    Thanks, man!
    I'm thinking the temperature is room air temp, because we keep the house about there. The floor also feels that cold (ceramic tile). I'm also thinking that the floor heat is done by electric wire tape, because there's no boiler or valves under the room in the basement. If it is electrical, I at least know enough that I should check the continuity of the wires, except I don't have a multimeter and I don't know if I can measure the wire continuity of the floor wires from the wall unit. I've also looked for cracks in tile that might indicate that a wire is cut/broken, but there are no cracks.

    I was thinking it was liquid heating for some reason. Maybe take off control panel see if everything is connected

    That’s a great start. Now you know *when* it’s not working.

    Step on the gas, man. :rofl: It's not that far from ND to MI, and you're only in WI? :burnrubber:

    It's called Balloon Fiesta, and it's every October. I lived in NM for 16 years and never got around to going. Partly because I didn't want to deal with the crowds, but you'd see balloons in the air throughout the year. It was always cool to see.

    I turned it to manual mode at 3pm and set the temp as high as it would go (104°F). Floor temp started at 73° and as of 6pm, floor temp was 76°.

    Other thing is I don't know if it's heating up the tile in the bathroom, walk in shower or both. Or maybe it's under the carpet in the bedroom. I don't have the foggiest!

    Haven't done that yet. The panel isn't showing any of the error codes in the OM that I have. I'll try the reset option and see if that works.

    My dad and I have technically not had a day off work in over a month since for the last 4 weekends we've spent both days working on a new shed in my back yard. It's been hard, hot work but it's really paying off, the shed is basically done for now. Paint will come soon, and later on electricity and insulation. It's awesome having access to my dad's skill and knowledge.

    I swear I wasn't posing here, just got caught in action about to nail that piece of siding. My dad calls it Big Foot with a hammer lol.

    The shed is 10' x 24' with 8 feet on the right side partitioned off as my mower shed. Had to fit it between the back of the existing slab and the RV awning the previous owner built. The RV awning is pretty ugly but gives me tons of covered space to BBQ and store my boat.
