thermostat is on its way out. it has a 5 year warranty so if still under warranty you don't want to wait.
Comfort sense 7000 or Honeywell 8000 are good replacements.
My 5 yr old Lennox SignatureStat thermostat had about 6-8 very dark blue vertical lines over an inch of the display. It was not possible to see anything where the lines were. I pressed menu, went in a few options, the lines were always there. I walked away and came back 2-3 hours later and the lines were gone.
Is this sign of an early death for my t-sat? Should I wait longer or have it changed VERY soon? I see this t-sat is not manufactured anymore. What would be an excellent replacement?
Thanks for your help and advice.

Thanks Ted.
I'm one month passed the warranty Isn't that funny!!!! I know it is a VERY wild guess, but based on your experience, how much life might I still have with this t-stat? I really love this t-stat (my only complaint is the small display screen).
I'll look into your suggestions. Also, could you confirm that the 7000 will behave like the SignatureStat during a blackout and retain all the settings (ok, except maybe for the clock to lose 1 minute per hour without power... ) My initial research seems to indicate that.
Thanks.
no way of knowing how much time you have left, i usually don't see them till they're dead.
7000 will retain program during power outage.
