I have 2 heaters (baseboard type) in my basement. They seem to have a mind of their own, and turn themselves on even when the switch (or thermostat) is set to "off" or "zero".
I had a thermostat replaced by an electrician and he said the baseboard heater was indeed working. Confused, it seemed to be ok for a while, but then they magically turn themselves on and money is going out the window.
I removed a single 'breaker' from the breaker-panel that controls the heaters in the basement. I dunno if this is safe thing to do, but it turns off the baseboards and fixes the problem (temporarily).
What could be going on here?
Thanks in advance, GKD
