Its a slide job and it's either roasting hot or to cool. I have seen mods of people putting different thermostats in.. Is this a very simple mod ? Or do I need a special kind ? 2012 K/z Spree escape 18rbt "Give blood Play Hockey" downtheroad • View posts Pacific Northwest Senior Member Joined: 02/18/2003 View Profile Posted: 02/05/12 02:52pm Link  |  Quote  |  Print  |  Notify Moderator Start with this..>HERE< "If we couldn't laugh we would all go insane" GMC Duramax/Allison (LBZ) Komfort ....

Regular home style T stat works great and not hard to install at all. Just be sure to get one with batteries as shown above. 2004 Trail Lite Bantam B23 2012 Ford F150 with ecoboost No substitute for experience Old-Biscuit • View posts Across the USA Senior Member Joined: 06/20/2009 View Profile Posted: 02/05/12 03:16pm Link  |  Quote  |  Print  |  Notify Moderator What brand/model is your OEM thermostat? Couple of different ways to hook up the Hunter Digital depending on make of OEM. Somebody here has the different instructions...... OR do a search for Hunter Thermostat. It's a simple conversion and well worth it. Some install a mini switch so they have high & low fan speed selection. Never using the low setting on my OEM I just did the straight install and only wired the fan speed for high. bikendan • View posts Napa, Cal.

Sorry, no pics and the HTT's in storage.

I had adjusted the Anticipator on my old thermostat. The Hunter 4299b worked like a champ. Only thing is I should have gotten one that was backlite. But now the temp swing is 3 degrees and not 10 or 12....thanks all for the confidence and instructions and the simplicity. 2008 F-250 6.4L 2003 Keystone Cougar 286EFS Chuck_S • View posts Broadview Hts, OH, USA Senior Member Joined: 03/15/2002 View Profile Offline Posted: 02/11/12 09:54am Link  |  Quote  |  Print  |  Notify Moderator The Hunter works well for an integrated ducted AC/Furnace system. Will control the furnace nicely with Blast from the Center AC systems but won't do a thing for the AC part. Adjusting the anticipator will usually control the furnace more tightly but a digital thermostat is less than $30 and maybe less than $20. As noted it must be battery operated to work in a camper. -- Chuck '06 Roo 23SS behind '07 Expedition out of Cleveland Our Photo pages Reply to Topic  |  Subscribe  |  Print Topic  |  Post New Topic  |  Oldest first Newest first  Open Roads Forum  >  Hybrid Travel Trailers  > Thermostat
