Reddit mentions of Honeywell TL8230A1003 Line Volt Thermostat 240/208 VAC 7 Day Programmble

Keep doors to unused rooms closed. Electric is very efficient, it's just that it's usually more expensive than gas. Light bulbs double as 100 percent efficient heaters. Fans on low generate heat and, if spinning in the proper direction help circulate warm air from the ceiling. Depending on your gas heater, some thermoelectric fans are pretty helpful.

Agree with the CO monitors. I have a Nest monitor and it doubles as a nice nightlight.

If you have electric baseboards or forced air, they can be more efficiently controlled with a new thermostat. Chances are you have the shitty twist knob ones that heat the room to 90 then turn off until it's 50 again.

Sounds like you are looking for a stat like this http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0016J2CYQ/ref=psdc_2054378011_t1_B002Z7EBBU

Sadly you have a direct voltage / line voltage setup (240V). You'd insta-fry your Nest with this.

The best you can get (I've been in your situation before) are these: https://www.amazon.com/Honeywell-TL8230A1003-Line-Thermostat-Programmble/dp/B0016J2CYQ/r

​

Which still make a huge difference, cost savings wise, to what you have.

Would something like this work? The other one seems really expensive for such limited functionality.

Haven't taken the old ones down yet, just spoke with the condo manager...

I have this one, works great - nice back light and programmable

I don't know about keeping it on all the time but I have baseboard heat in my home and I have Honeywell digital thermostats that have five levels of heat output indicated by little flames on the display. It turns on the lowest setting to maintain the set temperature. Two of mine are programmable and one is not but they all have the ability to vary the heat output.

Here is the programmable version:

Here is the standard non programmable one:

Thanks. A electrician friend checked it out and looks like 240v pulling about 13 amps. Wired up with 2 wires currently, but he recommended this control and to adjust the way it's wired right now. https://www.amazon.com/Honeywell-TL8230A1003-Line-Thermostat-Programmble/dp/B0016J2CYQ/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1483460790&sr=8-1&keywords=honeywell+line+voltage+thermostat
