    Mercury to digital thermostat
    I have 2 wires coming through the wall to my old mercury thermostat, black and white. Where do they connect on the new digital thermostat? I do not have a wiring diagram. Thank you

    You have a heat only system so look on your furnace to see where the black and white wires are connected to, and wire the thermostat the same way. Typically it's the R and W connection.
