    Confused Thermostat issues

    I installed a 5 ton 16 seer Goodman condenser and coil, but the unit wasn't cooling the house as it should. After speaking with a fellow worker I realized that I didn't have a two stage thermostat. My problem is how do I connect the thermostat so that I can get the best efficiency that I can from the unit. Anyone's help is appreciated.

    You won't get any DIY help on this site.

    You need a good t-stat like the Honeywell VisionPro 8000 series that can handle a 2-stage condenser. Then all you have to do is follow the installation instructions for the t-stat.

    Good luck.

    How many times must one fix something before it is fixed?
