As the yokel said to the lost tourist;
"Ee zur, iffen I wanted to go there I wouldn't start from here."
The 7106 is a nice, self-contained (if rather old) basis for an LCD
digital meter but rather unpromising ground for a thermostat.
It doesn't have a means for monitoring a set point:
no way of entering a set point value, no way of storing it,
no way of comparing it to the measured value or outputting
an over/under signal, and, just to make life really difficult,
the temperature output is not just seven-segment encoded
but also XORed with the backplane voltage and oscillating
between V+ and an internal digital ground voltage.
You will have fun designing the logic for a temperature
controller around that.
OTOH, there are DPM ICs which include set points...
