1. This question would pertain to either the proportional thermostat or the standard type. In the winter my house temps dip into the low to mid 60's. Right now I just use the heat mat because my house is at 73 degrees. Could I also use a red heat bulb with the heat mat and would the thermostat adjust the heat of the mat as the bulb heated up the carpet? I wouldn't hook the light into the thermostat, just the heat mat.
2. If I went with the Ranco instead of a proportional thermostat, at what point does the Ranco let the temp dip down to before it kicks in. In other words, if I set it for 92, how many degrees does it go down before it kicks on to get to 92. Then at 92 degrees, it shuts off, right? Until the temp dips down again. I guess I'm wondering the range is for those of you who use the Ranco.
I hope I'm making sense here! lol
