I like to leave my upstairs a/c set at 85 during the day in the summer (that's the max it will go)....
I noticed that during the heat of summer, the upstairs a/c cycles on every 15 minutes for about 2 minutes or less.
I guess that the thermostat is +/- 1 degree and it's pretty quick to cool the small upstairs down from 85 to 84 and also quick to warm back up to 85 again. This is putting a lot of cycles on my a/c system and my only intent is to keep it from getting too hot and humid.
I have googled like crazy and can't seem to find a thermostat that:
- I can set higher than 85 (maybe 90 or 95)
- and has an adjustable variance or at least a way to set the minimum cycle time
Anybody have any ideas?
Thanks, Kyle
