Dometic Duo therm and furnace come on at same time
Greetings
My Dometic duo therm thermostat has malfunctioned. I believe.
The model is the square one with the 2 digit LCD it does fan cool and heat. I tried to put a link here but it didn't work.
We are out this weekend and it is unseasonably cold here in the northeast. I turned the furnace on via the tstat and the air conditioner fan started. Maybe the compressor too, but it was pretty cold outside. The furnace waited its usual delay, then purged, and fired up just fine. The only way I could get the air conditioner turned off was to turn the circuit breake for it off
So, in short, when I use my furnace, the air conditioner comes on too. The trailer is a 2011 bullet premier. I tried to find the manual for the tstat/ac but it's not with the rest of my manuals. I am sure I can find one online but I currently have very limited Internet access while on the road.
If I had my druthers I'd like to get two separate, mechanical tstats one for each system. I am wondering if this can be done given the electronic involved. Are all the electronics in the tstat? Or is there another controller someplace?
Any help or advice welcome. Thanks.
