An interactive system for controlling the operation of an HVAC system is provide that comprises a thermostat for initiating the operation of the HVAC system in either a full capacity mode of operation or at least one reduced capacity mode of operation, and a controller for an outside condenser unit having a condenser fan motor and a compressor motor, the controller being capable of operating the compressor in a full capacity mode and at least one reduced capacity mode. The system also comprises a controller for an indoor blower unit having a blower fan motor, the controller being capable of operating the blower fan motor in a full capacity mode an at least one reduced capacity mode. The system further includes a communication means for transmitting information between the outside condenser unit controller and at least the indoor blower controller, where the information relates to the operation of the indoor blower and the outdoor condenser unit. The indoor blower controller responsively controls the operation of the blower fan motor in a full capacity mode or a reduced capacity mode based on the information received from the outdoor unit controller, and the outdoor unit controller responsively controls the operation of the compressor in a full capacity mode or a reduced capacity mode based on the information received from the indoor blower controller.
A controller for an outside condenser unit of an air conditioner capable of operating in a full capacity mode and at least one reduced capacity mode, the controller comprising:
A controller for an indoor blower unit of an HVAC system capable of operating in a full capacity mode and at least one reduced capacity mode, the controller comprising:
An interactive system for controlling the operation of an HVAC system, the interactive system comprising:
An interactive system for controlling the operation of a heating, ventilation, and air conditioning system having a plurality of components, the interactive system comprising at least one controller for operating a first component of the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning system, the controller modifying the operation of the first component in response to information received about the operation of a second component of the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning system.
An interactive system for controlling the operation of a cooling system having at least a controller for an indoor blower and at least a controller for an outdoor condenser unit, where the controllers are in communication with each other through a network, the system comprising:
