Temporary Construction Thermostat - Heating Only 70° F
Reduces fuel bills during the construction process. "No more high fuel bills caused by construction workers turning up the thermostat and leaving." Low cost (about ½ the cost of a conventional thermostat). Available in many temperatures for both heating and cooling. Rugged construction. Heat, moisture, paint and drywall dust do not affect its operation. Mercury-free. Safe for the environment.
How Temp-StatT works: Temp-StatT works just like any other heat-only or cool-only thermostat. It is a special bimetal thermostat with the same characteristics as any room thermostat.
How will it save the contractor time and money: Temp-StatT is about ½ the cost of a conventional thermostat. It only takes two (2) wires from the HVAC unit to work. It can simply be connected to the "R" and "W" (for heating) wires with wire nuts. It can literally hang off the wall during construction. Temp-StatT does not need to be mounted or level. If preferred, it can be mounted in the return air ductwork. Additionally it prevents the theft or damage of the permanent thermostat
We installed this product in an apartment when we could know longer get the product we currently use because it contained mercury. We installed it in a tamper proof enclosure.It operates that apartments zone valve very well. We checked the accuracy with a thermometer, it was right on. It would be nice if they were made in two degree increments.

Comments about Jackson Systems Temp-StatT TS-70:
Installed inline in the thermostat circuit, tenants can tamper with settings without exceeding a comfortable 70deg, but they can turn it lower. No more 99degrees and 10 open windows, much lower fuel bills.
