FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Q: What are the allowable thermostat setpoints during the summer cooling season and winter heating season?

Per COMFLEACTINST 11300.2G, during the cooling season the thermostats shall be set no lower than 78°F (25.5°C). If your Japanese thermostat is not capable of being set to half degree increments, then it shall be set to 26°C. During the heating season thermostats shall be set no higher than 68°F (20°C). It is the responsibility of the occupants of each space to ensure that the correct temperature set points are followed. Some housing units have the ability to turn on heating units before the official designation of the heating season, or cooling before the official designation of the cooling season. This is not authorized.

Q: Why doesn’t my unit provide heating/cooling for a few weeks during the spring, and again during the fall?

Due to the configuration of the installed heating and cooling equipment, heating and cooling must be secured for about four weeks during the spring and fall (when outdoor air temperatures are milder) so that we can perform preventative maintenance on the equipment. This preventative maintenance reduces the risk of failure during high-use periods, which includes the hot summer months and cold winter months. We strive to perform this maintenance as quickly as possible to reduce the level of discomfort and appreciate your patience during this time.
