Don't think there's a t'stat with a swing big enough, but a little programming will do. How low will it go while still in heat mode. My Ritetemp goes down to 45, climatouch 41. Decide how long you want the heat to run in the morning. Furnace kick on is my alarm clock, 5 minutes later my bathroom's warm. Have to experiment with how long you want it to run in the morning. It was 2 outside here this morning and furnace didn't run overnight, -15 it will though at least once. Going to go set the swing as far as it goes and see how I like that.
Make it run twice a day, 30-60 minutes in morning, and same in afternoon if solar gain doesn't satisfiy it. Which is what I do on weekends, if I get cold I'll go bump it, otherwise the sun usually keeps it happy.
EDIT: was way off with my swing, it was at 2 of 6, bumped it to 4.
