Re: [BlindHandyMan] Heating thermostats?
Your new thermostat will work ok with only two wires if you use only the R and W terminals providing: 1. it is not and electronic thermostat with a display. 2. it is not a set-back set-up temperature according to time and has a clock in it. As with all thermostats that are not electronic, it will have to be calibrated to be used with the equipment, or the equipment recommended settings for the thermostat operation. If the electrician can't hook it up, you might need a new electricianbob [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] Yahoo! Groups Sponsor ~--> Yahoo! Groups gets a make over.

Re: [BlindHandyMan] Heating thermostats?
I had my natural gas company furnish mine free of charge. Here in Pennsylvania, they even installed them free of charge. RJ - Original Message - From: Andy LaPointe To: blindhandyman@yahoogroups.com Sent: Friday, March 09, 2007 5:35 PM Subject: [BlindHandyMan] Heating thermostats? Hi, I went to home depot and purchased 2 honeywell "EASY TO READ" raised number-click style thermostats. My electrician said that this wasn't going to work properly because what I need is just a 2 wire/heating oil forced hot water version. The one I got was a five wire for heat colling and hot water ect version. I called Honeywell to see if Ican get the one I need and not getting anywhere. Can someone tell me where I can get something that a blind person can use like this? I know there is the talking thermostat but, all I need is the basic put-it-on 68 degrees type. Any help will be greatly appreciated. p.s. My electrician is also trying some supply houses. If I can get a model number or something, It may be easier. Andy.

RE: [BlindHandyMan] Heating thermostats?
I think I bought a cheap one from Independent Living Aids that's easy-to-use. It is tactile, and it clicks every two degrees ;f.

Re: [BlindHandyMan] Heating thermostats?
If that's all you need, then, why not get a simple thermostat and have a sighty put marks on the dial every 5 degrees or so. This should work unless there are no stops at either end of the dial's travel.
