RECOVERY FROM SETBACK
The term
recovery
refers to the process the
thermostat uses to operate the heating or
cooling equipment to return the house from the
energy savings setting you selected for when
you are away or asleep to the temperature you
prefer when you are home and awake.
This thermostat uses a recovery process that
turns your heating/cooling equipment on or off at
the time you program the temperature to
change. For example, if you program the
thermostat’s heating program to 72°F at 6:00
AM, the heating equipment will come on at 6:00
AM and begin warming the house to 72°F. If you
want the temperature in the house to be 72°F at
6:00 AM, you should program the thermostat to
an earlier time; for example, 5:30. (The exact
amount of time it takes your home to warm or
cool to the temperature you want depends on
many factors such as the size of your heating/
cooling equipment and the outdoor tempera-
ture.)
If this thermostat is for a heat pump system, the
thermostat uses an algorithm when recovering
from setback that helps reduce the use of
auxiliary heat.
