WAY Off Topic today...
Trying to replace this thermostat-  With this one-  The wires I have are shown in the top picture, but the plugs I have on the units themselves seem to be different. Any ideas? This controls an oil furnace which definitely makes heat, and might be responsible for making cool? When I asked my girlfriend where the cool air came from in the summer she smiled and pointed to the furnace room. |

I officially give up. Anybody know what I need to do with those wires? G looks like ground, I see a Y and an R, but I'm thrown by the E/W1...there is a W on the new one, does that go there?
Thanks in advance. |

Adam,
First, use the "conventional" terminal ID's on the new. The white wire will go to "W" on the new T stat. It's the 24volt out when the stat calls for heat. The red wire will go to "R" on the new. It's the 24 volt power. The blue wire (which is typically yellow) will go on the "Y" on the new The wire that's on the "G" goes on the "G" on the new. BTW, it's not a ground but rather the switched power to the fan. |

Awesome, thanks Pete! I figured you would know the answer, your HD was just a little too far of a drive and I didn't know if you had a shift today.

Adam, I was actually scheduled for the late shift today but called in that I wasn't going to make it. I called at 10:00 am and was the 18 associate to call. That's the complete shift!!! The only two that did make it was the head cashier who answered the phone and the assistant manager who was out front running the snow blower. I don't think the store will see many customers today since we are getting hit with some major snow. I measured 12" this morning and the forecast is calling for the heavy snow to continue until tomorrow morning. I blew the driveway once this morning and now it doesn't even look like it was touched!! |

ha, this last move (which I'm still kindof in the middle of) was not job related at all, it was female related. I'm not sure if my job knows which state I'm in at this point. I keep logging in and every two weeks a check hits my bank account so I don't ask too many questions.

I'm sticking it out up here. It's not really bad. From Saturday morning to this morning the official snow total is 22" and it's snowing again now!!  Also, don't forget that Gary is a part time southerner. He wimps out heading south way before there's any snow in the forecast!

Adam you have to remember that John and I spent our working careers outside. I can't speak for John but I don't care if I ever see another winter. Pete on the other hand worked inside....
Here is a fun winter story |

The real truth is Adam failed his North Carolina Green Card Test. To get his Ohio to NC Green Card the state ICE office asked him only one question. You do not get a second chance to get the correct answer and if you answer it wrong, you must leave the state immediately. The test question is as follows: Who is the President of the US? Adam answered President Donald Trump. He was immediately removed from the state to the next closest state to Ohio which is Tennessee. The correct answer is President Jefferson Davis. The only reason NC even considered accepting him was his father, Jackie Dean long resident of Georgia, moved from Georgia to Ohio. This left open a spot in the south. This was considered reverse chain migration. Donald |
