20070194139 - Setback control for temperature controlled system: A program or subprogram in a processor, thermostat or computer that directs a temperature control system either contains or is programmable to contain an approximation that is applied to a setpoint temperature. In a heating environment, where a temperature setpoint is X degrees F. (X° F.), the approximation will assert... Agent: Mark A. Litman & Associates York Business Center

20070194140 - Thermostatic expansion valve: A thermostatic expansion valve is provided comprising an inlet, an outlet, first and second flow paths through the valve, a first valve element in the first flow path between the inlet and outlet, and a movable diaphragm having a first side acted on by a first fluid pressure and a... Agent: Kevin M. Pumm

20070194141 - Multifunctional restrictive valve: A multifunctional restrictive valve for controlling the flow of water therethrough. The valve has a main body with a flow channel through the main body. The main body receives water upstream thereof through an inlet port and passes it out through an outlet port at the downstream end of the... Agent: Daniel D. Chapman Jackson Walker, LLP

20070187519 - Appliance control with automatic damper detection: Methods and systems for operating a fuel fired appliance that may include an optional hardware component such as a damper are disclosed.
