Unhappy Has anybody used F.S.T. company

I bought a piece of equipment from F.S.T. company earlier this year, and when I finally used it, I found out it was defective! They instructed me to send it back and it would be repaired and returned at their expense!

It's been 4 months, with 4 shipping date lies, and now they don't answer when I call, or return my e-mails.

Has anybody had problems with them, or know what is going on there?

Thanks

Re: Has anybody used F.S.T. company

That guy never answers his phone ... if it didn't cost so much for me to have my place rewired, I'd have that thing removed in a heartbeat. (I've had 2-3 replacements in 18 years) These are the numbers I call and once in a while, actually get him ... same guy usually. 1-714-437-1150 or 1-877-854-6812. Best to you.

If you have four conductor wire ran to the rooms you can easily drop in a t max system on the existing wiring. Just need to run a power wire for the room timers. A central transformer is recommended over the individual ones provided with the timers.

Hap has been around for a long time but I hear he was working on some kind of
military contract and headed for greener pastures. I have a friend who has a bunch
of the 12 and 16 station timers he'd sell cheap.

Re: Has anybody used F.S.T. company

We currently have an FST 1200 that is completely crapping out. It times out some times and won't let you set the time and others it randomly turns beds on and off when it's not supposed to.

Does anyone know if I have regular boards (black plate with the button) that are already wired would I be able to just switch out the FST 1200 for a Tmax manager?
