I just bought a condo and before the deal went through, i had the seller replace all the electric forced air units as they were old. One of the three does not seem to register any type of temperature controls from the thermostat (a simple king single pole dial).
I replaced this yesterday (being sure to hook it up exactly the same as before) but the problem still exists. When turned all the way down, it is off, when turned up, the heater comes on but will not shut off regardless of the temp in the room.
My question is this... given that this was just replaced, if the person that did it accidentally swapped the wires, could this cause this type of behavior? i am hoping i can quickly fix this if so but don't want to go in and start swapping wires for the heck of it.
thanks
