Room does not achieve setpoint within
RecoveryTime.
The most common cause is that the
EcoSmart system is designed to recover
the temperature within a Comfort
Zone. The Comfort Zone is
programmable by Telkonet, and is
chosen by management before
installation.
The thermostat may be programmed
with settings not appropriate to the
specific deployment scenario.
Contact Telkonet Customer Support.
Telkonet will research the deployment
history, and determine whether a
completed Settings Sheet was provided
to us prior to thermostat shipment.
Note that Professional Services fees
may apply if a reported anomaly is
later determined to have been caused
by default settings when specific
preferences were not communicated to
Telkonet prior to device shipment.
Often an HVAC unit is in need of
servicing. For example, a unit with a
failing compressor or under-charged
refrigerant may not be able to
efficiently return the room to the
occupants’ desired setpoint.
Ensure the PTAC unit is in good working
order.

The setpoint cannot be achieved within
