Cool Savings™ Option

With Cool Savings enabled, the thermostat will make small adjustments to the desired temperature during periods of high demand to reduce cooling system running time and save energy. When the cooling system has been running for more than 20 minutes, humidity in the home will be lower and a higher temperature will feel comfortable. After 20 minutes of run time, the thermostat will start increasing the desired temperature in steps of less than one degree as the system continues to run. These adjustments will eventually cause the system to satisfy the thermostat and turn the system off to reduce the energy consumption. When the Cool Savings feature is active and making adjustments, the display will flash “Save”. The amount of adjustments to the desired temperature is dependent on the Cool Savings value that is set, 1 being the least adjustment and 6 being the most adjustment. With this feature set to OFF, no change will occur when the cooling system is continuously running during the periods of high demand. Periods of high demand will normally occur during the late afternoon and early evening on the hottest days of the summer.
