  • Predictive comfort control
    Patent number: 6695218
    Abstract: A controller that monitors air conditioning operation and performs calculations to determine when operation of the building's circulating fan would improve comfort levels. Based on the results of those calculations, the controller periodically operates the circulating fan throughout a subsequent period of time to moderate temperature and humidity levels. Excessive operation of the circulating fan is avoided. The controller is considered useful for generally improving human comfort levels in sleeping areas and particularly in residential structures consisting of more than a single story.
