Change thermostat setpoints
Thermostats provide heating and cooling based on Normal and Setback setpoints. Setpoints are set for both heat
and cool modes and have Minimum and Maximum limits defined.
Normal setpoints
are typically used to keep rooms at a comfortable temperature when you are in the home.
Setback setpoints
conserve energy when you are sleeping, away from the home, or not using a particular
area of your home.
Minimum and Maximum setpoints
provide a range of temperatures. Normal and Setback setpoints cannot
be set outside the Minimum/Maximum range.
Tip:
Radiant floor systems take a little longer to reach their setpoints. If you create a Setback setting for your floors
that is quite different from your Normal setting and do not allow enough time for your floors to adjust, when you
switch to Normal settings you may experience a time during the changeover when you do not have the room
temperature you would like. Use the schedule to allow ample time for your floors to be restored to Normal setpoints
so that the room you are in will be comfortable when you get up in the morning for example.
