The Set Point Controller setting is located in Home Settings->System Settings.
Set Point Controller is only available when using an integrated smart thermostat.
Thermostat
When Set Point Controller is set to "Thermostat", you will define your home set point using your smart thermostat. Flair will read this temperature and then open and close Smart Vents to maintain the temperature. Flair will not adjust your thermostat settings and will only adjust Smart Vents (and mini splits, window units or portables when using Mirror Mode).
Note: A Flair schedule or room holds will take priority over set point changes Flair has read from your smart thermostat. If you're using a schedule on your smart thermostat, we don't recommend using a Flair schedule.
Flair App
When Set Point Controller is "Flair App", you will define your home set point using the Flair app. Flair will then monitor the temperature of all Active rooms in your home and nudge the smart thermostat set point as necessary and open and close Smart Vents to maintain the temperature.
You can adjust the home set point in the control bar.
Note: The home set point control will only appear when Flair is the Set Point Controller.
Averaging
When Flair is controlling the set point, Flair will look at the average home temperature across all Active rooms. Flair then compares the average home temperature to the average home set point to determine when/if to nudge the smart thermostat set point.
If you have a smart thermostat in a room with no Smart Vents, it may make sense to set that room to Inactive to prevent Flair from using the temperature in that room to calculate the average home temperature.
Note: Flair will nudge a smart thermostat in no less than 15 minute intervals.
Preventing Conflicts
When using Flair as the Set Point Controller, if you want to use a schedule, create the schedule in Flair. If you already have a schedule on your smart thermostat follow these instructions.
