4 System Testing

Braeburn 2220 - System Testing - 1

Warning Read Before Testing

  • Do not short (or jumper) across terminals on the gas valve or at the heating or cooling system control board to test the thermostat installation. This could damage the thermostat and void the warranty.
  • Do not select the COOL mode of operation if the outside temperature is below 50^ F ( 10^ C). This could possibly damage the controlled cooling system and may cause personal injury.
  • This thermostat includes an automatic compressor protection feature to avoid potential damage to the compressor from short cycling. When testing the system, make sure to take this delay into account.

NOTE: The compressor delay can be bypassed by pressing the reset button on the front of the thermostat. All user settings will be returned to factory default.

1 Move the SYSTEM switch to HEAT mode.
2 Press to raise the set temperature a minimum of 3 degrees above the current room temperature. The system should start within a few seconds. With a gas heating system, the fan may not start right away.

3 Move the SYSTEM switch to the OFF mode. Allow the heating system to fully shut down.

4 Move the SYSTEM switch to the COOL mode.

5 Press to lower the set temperature a minimum of 3 degrees below the current room temperature. The system should start within a few seconds (unless compressor short cycle protection is active – See note above).

6 Move the SYSTEM switch to the OFF mode. Allow the cooling system to fully shut down.

7 Move the FAN switch to the ON mode. The system fan should start within a few seconds.

8 Move the FAN switch to the AUTO mode. Allow the system fan to turn off.

Detailed Explanation of User Options:

Temperature Differential

(User Option 1 and 2)

The differential setting is the temperature control range that your thermostat will provide. The smaller the setting, the tighter your range of temperature control and comfort will be. The 2nd stage differential is only for systems with a second stage of heating (auxiliary heat).

Extended Hold Period

(User Option 3)

The Extended Hold Period lets you select the period your thermostat will hold the temperature when the HOLD mode is activated (See “Temperature Adjustment”). When LNG is selected the thermostat will hold your temperature indefinitely. When 24HR is selected, the thermostat will hold your temperature for 24 hours and then return to the current program at that time.

Service Filter Monitor

(User Option 4)

The Service Filter Monitor is a user selectable service monitor that will display a reminder for a required air filter replacement by flashing the SERVICE FILTER segment in the display. When the selected interval has been reached, and required cleaning or replacement has been performed, touch the RETURN button to reset the timer and reset the service monitor. Select OFF or a set number of days before the reminder will appear.

Adaptive Recovery Mode (early recovery)

(User Option 5)

During Adaptive Recovery Mode (ARM ^™ ), room temperature is recovered gradually by turning on the heating or cooling before the end of the set back period. The set point temperature is changed to that of the upcoming program temperature.
