How can I disconnect AUX HEAT in my geo system? Can I disconnect a wire in the tstat to disable AUX HEAT from coming on? What will happen if the system tries to call for AUX HEAT and it doesnt energize? Will Stage 2 still run?

Climatemaster tranquilitys have seperate breakers for aux. You could turn it off. Bear in mind....you are altering installer's design and will now own the results. Do not leave it turned off if you are away for a few days or more. joe

I would agree that you should not turn the aux off. It only comes on if you need it and if you need it you will want it.

Posted By IndyGEO on 02 Feb 2011 03:38 PM It only comes on if you need it... "If" aux only comes on when you need it, then it's fine to leave it enabled. Unfortunately some thermostats call for aux when it isn't needed due to it's logic (or lack thereof), and/or due to the setup options selected. Also, user input (programed or manual) may also be responsible for unnecessary aux engagement. I agree as well to re-enable aux if the house is unattended.
