Hi Dan,
No offense taken nor was I trying to throw flames. APT is such a store
house of wonderful tech info that they willingly give out, and all
without being transferred several times to get it from a soul who looks
it up in a book! They are like Frank Clarici, a national treasure!
APT has my vote for the cutting edge and tried and proven goodies. I
always say, go with the good guys where it counts. Thermostats are easy
to replace, cranks aren't!
Regards, Paul
