The Test Equipment feature allows you to test heating, cooling, fan, or connected accessories to assist with troubleshooting and confirm the system is working properly. Cielo Smart Thermostat provides a convenient way to test your HVAC system.
🚨 Note: It's advisable to test your unit before seasonal transitions to ensure it operates efficiently. Checking the heating function as summer winds down ensures it's ready for colder temperatures. Testing your cooling system in the spring ensures it’s in good shape before the onset of summer. This proactive approach helps maintain your system's performance, allowing you to address any issues promptly if they arise.
