    Being in a small and efficient house, the teeniest of adjustments on the regulator have a huge impact on house temperature. So why not make it easier to be really pedantic about it? Pretty simple mod anyone can do. Might work with more that just the Chinook 20.2. If you're wondering why the...

    Quadra-Fire Santa Fe and Honeywell CT87K1004

    I tried replacing my broken Lux thermostat today with this simple CT87K1004 and the pellet stove just clicks repeatedly when there is no call for heat. Are these two not compatible? The stove works perfectly when I jump the R and W wires together manually. Thanks! Mike
