Why do home improvement projects never go as planned?
I bought a new thermostat. The box said to make sure a 'C' wire (for power) is used in your old thermostat. Well since my old thermostat has an LCD display and is obviously powered, I figured it won't be a problem.
The new thermostat arrived this weekend so I remove the old thermostat, look at the wiring and see I have an 'R' wire, 'Y' wire, 'G' wire, 'W' wire but no friggen 'C' wire!!! Damn.
Now I'm climbing up into my attic to look at the heater control panel. Curse you founder of Home Depot!!!
