Temperature Offset

Temperature Offset is a feature that lets you adjust the room temperature reading +/- 5°F. This helps if your Sensi thermostat is in a slightly warm or cold spot, or if the room temperature does not match your old thermostat.

To update the room temperature reading using Temperature Offset

1. Open the Sensi app.
2. Tap on your thermostat name.
3. Tap on the settings gear.
4. Tap on System settings.
5. Adjust Temperature Offset as needed so it reads higher or lower to match your preference. 
6. Your Sensi thermostat will use the new number as the actual temperature of the room.

*This feature only applies offsets to thermostat, not sensors. 

If the offset adjustment (+/- 5°F) does not get you to the room temperature you like, it may be necessary to perform a load calculation on the building and HVAC equipment to confirm the HVAC equipment is sized correctly. In nearly all cases where a digital thermostat is not reading accurately, it is because of a poor thermostat location or an improperly sized heating/cooling HVAC equipment.
