SmartTemp Explanation
Page 6
The SmartTemp feature can save up to 30% or more in operating
costs over standard thermostats. SmartTemp gives you almost the
same energy savings as thermostats with motion detectors and/or
door interlocks at a much lower cost for both the thermostat and
installation. No external wiring is required for this feature.
8:00 AM: Most guests are expected to leave the room by 8:00
AM and either check out or be gone until check-out time.
12:15 PM: The room will not likely be occupied between the
check-out and check-in times.
3:00 PM: Housekeeping staff usually place the thermostat into
an occupied mode while cleaning the room.
7:00 PM: Guests typically leave for dinner and the room
remains unoccupied until they return to retire for the evening.
The thermostat only displays the setpoint that the hotel guest has
selected. When the thermostat is in an unoccupied state, only room
temperature is displayed, which the guest will assume is the setpoint
temperature.
The number of time periods, their start times, and the unocc-
upied setpoints can be set by hotel management to maximize
savings of operating costs and customer comfort.
Customer complaints are virtually nonexistent with thermostats
equipped with the SmartTemp feature, compared to motion sensor and
door interlock thermostats.

times a day(default unoccupied settings are 78 degrees and 68
degrees). The default times for unoccupied are 8:00 AM, 12:15
PM, 3:00 PM, and 7:00PM. The rationale for these times are:
