Thermostats operate in a way so as to control (through their extensions) temperature about a selected setpoint. Some are fixed and some can have the setpoints selected. There must be some "sensor" in the device that will react to changes in temperature. The response of the "sensor" is used to direct intervention to affect control of the temperature. Wikipedia has a good post on the different types of thermostat and how they work. A link is provided.

Can a bad thermostat cause your home heat not to work?
Yes, a bad thermostat can cause your home heat not to work properly. If the thermostat is not functioning correctly, it may not be sending the signal to the furnace to turn on and heat the home. It's important to have a professional inspect and replace the thermostat if needed to restore proper heating.
How do ice box thermostat work?
An ice box thermostat works by sensing the temperature inside the ice box and regulating the flow of coolant to maintain a desired temperature. When the temperature rises above the set point, the thermostat signals the cooling system to turn on and lower the temperature. Once the set temperature is reached, the thermostat switches off the cooling system.
What would happen if you put the thermostat in the wrong way?
If a thermostat is installed backwards, it can cause the heating or cooling system to not function properly. This is because the thermostat may not be able to accurately sense and control the temperature in the room. It's important to make sure the thermostat is installed correctly to ensure the system operates efficiently.
How can I save energy by lowering the thermostat?
Lowering the thermostat can save energy by reducing the amount of work your heating system needs to do to maintain a comfortable temperature in your home. This can lead to lower energy consumption and reduced utility bills.
How does the reverse acting thermostat work?
A reverse acting thermostat works by opening the contacts within the thermostat when the temperature rises above the set point. This action breaks the circuit, turning off the heating or cooling system. Essentially, it operates opposite to a direct acting thermostat, which closes the contacts to turn on the system when the temperature falls below the set point.
