Yes, that is a simple solution. ThanksSimple solution. Throw the thermostat away. Install a wall switch. Too hot, turn it off. Too cold, turn it on. Problem solved.
If your knowledge is not enough to discuss, please ignore this topic. What is wrong if someone to find out the true if the heat is controlled from outside. Some professional people with high degree and experience dare not confirm that it is impossible, who you are to confirm other people are this are that.To my collegues,
Read post #20 carefully. His problem is not electrical.

If I understand your complaint, it sounds like your apartment gets unpleasantly hot any time the heat is on. If you turn down the control, it turns the heat off, which is fine, but then the heat does not return even when the room gets cold again?Thanks to all. This case has happened to me, I am living in apartment, the maintenance men have replaced two kinds of thermostat.
At first, the heat was on only at level 75 or up, it was very hot like up to level 90 if comparing with the same kind of thermostat. If I turned lower, the heat was off completely.
Second time, the heat was on at level 70 or up, and it was very hot, not like normal, and it was off completely at lower level.
The third time, the heat was on at level 65 or up, and it was still very hot at this level, not like normal, and it was off completely at lower level.
The fourth time, it was reduced to level 60, and the same, the heat was very hot.
Thanks for reply.If I understand your complaint, it sounds like your apartment gets unpleasantly hot any time the heat is on. If you turn down the control, it turns the heat off, which is fine, but then the heat does not return even when the room gets cold again?
What is the energy source for your heat - is it forced air gas heat, electric baseboard heaters, hot water pipes, etc? There might be control points that are not available to you, for instance the temperature of circulating hot water. But we need to know much more about your system.
