Energy Efficient Recovery (EER™)

The Energy Efficient Recovery (EER™) feature looks ahead up to 2 hours prior to the end of the setback (or set-up) period to begin monitoring per-formance and calculating when to turn on your system. It also determines whether the auxiliary heat or cool stages should be activated prior to set-point time to meet your chosen setpoint temperature. The thermostat will indicate EER in the display when this program feature is active. The EER™ feature will lockout the auxiliary stages until 20 minutes prior to upcoming setpoint time to utilize the most energy efficient first stage. The auxiliary stages of heating and cooling will be available during this lock-out period to maintain the setpoint temperature should the system not be able to keep up with the heating or cooling demand.
