I heat my house with a indoor wood boiler, or hot water stove. I also have a fire place insert woodstove, then I have a Utica oil boiler for backup. Well I have been using the kitchen insert to heat the house and cook apples down on for apple sauce. It's been pretty cold and windy and the insert can't really heat the whole house, 5 bedrooms, ect. So I fired up the oil boiler, I set the thermostat to 69, I noticed it was getting warm in the house and so did the wife, who's always cold. I look at thermostat and it says 71, but boiler kept running, I change battery's in thermo and still keeps running. Well I took the up stairs thermo and put it in the 1st floor thermostat and boiler finally shut off?? I guess the lux thermo is bad. Can anyone recommend a good digital thermostat that is lighted? One thing I hated about these lux ones was you can't read if it the dark. This is what I have now. Thanks for any advice. J
