Aprilaire 8570 - Manual (Page 2)

About half of all energy used by households goes to heating and cooling the
home. By selecting a programmable Aprilaire
® Electronic Thermostat, you have
made a significant step toward conserving energy usage and costs, while
improving your indoor comfort.
In fact, the Aprilaire ® Model 8570 Premium Programmable Thermostat has earned
the “E NERGY S TAR ® ” designation of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
This means that your Aprilaire Thermostat is a highly efficient, cutting edge
product that is good for the environment. It saves energy and costs less to operate
than similar products that do not qualify for the E
NERGY S TAR label.
E NERGY S TAR products help you differentiate between
standard efficiency and high efficiency products. By
using E
NERGY S TAR products, you are helping to prevent
air pollution while saving money on your utility bills.
According to the EPA, by programming your thermostat and taking advantage of the times
that a building is unoccupied or the occupants are asleep, an E
NERGY S TAR thermostat can
reduce heating and cooling bills by as much as $150. The Aprilaire Thermostat has
programmable capabilities that allow you full flexibility to set your heating and cooling
systems to meet your comfort and energy needs. As an E
NERGY S TAR partner, Aprilaire has
determined that this product meets the E NERGY S TAR guidelines for energy efficiency.
