Roger,Bob, We've installed a lot of these fake t/stats in places where we have Commercial Air Con equipment and I must agree with you Bob, it really does work!. Most of the time, these are installed because we are sick and tired of going to reset the roof-mounted units that have gone out on O/Load because the things have been cranked up to a Million degrees (or minus a Million) and all the windows are open too!. Oh and by the way, we tell them to keep the darned windows shut, too!.
