Right away, I found that no one will be the least bit conscientious about the A/C temp. They had windows & doors open and the A/C was set at 65*. Needless to say I was not happy about that, nor was I happy about the slobs throwing wet towels every where on my new wooden floors and antique dressers. So in the future to avoid this rudeness, I plan to install a thermostat that I can program, however I want one that is not re-programmable by anyone else. What do you recommend? I was thinking some thing that has a code, I'd hate to lock it but I will if I have to. I have a property we can’t sell so we are renting it as a vacation rental until we can find a long term renter.

I purchased the Honeywell 5.1.1 also and just installed it. I was afraid of the electrical but read that these are low voltage. I'm happy to say that it seems to work correctly - furnace starts and stops according to temperature setting. Can't wait to see if it really saves money this winter.
