Maintenance: How to set your thermostat

[@MrAlmatic]

one of the stupidest a/c unit controller ever.

YEP!!!! POS!!!

[@otherworld11]

horrible

[@Monado6]

Unnecessarily complicated

[@cruelladreadvil8032]

Yessssss

[@msteach-rp7tk]

I can't stand this stupid thing. It's uneccessarily complicated. This is my home! Let me just turn it on and adjust it as I go from day to day!

[@lynnmahan154]

Goddamn right!!

[@johnturturiello7347]

Yeah

[@AlxandraJiavani]

Is this what adulting has come to. I will not let the shit defeat me! 😂

[@kathrynmcelroy5658]

no shit. Technology is sucking more more and more and more.

[@roblosh8417]

I love that they categorized this under “comedy” lol bc these thermostats are a SICK JOKE. Thank you for uploading.

[@salsalvio821]

Hahaha you’re not kidding! I think of myself as being somewhat tech savvy but this thermostat is a sick joke.

[@utterlyboredandhungry]

Yeah idk why thermostats are so harddddd

[@barryart89]

Most complicated thermostat ever. Whoever designed this needs to be reassigned. Most don't care about setting a temp every day...we just want to be able to set a temp and adjust it up and down manually. I have no idea how to do that with this monstrosity.

[@tiffanyryans279]

I agree with you 100%. Definitely a monstrosity

Absolutely.

[@jadar3159]

To maintain one constant temp Select your "system" setting of cool or heat Set your "fan" setting to auto. Press the hold button once. You will see the word HOLD on the LCD screen. Use the arrow keys to select desired temperature and that's it! You can adjust the temp up and down at anytime just don't hit the hold button again. I'm not a fan of this system either, I hope this helps 💖

[@jsowels19]

this helps but now it wont stop coming on. I set the desired temp but regardless of whether its warmer or colder outside it continues to come on. its so annoying

[@ltvanburen]

I have done that for three days and it’s still 77 effing degrees in here.

[@charliejervis2747]

I hate this thing too. It’s a pain in the ass.

[@jhanmaa]

When I hit hold and adjust the temp it reverts back to. room temp of 83 and does not cool back down to 77. 'Hold' and 'set' are flashing and I hear the fan but the temp does not go down. For some reason it now defaults to 83.

[@jadar3159]

@@jhanmaa I'm sorry I wish I could help. I've moved and no longer have this crazy system!

[@kellyemberson339]

how do you keep the temp on 76 all the time. and stay on 76???

[@James307307]

I too agree the device is absurdly over-designed, and for this reason I usually just set a particular temperature and keep it on Hold. However, just for kicks one day I took the time to learn the programmable stuff, and this video does a very good job of showing us how to set it up. In my case, I only need two settings per day, not the four options: when I get up in the morning I want it to be in the 70s, and when I go to bed I want the temperature as low as possible to save money. You have to set all four time/temperature settings per day anyway, so what I did was just set 7 AM for 72°, then just pick some time say, 8 AM for 72°, 1 PM for 72°, and 11 PM at 60°. The one nice thing about having it programmed like this is just before I get up in the morning the heater automatically turns on, so the house is warmed up before I get out of bed. And when I go to bed I don't have to remember to turn down the thermostat to save money.

[@nikhilgoyal007]

thanks for the explanation. but i have to say this is the most unnecessary and painful thermostat ever. I like my simple old calibrated thing!

[@Greg-wm4on]

Thank you for writing that. My sentiments exactly.

[@johnturturiello7347]

This is one painful thermostat

[@good1day726]

It’s ridiculous

[@kathrynmcelroy5658]

at this point tech is just fucking with everybody....PERIOD.

[@asangaisaiah9021]

Government. Please recall all these braeburn thermostats. You guys will hear of someone dying of extreme heat or cold because of a thermostat

[@martymerkt8006]

This is the most user unfriendly POS I have ever used. It is 81 and rising here in Fla

[@BABYDOLLNESTLE]

I friggin hate this thing in my apt. It's so hard to use

[@covewhisper7615]

99.9 % of population just want to set a temp for cool or heat every day and walk away. not have 4 different temps programmed throughout the day and a special program for weekend. stupid. maybe here is my niche

[@mike212916]

dammit why didnt you mention how to turn the automatic programming off. I set it to 75 and come back and its at 82 because the stupid programming

[@ryanquince4549]

This is the A/C my apt has and it’s so frustrating. I live in Georgia so when my A/C starts blasting at 83 instead of 72 like I have it preset, it’s incredibly annoying

[@jhanmaa]

This is what happened to me and I cannot undo it. When I hit hold and adjust the temp it reverts back to. room temp of 83 and does not cool back down to 77. 'Hold' and 'set' are flashing and I hear the fan but the temp does not go down. For some reason it now defaults to 83.

[@ggreene9158]

I am also in Georgia and it cold the room temp stay at 71 and cannot increase it to at least 73 or 74. the right temp I can control but cannot change the left from 71 any suggestions

[@danita650]

I have this same unit in my apartment. It’s not intuitive at all. You can not operate it without going to KZbin and watching a video to learn how to adjust the temp. I’d much rather have the old fashion kind with only one knob that you turn left (to turn down the heat) or right (to turn up the heat).

[@donnyboy2589]

Amen sister. Took the words right out of my mouth!

[@winstonrobinson4427]

You have to be joking. The most confusing thermostat I have ever encountered. Why not keep it simple.

[@WMGIII]

How about a button to set the thing manually? But oh no, everything has to be so damned complicated nowadays.

[@nikkiharris4409]

Why would anyone pre set temperatures for each individual day?! Why go through the headache of having unique temps throughout the week and then have one for the weekend. I’m currently sitting in my apartment with a temperature of 80 in Texas during the summer 😩 I’ve tried resetting it, I’ve tried over riding the preset temp but it keeps going back to 84. The creators of this thermostat should be fined and taken to court, there is no need to make something so overly complicated.

[@nikkiharris4409]

I would give up but that would just mean I’d probably pass out because of a heat stroke and I really don’t wanna go out like that.

[@ArishiaMosely]

🎉best Video. Thank you all! 😅😊❤😊😢😂

[@alexischaparro4129]

Mine says 80 I set it at 75 and it jus goes back to 80.

[@hawgsfan5]

Alexis Chaparro hi did you ever get this figured out?

[@leahsummers22]

Whoever came up with this thermostat, I hope they have to have it in their house the rest of their lives...because I just spent 3 hours trying to turn down the temptation from 85....in the middle of summer...in the south with 100% humidity. Only for the mid-level solution to be hidden in a 40min video 🙃.

[@reallydeja]

Literally. It’s so hot and my thermostat wants to play games and turn up to 80

[@victoria5689]

worst thermostat ever, shame on braeburn!

[@JenMulenburg]

So, how do you fix a toptech thermostat that's reading 80 when it's 68 degrees in the house?

[@bethgoshorn5385]

please help i thought i set my thermostat to 70 but it keeps counting up and now it’s at 79!!!

[@AH-vn9tv]

Mine too

[@mevalejj9707]

[@kaichen2962]

I got this! just press hold button, keep pressing arrow key when both “hold” and“set” are flashing, then adjust the temperature to 75. then don't do anything, that will be useful

[@jhanmaa]

It doesn't seem to work. When I hit hold and adjust the temp it reverts back to. room temp of 83 and does not cool back down to 77. 'Hold' and 'set' are flashing and I hear the fan but the temp does not go down. For some reason it now defaults to 83. I have to release 'hold' then set the temp, but it then defaults to 83 again.

[@JeonGregory]

I thank you for the Video, i did everything you said but my problem is my thermostat time is different than my watch time. Ex: its 3:30 pm on my Thermostat and is 6 :28 Am on the real time ! How can i solve that Problem?

[@kellyt.4107]

I have the same problem. I can’t find where any one says how to actually change the time on the thermostat to match real time. Has any one figured out how to do that? Setting my temps don’t work bc I do t have the actual time showing correctly.

[@cassie101]

@@kellyt.4107 Press on the daytime then use the up or down arrows to set correct time, day of the week, am or pm then press program

[@JohnDoe-ue7wd]

What a fucking nightmare. What happened to just setting a temperature and walking away. I'm not even old. I'm 27 and I have a college level education and feel like I need a degree in top tech. Sweating my ass of here because some rich champagne sipping middle aged women probably wanted different temperatures set for every day of the week and top tech had to satisfy that shitty worthless market.

[@Christie_Love]

As a woman myself, I can honestly say that we don't want a bunch of overly complicated tech stuff. Historically that's been a man thing. "Hey, dude, look at what my (insert any technology) can do." It's most def not a woman thing.

[@ganbarekrissychan]

Can I completely turn off the schedule Mon thru Sunday? I just need it on 70degrees when it’s 109 degrees

[@anniekirts6621]

This is a crazy video. What if you don’t want to program separate temps 4x/day, not incl weekends? I just want to have an arrow up & down to pick my temp. So simple. That is what I want to do. To no avail...

[@wendyparra826]

You have to or else it’ll keep going back to 68 and make you pay more for light

[@mak3m3u9]

Sweating my arse off here. Like many other commenters; I press hold, set it to 74, and then it just goes back to 79. When I press the arrow key, 74 flashes as set but it's still 79...It is so hot. Has anyone figured this thing out???

El termostato te da los dias de la semana y fines de semana. En cada uno de los casos te da la opcion de programar 4 diferentes tiempos distintas temperaturas durante el día. En cada una debes empezar de izquierda a derecha, utilizando el botón "prog" y las flechas para fijar hora/minutos /temperatura. Presionas una vez para cambiar la hora, luego presionas otra vez para cambiar minutos y luego nuevamente para cambiar la temperatura. Una vez terminado continuas presionando "Prog" para continuar con los 3 siguientes tiempos de la semana y posteriormente del fin de semana.
