I have old Sears model with wires labled white -W , blue-G , red-RC , orange Y ,black -RH , and want to change over to a new programmable digital Noma 5+1+1 with these wires green, yellow, red, and white.Can you help me know which posts to put these wires onto.
Many ThanksHow do I change a Sears non-programmable thermostat five wire Heat/Cool to Noma Programmable Digital 4 wiresounds like you have a heat pump. the new stat wont work for a heat pump. there is no O terminal for the reversing valve.
if you really do have a heat pump, a programmable stat really is not for you. heat pumps really want to keep your house at an even temp. if you try to swing the temp too much you will put the heat pump into emer heat mode and spend twice the money that you would have saved.
put your old stat back on, and get your money back for the programmable one.

My car is over heating i change the thermostat, but it is still over heating when i drive long distance.?
when i turn the car off i hear gurgling behind the dash board.My car is over heating i change the thermostat, but it is still over heating when i drive long distance.?What's the year make and model of your car. If it's over 10 years old your radiator owes you nothing. Scale, corrosion and rust builds up in an unmaintained cooling system. The cooling system should be drained flushed cleaned before spending money on a new radiator.
Are the electric fans running? Is the radiator cross-tubes and fins clean? Drain and flush the system. Try two 33 oz. plastic bottles of Prestone Super Radiator cleaner fill till full with plain water. Drive the car at least 200 miles before draining and flushing again.My car is over heating i change the thermostat, but it is still over heating when i drive long distance.?That's some BS. Take it to the mechanic for more tests... run the heat on full blast to help cool the engine for now... does it happen to be a PT or another crysler? wouldn't surprise me in the least...My car is over heating i change the thermostat, but it is still over heating when i drive long distance.?go to the repair shop, sounds like your Rad or water pump is gone.My car is over heating i change the thermostat, but it is still over heating when i drive long distance.?One of two things. Either your radiator is not full or you've added too much antifreeze or you only have antifreeze in your radiator. It's suppose to be 50/50 mixture. Antifreeze holds heat better than water, that's why it's great to have it in the summer. It doesn't react to heat as fast. However, too much antifreeze holds too much heat and causes your car to over heat. Does your radiator/hoses have any leaks or did it and you were adding straight antifreeze.ie hosted control remove sunless tanning spray

With a programmable thermostat by enerstat, how do I change from f to c?
Without knowing exactly which model it is, it's tricky to know for sure. I've attached a link to at least one Enerstat users manual. It says that you should simultaneously press the %26quot;s%26quot; and %26quot;t%26quot; buttons.
Even if this isn't exactly your unit, its worth a try.

My thermostat reads change water panel. What does that mean?
your air conditioner probably is a dehumidifier as well and needs the water panel changed.My thermostat reads change water panel. What does that mean?change the panel.My thermostat reads change water panel. What does that mean?Sounds like it got some humidity in it from the heat. And oh yea, probably want to change that water panel real soon, k?My thermostat reads change water panel. What does that mean?thermostsat for what?
Does constantly changing the thermostat temperature 2-3 degrees affect electricity usage?
Would changing the thermostat back up and down 2-3 degrees affect electricity usage rather than keeping it at one temperature. For example, my roomates like to change the thermostat around 2 degrees lower at night then change it up again in the day.
I always thought this would cause the AC to work harder to maintain the temperature, thus leading to a high electricity bill.Does constantly changing the thermostat temperature 2-3 degrees affect electricity usage?The rule of thumb is that you can save about 3% on your heating bill for every degree that you set back your thermostatDoes constantly changing the thermostat temperature 2-3 degrees affect electricity usage?yes
we did a 2 yr study on changing the temp at night and turning it back up in the am, with a programmable thermostat,
we dropped the temp 5 deg at night, then back to 70 at day time
for 1 yr then we removed the programmable one and went to a standard thermostat, and left it at 69 deg 24/7
we saved over $1,000 a yr on the electric and fuel bill with the standard thermostat.Does constantly changing the thermostat temperature 2-3 degrees affect electricity usage?Ultimately depends on the time of year. I'm assuming we're talking about the summer because you said AC. If you turn the thermostat higher during the day (when its hotter), then the AC unit will work less often, thus saving you energy. At the night when it's cooler, even though the AC thermostat has been lowered, the AC unit doesn't have to compete with the sun's direct heat which makes it cheaper to operate.Does constantly changing the thermostat temperature 2-3 degrees affect electricity usage?Any time you set your thermostat down you save money. Anytime you raise you thermostat it is costing you money.
If you set it down 2 degs you are saving money. If you set it back up to the original setting you will be right back where you started if you hadn't set it down. You save money during the time it is set down and you spend the same money during the time it is set back to the original setting. A net saving.
People so think otherwise have never sat down and done the math.Does constantly changing the thermostat temperature 2-3 degrees affect electricity usage?adjusting your thermostat 2-3 will only save you money.
adjusting it 10+ is where your theory baffles many. but it still saves money...
the lower the thermostat the more money you will save no matter how much you change it.Does constantly changing the thermostat temperature 2-3 degrees affect electricity usage?It is all relative . So it all averages out.Does constantly changing the thermostat temperature 2-3 degrees affect electricity usage?when it goes lower it saves you money that is what you are suppose to do 5degrees is betterDoes constantly changing the thermostat temperature 2-3 degrees affect electricity usage?When you ask, %26quot;Does constantly changing the thermostat....affect electricity usage?%26quot;, the answer is %26quot;Yes, it saves electricity usage.%26quot; Any time you turn something off, you save, and raising the AC thermostat setting will turn the AC off for longer periods of time. You cannot save more than when the unit is off.
However, when you ask, %26quot;Does changing the thermostat cause the AC to work harder to maintain the temperature?%26quot;, again the answer is %26quot;Yes, it will be harder to maintain the desired temp.%26quot; This is where most people think that the catch up time causes the unit to run more and therefore use more electricity. When outside temps are changing, it is harder to illustrate my next point and make comparisons. So, first, consider the following.
Let's say that the outside temp maintains an outside temp of 100 degrees F. Let's also say that the AC in question is able to cool the house to 78 degrees F, and no lower, as long as the outside temp maintains 100 deg. F. If I keep my thermostat at 77 degrees, my AC will run 24/7, and will never turn off. If I raise my thermostat two or three degrees, my AC will enjoy SOME off time, and therefore save SOME electricity. As the thermostat setting is lowered, longer run times will be required of the AC to maintain the lower temp.
The above scenario is almost exactly the way it has been where I live. When the outside temp is approx. 95 to 100, the inside temp of my house would never get below 78 degrees. When my wife and I leave home in the morning, if we keep the thermostat at 72 degrees, the house would be at 78 when I got home in the early afternoon. At night when the outside temp lowers to 70 or 75 degrees, there obviously will be a point when the thermostat will be satisfied and turn off the AC. However the lower the thermostat setting, again the longer the AC will run. I thought that if I kept the AC on all day with the thermostat setting as low as 72, that's the temp I would enjoy when I got home. My AC was never going to be able to reach that temp anyway.
Notice the following quote from Michael Bluejay's website:
%26quot;It's a myth that leaving the AC on while you're away at work uses less energy than turning it on when you get home. Here's why:
Heat goes to where it's not. That's why heat from outside goes into your cooler home. With the AC off, at some point your house will be so hot it can't absorb any more heat. When you come home and turn the AC on, the AC removes all that heat.
But if the AC is on when you're gone, then you've turned your house into a heat magnet. But keeping it artificially cool, there's no limit to the amount of heat it can absorb. It can always absorb more heat. And your AC has to remove that heat constantly. Your AC kicks in and removes some of that heat, then the house is cooler so it sucks in more heat from outside, so your AC kicks in again and removes that heat, and so on.
This means that throughout the day, your house has absorbed way more than one houseful of heat. And your AC had to remove it all. By contrast, with the AC off all day, then it has to remove just one houseful of heat when you come home and turn it on.
Let's say you leave the AC off, and your house absorbs 20k BTU's of heat and then stops, because that's all it can absorb.
Now let's say that you have the AC running instead. The house absorbs 5k BTU's of heat, so the AC kicks in and removes it. Then it absorbs another 5k BTU's, and your AC kicks in and removes that. Repeat that process several times during the day.
The actual numbers will vary, and I haven't tested this to see exactly how much the penalty for leaving the AC on during the day is, but there is zero question that running the AC all the time uses more energy than turning it on when you get home. This is not a gray area, it's simple physics, and no person with any knowledge of this subject disputes it. Running the AC when you're not home wastes energy, period.%26quot;
I hope this helps.

How much will it cost to change a thermostat gasket on a ford thunderbird at a shop its leaking on the bottom?
is a 3.8 lxHow much will it cost to change a thermostat gasket on a ford thunderbird at a shop its leaking on the bottom?It shouldn't be more then 30 to 60 mins of labour fees and I'd have them install a new thermostat at the same time but I'd buy it myself and bring it into the shop with the vehicle.
Hope that helps and best of luck.By the way call around or go to the shops with the vehicle for quotes.I'd also have them use high temperature gasket maker instead of the reg gasket on that.How much will it cost to change a thermostat gasket on a ford thunderbird at a shop its leaking on the bottom?look at this guy 215.00??? wowzers what a rip off. where is his shop so we can al avoid this monkey?i would do it at your house foe 20 bucks plus the part.
