I'm not sure what you mean by "stir up the pot". Such surely has not been nor is now my intention. I have just been seeking accurate information and in all of the "promotions" for Skip's pumps I have ever read (including all but one of the 85 posts on this thread) I have never read that they were not recommended for use with thermostats. I first heard of that in an email communication with Skip just yesterday which I initiated as a result of 51 MERC-CT's comment (#30) and now hear from Chris that such restriciton is actually included with every one of Skip's pumps. Either there is no one but me using thermostats or such very relevant and material fact has at least been omitted if not outright concealed. I have taken quite a bit of gas on this thread for questioning the virtues of Skip's pumps and that I should just buy them and quit asking questions. I would have been pretty teed-off if I had taken that advice, counting on being able to use my thermostats year 'round, then, when I recieved the pumps, read the warning not to use thermostats with them. It's not just the 85 posts on this thread. It's the zillion promotions by you know who for years that has never mentioned this problem with Skip's pumps.
