NOPE!!

Completely different thermostat (the one you have).

The one that I have has the red thing and the green thing BOTH ON THE SIDES OF THE THERMOSTAT. The temperature reading is in a little display thing and there is a round thing in the middle of the thermostat with a BLACK pointer. This black pointer points to the exact temp. It usually indicates that my apartment is 70 degrees.

Now on the right of this round thing (outside of the thermostat), is the red and green thingees.

The red one is set to 70, and the green one is set to zero. We don't want the heat to come up after 11 p.m. at night.

So (in my home), we know that the red thingee is for the daytime (when it comes up at 6 a.m. and goes off at 11 or so).

And the other one (the green one), would have been for nighttime.

I will never understand thermostats, and if I owned my own home, I'd have the digital one that all my friends have.

I'm probably the only one on the block (besides my landlord) who has this older non-digital thermostat.

I DO thank you so much for trying to help.

If I ever find a website that shows my thermostat, I'll post a link here so you can all know what I'm referring to.

Thanks much

Melody
