I'm looking for the emer option, because I have geo thermal with electric backup furnace? Does this thermo have emer?

I'm not sure - I haven't heard of it on this stat - you can check their web site with this model # - my unit runs my AC and furnace just fine when in 'auto' mode -

I don't believe so because this thermo is designed for single-stage. Here's a pdf of the wiring diagram for your review. http://www.emersonclimate.com/Documents/White-Rodgers/instruction_sheets/0037-6754.pdf

I think it has electric heating elements, but you should just contact customer service, they're very knowledgeable

Yes the ecotemp does not have a thermostat. You control the temperature of the water with two knobs one for water flow the other for gas.

It does need more space from the stove... The reason is that the wiring which controls the fan and thermostat can and will burn up inside the reclaimer body. Burning coal isn't a real problem as long as you move the tube cleaner back and forth a few times a day. This is well worth the money if you can find a way to fit it in your system.

Hi Jacob. There are four major components to this furnace. The heating coil and the thermocoupler are usually the only things to really "burn out". The heating coil is wrapped inside the square part of the furnace where you drop the graphite crucible into. The thermocoupler is the little probe that sticks up into the heating chamber, where you drop the crucible into, from the bottom. Usually those are the parts that will eventually need replacing. They are like light bulbs and have a limited life span. But we have both of those parts available. We'll actually replace them for 3 months. If they fail after 3 months they are available for purchase. The heating chamber comes as the whole top of the furnace and costs $80.35. The thermocoupler is available for $19.99. If you have any questions please feel free to email us or call us directly Monday-Friday 8AM-4PM PST @ 1-866-425-4693.

I think it is a trade-off... Our main gas furnace does not come on as much, but the room the little heater is in is much warmer than it is using the gas furnace alone. In the end I think the electric bill goes up a little and the natural gas bill goes down a little. This being said, I liked this heater so much though, that I bought another for a different place in my cold Michigan house.

I am not familiar with the other one. This one is well constructed. Looks great. Rolls easily. I have it in my living room that has 2 6ft openings on each end. It heats this room well but takes a little time to get there. I use to maintain temp in the room. It is located below my thermostat. in a more closed in area it would really heat well. I plan to get another for basement when I finish off a room. the remote works well. This is my second heating season with it. blower is a touch loud but not bad. I turn up TV just a bit. But its not annoying in any way. I get lots of compliments on it. I recommend it I am not familiar with the other one. This one is well constructed. Looks great. Rolls easily.

the one I have, as far as I know, only has the mineral heat plate that needs to be replaced depending on use. I would recommend buying an extra plate so that you have it ready when needed. Although, we have not had to replace ours yet, and we have had it for over a year. Again, it all depends on usage.

This heater is ventless. No vent needed. I would get a carbon monoxide detector, even though the heater has an oxygen sensor that will cut off the unit if the oxygen level falls below 19.4%. The heater works well, maintaining a constant temperature. 20,000 BTU is a lot of heat. We use ours as a supplement to our heat pump in very cold weather so it doesn't go into emergency (electric) mode.

I use this with an inside gas heater, and an outside Heatp/AC unit. Automatically switches between hot and cold, to maintain your settings. I believe there is a newer model. Basically the same, but has different color choices on the display. I am happy with the device!

I replaced the unit my self and there was a separate wall switch that controled the heater but do not know if a thermosat can be installed in place of the wall switch or not. This sounds more like a question to the manufacture. The other answers sound to me to be more correct.

I think this can replace your thermostat. You didn't say if the system was electric or gas (hot water) heating but the heavy current is probably being handled by a system relay. You can download the manual and installation document from Honeywell for additional information, and/or check with a heating contractor to be sure.

Yes! I prefer gas as it's easier to control temp. With electric I use 2 burners, one to bring to temperature and one set on med-low for timing. Electric does not respond as quickly as gas for heat control. Hope this helps, I love my Fagor and use it quite a bit.

Sorry, no idea. I have an old fashioned hot water heat system (with the cast iron 'accordion' radiators) which is powered by natural gas. That is what I thought this unit was for and that is why I got it. I'd contact Honeywell's customer service line.

yes this unit works fine it works just like a thermostat - i have 3 blue flames @ my residence - currently i am in the process of removing my heating system as the blue flames are very efficient and operate wether the power is on or off - also i will have a fourth installed by october

More information is neededsuch as what system do you have. Is it just a furnace or does it incorporate central air. And what connections were on the old thermostat (w,r,y,g)?

I suggest you call Treager at 800-372-3437. They are very helpful with technical questions. I had the Junior and replaced the thermostat with the digital one shown on the Junnior Elite. It and it gave me more options when grilling. The installation was not easy. Since the PGT LE shows the digital thermostat it may be an option for the PTG.
