On extremely cold days, a 6 degree difference between actual inside temperature and thermostat setting is acceptable. All rooms may vary in temperature by as much as 4 degrees. | Orientation of the Home, location of rooms and location of vents will also provide a temperature differential.

All rooms may vary in temperature by as much as 4 degrees. | Orientation of the Home, location of rooms and location of vents will also provide a temperature differential. There may be periods when outdoor temperature falls below design temperature thereby lowering temperature in the Home. Certain aspects of the Home including , but not limited to, expansive stairways, open foyers, sunrooms or cathedral ceilings may cause abnormal variation from these Standards and are not covered by this Limited Warranty. |
