Abstract
An electronic thermostat having a safety feature includes a controller which sends control signals to circuitry used for activating a system for conditioning air. The control signals are used to control the active state of the system for conditioning air. Furthermore, safety cutoff circuitry is incorporated into the thermostat whereby the safety cutoff circuitry is used to override the control signal sent from the controller when a predetermined temperature is reached in the space being heated or cooled.
