Abstract
A thermostat cover assembly comprising a housing having a number of flanges for screwing the housing to a wall over an existing thermostat. A hinged door is provided and is constructed of a transparent plastic material and includes a digital clock mechanism that provides a time function in one mode of operation and an elapsed time function wherein the time since the last time the door was in the open position is displayed. This mode prevents needless tampering with the thermostat if the thermostat setting has been set within the last hour or so. In addition, the cover is connected to a switch that operates a light. When the door is opened, the light illuminates the thermostat allowing for adjustment at night.
