✔ HEAT / AC
Guests, please do not turn A/C lower than 72 or Heat higher than 70. This can cause Heat pump type systems to freeze up. There are two thermostats, one upstairs and one downstairs. To operate the thermostats, please drag either the cold or hot circle up/down.
Note: with the wall of windows, in the summer months, the morning sun will warm the family room so that the upper thermostat may not keep up. Setting it lower will not make a difference. If it is a problem for you, you may shut all blinds, shut the sunroom door, and turn down the lower level thermostat to 72. We love the sunlight and love to promote the view and warmth, so you will find all blinds up when you arrive.
