SYSTEM, METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR USE OF DYNAMICALLY VARIABLE COMPRESSOR DELAY IN THERMOSTAT TO REDUCE ENERGY CONSUMPTION

摘要

Systems and methods are disclosed for reducing the usage of a ventilation system. For example, one or more of the exemplary systems comprise a thermostatic controller that has at least two settings for the delay occurring between turning the ventilation system off and then turning the system back on. One setting being for a first interval and at least a second setting for a second interval that is longer than the first interval. A processor is in communication with the thermostatic controller and is configured to evaluate one or more parameters including at least the temperature outside the structure conditioned by the ventilation system. The processor is further configured to determine whether to adopt the first interval or the second interval based upon the values of the parameters.
