Hi I have a two storey house with two separate A/C units: one for each
floor. I have a normal work schedule during the week 8 to 5. When I
get home I typically stay down stairs until about 11:30 pm before I go
upstairs to bed. My prefered temperature here in tampa is 76 degrees

I am thinking about programing my ac, to do the followirng

1) increase the temp for upstairs and downstairs to 80 during the day
when I am not at home

2) at 5 pm lower the temp downstairs to 76 for my enjoyment downstairs
while leaving upstairs at 80

3) at 11:30pm increase downstairs to 80 and lower upstairs to 76 while
I sleep

4) at 8am the following morning increase upstairs to 80 and maintain
down stairs at 80while I go to work

Repeat this every day of the week.

Is this recommended? the builder of the house suggested that I should
always keep both units within one temperature degree of each other.
However this makes more sense to me.

Your comments would be appreciated.

thanks
