The department of energy estimates savings of about 1 percent for each degree of thermostat adjustment per 8 hours and recommends turning thermostats back 7 to 10 degrees from their normal settings for 8 hours per day to achieve annual savings of up to 10.

The thermostat will wait 1 degree over the desired temperature 70 before turning on.
I m not sure what the differentials were for all of my old t stats but the new ones allow settings for differentials of 1 degree fast 2 degrees normal and 3 degrees slow. The difference is a 1 3 degree offset of the desired temperature. 100 degrees to 550 degrees f 2 200 degrees to 240 degrees f 1 200 degrees to 550 degrees f 2 40 to 90 degrees f 1 fixed 40 degrees f 1 view all full load amps 120vac 4 6 a 2 6 a 2 8 a 1 10 a 5 14 a 2 15 a 66 16 a 45.
