I was fairly certain the only thing wrong with my heater was the thermostat, although I could not be easily certain; I finally went online as well as did a search about thermostats.
- I asked the question, ‘What happens when the thermostat breaks?’, as well as got a lot of answers; The main thread of the answers is that if the batteries in the thermostat die, or the thermostat malfunctions, it can no longer communicate with the heating as well as air conditioning system.
This means the furnace could continue to run or won’t run. If you have the a/c on, it won’t reach the desired temperature, or it could freeze you out. It was really funny to think the thermostat could be the brain of the heating as well as the air conditioning system. This made me wonder what happened before they had thermostats. I should have known it would be the same answer, and without the thermostat, people had to manually adjust their temperature… You learned how much coal or wood you needed in the furnace to keep the house moderate separate from getting it too hot. I don’t know about a/c, because my Dad as well as dad didn’t have a/c, but that didn’t matter. I was definitely now even more sure that the only thing wrong with my furnace was that I needed a new thermostat or new batteries at the least. Instead of calling the heating as well as air conditioning corporation, I changed the batteries, but nothing happened. I then went to town as well as obtained a new thermostat just like the digital thermostat I already had. When that didn’t work, I was deflated. I was now simply going to need to call the heating as well as air conditioning corporation.
