Just converted from oil to gas yesterday and had a Ruud Achiever 90+ (UGRK-07EMAES) gas furnace installed. Apparently no TS comes with it so I'm confused on which ones work with this model. The one I have is really old honeywell. Can I get some suggestions? I don't need a super fancy one.

The BEST comfort comes from a good 2 stage thermostat that will fire the furnace on low or high based on the needs of the home. The cheap way is a single stage thermostat, then the timer in the furnace will switch to high whether more heat is needed or not.

Personally I'd ask the dealer to install a 2 stage stat. Focus Pro, Vision Pro, White-Rodgers 1F85 or 1F95-1271.

Twilli wonders what kind of HVAC contractor doesn't include a stat????

I guess I do get a digital TS! I knew that I mentioned it before. I'll let you know which one it is..

THANKS everyone for the input.
