RE: Do setbacks save energy without compromising comfort?

Thank you! I think the fall takes as long as it does because as the LWT/RWT fall, and they approach room temp, the delta t between them and the room t...

RE: Do setbacks save energy without compromising comfort?

The last 24 hours data, showing another setback and recovery, with minimal extra energy in during the recovery boost. This time the actual room temp f...
