Yes, you're abolutely correct about ceiling heat being garbage. I suffered far too many sinus headaches due to that lovely contraption! First night there, I told my husband he needed to move the boxes away from the walls as I wanted to turn the heat on, (Nov.) I was fraid they were on the vents......... coudlnt' find a vent at all. I was thinking there's no possible way in Idaho that they'd have apartments without heaters and then his 6'4 self reached up and felt the heat
I bought the programmable thermostat about 3 years ago. Home Depot's vary in what they carry. You can order it through Amazon.com here:
