14 month old kiddo who is all over the place - plus on our first floor we only have one room that is carpet (one hardwood, and one tile)

Sounds like you have terrible insulation.

No reason you should ever have to set it that high.

I tell people to get a new digital thermostat from Home Despot or Lowes.
You can program that sucker to do all kinds of neat stuff and it will save you some money! :biggrin:
I have Hunter's model 44110, good and cheap! Honeywell is another good brand.

The geek who sold us our new system talked us into a programmable. The damn thing has a mind of its own. We set it high, it goes low. We set it low, it goes high. NEVER will I get anything but a manual thermostat ever again...one that stays where it's set until we change it.

Damn, that's like throwing money down a rathole.

we only pay 120 per month (budget) its pretty much break even from the first year that we weren't on the budget. our first full year in the house we spent ~1300 in gas, the budget is 1440 - and we don't have to worry about turning it down to save money.
