THERMOSTAT

Your thermostat regulates the demand for heating and cooling in your home. It also controls the fan settings for the blower that pushes air throughout your home. Thermostats can be programmed to maintain a constant temperature or to adjust automatically throughout the day.

During cooler months, the thermostat should be set between 65 and 72 degrees depending on personal preference, energy savings, register controls, and outside temperature. Your system will be able to achieve these temperatures at the thermostat location if your system is running and being maintained properly, and if outside temperatures are not lower than 10 degrees Fahrenheit.

During warmer months, the thermostat should be set between 70 and 78 degrees depending on personal preference, energy savings, register controls, and outside temperature. Your system will be able to achieve these temperatures at the thermostat location if your system is functioning properly, and if outside temperatures do not exceed 95 degrees Fahrenheit.

If you are following these guidelines and managing these expectations, do not be overly concerned if the AC runs continuously during the hotter times of the day. Your AC unit is sized specifically to your home and is designed to not be turning on and off frequently as this would cause premature wear and tear on your equipment. So, it is normal for the AC to run while working to cool your home during the hot hours of the hot months of the year if in doing so it is able to achieve the temperatures listed above.
