Help installing Janitrol HPT 18-60 Thermostat
I was going to replace my Janitrol HPT 18-60 thermostat with a programmable thermostat but found out the programmable one will not work for it. So I put the Janitrol HPT 18-60 back on and it not doesn't seem to work at all. Any suggestions on what to check? I made sure the wires were going to the correct spots and also checked my breaker.

blown low voltage fuse most likely
The most common thing that happens is that the person installing the new t-stat does not turn the power off and the wires are inadvertently shorted and the fuse blows. Check your low voltage control wiring fuse first and report back.

My husband doesn't want to ask, but he can not find the low voltage fuse box is. Do you have any suggestions as to where to look? We don't have a basement. Thanks.

Does the HPT stand for heat pump thermostat?,and maybe all thermostats don't work for heat pumps unless they have say some dip switch inside for them?
