How does Energy Efficient Recovery™ (EER™) work? Energy Efficient Recovery™ is an energy saving feature. During a set back period (or set up in cooling), it allows the thermostat to look up to two hours ahead to determine when to turn on the heating (cooling) system. During this time period, the second stage is locked out to allow the first (and most efficient stage) to bring your home to the desired temperature.
Who should I call for additional help? For additional troubleshooting information, visit our web site at www.about-i-series.com. To talk with a service representative, give us a call at 800-445-8299. What should I do if my power goes out? Make sure your family is safe and don’t worry about the thermostat. Your thermostat automatically retains the time of day for approximately two hours in the event of a power outage. All other programmed parameters are stored permanently in memory.
My energy bills are too high. Is there anything I can do? While we can’t do anything about the high cost of energy, we can try to use less energy thereby lowering our heating and cooling costs. Generally, the best way to do this is to use the EPA ENERGYSTAR® recommended setpoints for heating and cooling.
