    New Thermostat in the mail.

    Just ordered a Ranco etc-111000 today, I was wondering if anyone is using this particular model and how reliable is it?

    I personally don't have any experience with this model, but in case it's not that great, shouldn't this question have been asked prior to purchase?

    Ranco is just as good as the johnson a419. Very simple to set and very reliable

    I use a Ranco and it gets the job done, But I wanna switch to differential thermostat(s) this year. Probably a Herpstat.
