In the winter the temp is more constant, in the summer one day it may be 72
degs, the next 92, so you would be programing the stat every other day
unless you want to maintain a constant 75 degress in the summer.If the high
for the day is 98, and the stat is set at 75 the A/C will most likely run
and never shut off not to mention never maintain 75.

I keep the stat usually 7-10 degress cooler than it is outside in the
summer, unless the high for the day is somewhere in the mid 70's I turn off
the A/C.


I program it once and leave it that way regardless of the outside
temperature, occasionally overriding it temporarily.

Set backs are ok in thewinter but hard to estimate the temps in the
summer.In the winter you can figure its going to be 30 degs for a high who
knows in the summer what the weather will do.


What difference does the outside temperature make?
