Comfort schedule: set different comfort ranges for different times
Comfort schedules let you define the lowest and highest temperatures for different times, such as night, morning and workday. Predictive heating uses these limits in the plan.
What does this setting do?
When enabled, the system uses the active min/max limits from the comfort schedule instead of simple day/night fields.
- Time-based limits: set different min/max for different parts of the day.
- Per day type: define separate schedules for weekdays and weekends (or other day types).
- More flexible than day/night: more than two blocks, with exact times.
Difference vs day/night comfort fields
You have two ways to define comfort. Choose one and keep it consistent to avoid confusion.
- When OFF: Predictive heating uses the simple day/night min/max fields in the configuration tab.
- When ON: Predictive heating uses min/max from the comfort schedule time blocks.
- Most common issue: missing blocks (gaps) or invalid min/max (min > max) in the schedule.
How to set comfort ranges for different times
- Enable the setting Turn on comfort schedule limits in predictive heating settings.
- Open the Comfort schedule tab Create schedules for day types (e.g. weekday/weekend).
- Add time blocks For each block set start/end time and min/max limits.
- Save the schedule Comfort schedule is saved separately — make sure it is persisted.
- Validate with Preview Run a predictive heating preview and verify limits are respected across blocks.
Examples (typical schedules)
Weekdays: sleep / work / evening
Example where daytime is slightly cooler and evenings are more comfortable.
- 22:30–06:30 min 20.0°C, max 22.0°C (night)
- 06:30–08:30 min 21.0°C, max 23.0°C (morning)
- 08:30–16:30 min 19.5°C, max 22.0°C (workday)
- 16:30–22:30 min 21.0°C, max 23.0°C (evening)
Weekend: longer comfort window
On weekends you may want higher minimum limits during the day.
- 23:00–08:00 min 20.0°C, max 22.0°C
- 08:00–23:00 min 21.0°C, max 23.0°C
Tips for predictive heating
- Make sure the full day is covered — avoid gaps between blocks.
- Keep limits realistic; a too narrow comfort range can make a working plan impossible.
- For savings: lower night minimum and allow a slightly wider maximum during the day.
- If control toggles too often: widen limits or adjust min ON/min OFF settings.
FAQ
Why are day/night fields ignored when the setting is enabled?
When enabled, predictive heating uses the time-block limits from the comfort schedule. Day/night fields may still be visible, but they are no longer the main way to guide temperature.
What if there is a gap in the schedule?
If some time has no defined limits, predictive heating may not have a clear target. Add blocks so the full day is covered.
