I have a INDIGLO programmable thermostat. It worked ok when I was gone during the day at work, but I am now retired and that thing is really pissing me off. I bet I go to that thing 30 times a day to increase the heat. I set the heat to maybe 65, and an hour later its back t 60 again. I turn it up, an hour later it's 60 again. This is reduculous.
Does anyone know if there is a way to override these things? Otherwise I am going to just get rid of it and get a regular thermostat. One would think that when I raise the heat to 65 it would stay that way until the next daily change. In other words, I had it set to go to 55 during the day when I was at work, and change to 65 shortly before I returned home. But somehow this thing decided to set itself to always default to 60, and everytime i raise it, it heats to whatever I set it to, then once it heats that ONE TIME, it goes back to 60. We are having a cold spell, and I have not been feeling well and staying in bed, but I got to keep getting out of bed to raise the heat every hour. This thing is really pissing me off.
Can they be made to work as a regular thermostat (stay at the temp I turn it to), or do I need to replace it?
