michelle
