Heating, Ventilation and A/C Settings for The End of Daylight Saving
Heating, Ventilation and A/C Settings for The End of Daylight Saving
The time on your clocks will be set back by a single hour when the daylight saving time ends this year.
You should also mark that date on your calendar to make the following alterations to your control device settings, so your heating, ventilation and A/C is primed for comfort and energy efficiency this coming winter.
At the start and end of daylight saving time, most control units automatically adjust the clock twice a year, however it’s a good thing to check that the time has fallen back though, and if it hasn’t, change it manually so your control device settings remain the same. If your control device is still set for cooling, take this opportunity to switch it over to heating so your home stays comfortable in spite of the frosty weather, but make any necessary adjustments to your busy programming once you’ve switched to the heating mode. By following these programming tips, you can set a schedule that matches your normal routine and provides optimal energy savings for you. Also, plan temperature drops at night, and during the night when everyone is asleep have the temperature drop by 10-13 degrees. During the week, set daytime adjustments, but set the control device 12 degrees lower if nobody is home on weekdays. Setback periods that supply the greatest savings should be established. Setbacks of six or seven hours per day will save you the most money, but consider the time it takes for your heating, ventilation and A/C to reach the target temperature when setting a schedule for temperature swings so your home is comfortable when you arrive home each day.
