Measuring the Low Side of the Thermostat Housing



This should be self explanatory as I'm measuring both sides of the thermostat. Comparing these two numbers will give you an idea of how the t-stat is operating and at what temps it's opening and closing.


With all these measurements it's a good idea to measure them over about a 3-5 minute period and then record a low and high reading for each location so you have a baseline "range".
