Price Response - Honeywell T7516A User Manual

ture program for every period if your schedule
does not require it; for example, if your home is
occupied during the day on weekdays, you can
program only the MORN and NIGHT times.
NOTE: You cannot set temperatures higher
than 88°F or lower than 45°F.

Price Response

You can also program the thermostat based on
the current price of electricity. Use Tables 7 and
8 to plan the Price Response program.
Price Response programming allows the
thermostat to respond to changes in the RSVP
prices. Your energy utility tells the thermostat
what the current RSVP price is for electricity.
These prices are: Low (least expensive),
Medium, High, and Critical (most expensive).
As the cost of energy increases, the thermostat
uses your pre-programmed choices to reduce
usage by temporarily changing the setpoint;
that is, it changes the temperature setting—
increasing it for cooling, decreasing it for
heating—or turns off the water heater and/or
appliance.
NOTE: You can enter the number of degrees
you want the thermostat to change
the temperature (offsets) for each
price except Low. The Low price
always uses whatever schedule
programming exists and it is the basis
for the offsets. The one exception is
the water heater, which is always
enabled during the low price.
