The honeywell does not have a variable swing feature, and is set at 1 degree. Or for my setup with forced air and high efficiency gas it would cycle 3 -5 times per hour. I contacted honeywell and asked t hem this and that is what the rep stated. He mentioned that the honeywell could come on before the 1 degree difference is met, in order to maintain a 1 degree difference. I am not sure how the Lux works with that. He also mentioned that if you set the thermostat for water steam equipment (something like that), then it is set at 1 CPH.
I use if for both heat and cold in ohio so we get cold weather and hot weather. Am I losing to much of a feature with no temperature swing on the honeywell? Is 3 – 5 CPH to much, or is this normal operation. Or if anyone else has thermostat recommendations I am open to that also. Again I don’t really need the nest or those typ es but would like to have wifi to control it when away for long periods of time. Thanks
