Auto Recovery

Climate Technology’s Auto Recovery feature meets the ENERGY STAR® guidelines for energy efficiency by allowing the heating or cooling system to recover gradually from an energy-saving setpoint temperature to a comfort setpoint temperature.

Auto Recovery calculates how early to turn your system back On, so that the room temperature is already comfortable by the start of the comfort temperature program period. Auto Recovery works in both Heat and Cool modes.

For example, in Heat mode, you could have the following programs:

Program #4 (Overnight)

Program #1 (Morning)

Set Temp = 60°F

Set Temp = 68°F

Time = 10pm

Time = 6am

The room temperature fell to 60°F overnight. Rather than having the thermostat turning on at 6am, Auto Recovery would note the temperature difference between 60°F and 68°F and turn the Heat on approximately 30 minutes early. Therefore, the room temperature at 6am would be about 68°F instead of 60°F.

When the thermostat is in Auto Recovery mode, the display will

alternate RECO with time, and the program indicator will flash.
