Hi There,
The Janitrol heat pump in our newly purchased home has two stages of heating. Problem is that the first stage is the gas furnace, which makes for an EXPENSIVE start of the winter. The heat pump won't come on except in 55 plus degree heat calling, and even then, sporadically. Please someone tell me how in the world to rewire this thing so the heat pump will do its job UNTIL the outdoor temp dips to just above freezing?
FYI, the tstat is a carrier brand with the W2/O on the same terminal. DO you recommend changing the tsat? If so, what to? Also, where do I check the "outside" temperature control thermostat for the heat pump?(someone else mentioned that to me but would not say where to find such a device.) Your assistance is much appreciated.
