Electric heat pump auxilery heat problem
Equipment:
Trane XL1400 4 years old
Auxilery heat: Strips... 2 -60Amp circuits
Filters changed every 30 days
I cleaned outdoor unit summer 2006, as every year.
Thermostat: Honeywell Chromotherm II
Problem: I have been noticing at times the aux heat kicking in at times I think it should not.
It is obvious as I can feel the very warm air genrerated and then look at the thermostat and see the green (aux) lamp on.
Just noticed it a while ago as well. It is 38 degrees F damp and windy today.
What are the possibilities?
