Hi

can someone confirm when the fan starts when you set the intervals?

 

for example 

let’s say I choose 9am to 3pm. 15 mins run time each hour 

 

Does it run at 9-9:15, and the. 10-10:15 etc 

 

thanks

Thanks

 

i just wanted to share this with others because it seems some are not understanding the question 

 

google rep confirmed that if you set the fan on auto schedule 

it will run the X amount of time within the hour at random 

 

for example 

if you sat 9am to 5pm and schedule 15 mins per hour

 

it will turn on at random within those hours so it could like like this 

 

905 to 920

1020 to 1045

11 to 1115 

etc

 

it will run 15 mins only ,’ and start at any given time within that hour time slot or every 60 mins from your schedule time range

Hello SkywalkerZ, 

Thank you for taking the time to let us know about your inquiry.

If you select to run the fan for 15 minutes and you have a scheduled temperature, or while your system is running. The fan will only run for 15 minutes per hour from the time you activate it manually or by fan schedule.

Please take a look at this article and let me know if you have more questions.

Regards,
Mark

Hey there,

On point! I appreciate your thoughts, SkywalkerZ. With that said, the reason behind the fan duration is to help you reach your target temperature faster and more efficiently, so you have the ability to control the fan to not run always when necessary.

Feel free to let us know if you have more questions in mind.

Regards,
Mark
