The Apartments I live in have an older Chiller system hooked up to a Nest thermostat.. I don't have internet. So,I set it manually.. What is the best way to set it?I Iive in the desert.. So it is about 111 degrees outside.. I'm not trying to save money, as the Utilities are included. Should I run the fan continuously? It always is pre-cooling, or says 2 hours. When is set to 70 degress, it's like 73 to 74 for most of the day..I would appreciate any input.. Thank you.
