220 is right about right, i threw in a 180 degree thermostat because i didn't like the fact that it was warming up that high (i live in an area that routinely sees over 100 degrees in the summer. i have no complaints at all about using the 180 degree, though i do have to change it out ever 2 years for the 195 so i can pass smog...s
