  • Patent number: 12680720
    Abstract: Embodiments of the disclosure describe systems and methods for managing temperature control in an indoor environment, having a plurality of zones, by a Heating Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) system. The method comprises, for each zone, detecting a current temperature value of a corresponding zone, comparing the current temperature value with one of a first threshold value and a second threshold value for the corresponding zone, and determining, based on the comparison, whether the current temperature value reaches one of the first threshold value or the second threshold value, and in response to the determination, triggering one of a first control action or a second control action for the corresponding zone. The second threshold value is one of greater than or less than the first threshold value and a set point range for the corresponding zone when one of heating or cooling is being performed by the HVAC system.
