What Is A Room Thermostat - Danfoss RET1000 MD User Manual

Electronic dial setting room thermostat, delayed start

... an explanation for householders. A room thermostat simply switches

the heating system on and off as necessary. It works by sensing the

air temperature, switching on the heating when the air temperature

falls below the thermostat setting, and switching it off once this set

temperature has been reached.

Turning a room thermostat to a higher setting will not make the

room heat up any faster. How quickly the room heats up depends on

the design of the heating system, for example, the size of boiler and

radiators.

Neither does the setting affect how quickly the room cools down.

Turning a room thermostat to a lower setting will result in the room

being controlled at a lower temperature, and saves energy.
