Question

Don't older existing house thermostats still work off of mercury switches?

Thanks everyone. Some good feedback. I think I'll provide the reasons for its use but stay away from specifics about the process as it's proprietary information. I always try and do as much research as I can before I put something in writing.

Yup, the old round Honeywell T 87 if memory serves.
