Advanced Features

ADAPTIVE RECOVERY

• Over time, the T9 thermostat “learns” how long it takes your system to reach your programmed temperature setting.
• The thermostat turns on the heating/cooling system early and assures that the programmed temperature setting is reached at the programmed time,, regardless of weather conditions. For example, if the Wake program period is set to 6:00 am with a heat setting of 70 degrees, the heat will turn on before 6:00 am, so the temperature is 70 degrees at 6:00 am. The thermostat displays “In Recovery” when it turns the system on early.
• Adaptive Intelligent Recovery® calculates the recovery ramp based on how far the room temperature is away from the temperature setting, previous equipment performance,,ce and weather history, allowing the thermostat to start recovery at the optimal time so it can reach the programmed temperature setting at the programmed time.

COMPRESSOR PROTECTION
The thermostat keeps the compressor off for a few minutes before restarting, to prevent equipment damage. During this “off” time, the message “Waiting for Equipment” is displayed on screen.
