Yeah, we have a Nest in our house and I have it set to circulate the air for 15 minutes out of every hour.
We started running it like that only at night as we found that the bedroom would get pretty warm during the summer while the center of the house (where the thermostat was) would stay nice and cool, but after running it like that for a bit, decided to just let that routine run all 24 hours of the day since it equalizes temperatures so well across the whole house.
- olyjohn 8y agoWow, I never realized that this would help equalize temps through the house. Our bedroom gets so hot when 2 people sleep in it at night. I have been considering putting a vent in the wall above the door so heat could escape to the rest of the house. Though all this time, I thought it was just the heat. I wonder if the CO2 levels are also what is keeping me waking up at 4-5am every day... I'm going to try this circulation trick with my Nest now and see how it goes.
- Klathmon 8y agoIt works fantastically! At first I was worried about the extra electricity usage or the extra wear and tear on the HVAC system, but after trying it at the recommendation of a neighbor, I've been nothing but happy, and I haven't noticed any change in my electricity bill so there's no worries there.
