I have HP with Propane furnace as auxiliary heat in winter. I have an outdoor thermostat on HP that will turn HP off and 35 degrees and turn on Propane furnace to heat from 35 degrees on down. At this time of year our house can get to 70 at night (outside temp drops to around 40 degrees) and at 6:00 am the thermostat calls for 72. This 2 degree differential trips on my auxiliary Propane furnace like it's emergency heat. Is there a way to increase this spread? I have a Honeywell 6000 series. From looking through the setup manual, it seems the only meaningful adjustment I can make is the number of cycles per hour which is currently set at 3CPH. Any suggestions?
I don't need the propane to come on in the morning when the outside temp is 45 degrees. My HP is perfectly capable to slowly bring the home temp up 2 degrees.
