Aprilaire 8344 Thermostat User Manual


 
PROGRAM EVENTS
Your thermostat has 5/2 (5 weekdays and 2 weekend days) programming
functionality, which allows the user to set four events for the weekdays
(Monday through Friday) and two or four events for the weekend (Saturday
and Sunday). The events are WAKE, LEAVE, RETURN and SLEEP. If you are
normally home on the weekend, you can set up your thermostat to use only
2 events (WAKE and SLEEP) on Saturday and Sunday.
WAKE is the time and temperature setting you desire when you wake in the
morning. The event should include extra time for the heating and cooling
equipment to heat or cool the house to a comfort level prior to getting out of bed.
NOTE: It will take some time for your heating or cooling system to reach
the desired temperature when returning from setback. Therefore, it is
suggested you set your program time before the actual time you want
your home to reach the desired temperature. For example, if you get up at
7:00 AM and have a 6 degree setback, set your WAKE event to 6:00 AM
to be sure the desired temperature is reached by 7:00 AM.
LEAVE is the time and temperature setting for the daytime hours you are
away from the house and wish to reduce the heating or increase the cooling
temperature for energy savings.
RETURN is the time and temperature setting for the evening hours.
SLEEP is the time and temperature setting for your sleep hours.
