What Makes Braeburn Thermostats Different?
by Burt Robertson
The new brands of thermostats which are on the
market today offer the basic same options and
features. However, Braeburn’s new premier series of
stats has raised the bar with more standard features at
or below the others basic model prices.
They feature:
Free Advertising
Your name on battery cover plate easily replaces blank
cover. Braeburn systems makes advertising your
company’s name and services quick and easy. Their
program allows you to laser mark up to 3 lines of copy
(30 characters per line) on the inside battery door.
This allows you to advertise your services while
maintaining the quality appearance of the thermostat
for the home owner. Other competitive brands
programs require you to purchase huge inventories to
get your name printed on the outside of the stat
making it unsightly.
The Braeburn thermostats
maintain the contemporary appearance of the
thermostat on the outside, and advertise your
company’s serices 24 hours a day on the inside. It is a
known fact the when a heating or cooling unit is not
working the first place everyone checks is the
thermostat. Your name will be the first thing your
customer sees when they lift the cover. You now can
get FREE advertising into your customers homes
where it will get the most attention when it is time for
maintenance or equipment repair.
Wall Mounting Plate
All the connecting wires hook directly to a wire
terminal strip mounted on the wall mounting plate.
After the wiring is complete simply snap the
thermostat onto the wall plate no chance of over
tightening the wires and cracking the printed circuit
board. Up grade from non programmable to any of the
premier line stats by simply unsnapping the stat and
snapping a new stat on, no wires need to be removed
the wall plate is the same for all the premier stats.
Adaptive Recovery Mode
The thermostat is equipped with a special deluxe
feature to maximize homeowner comfort, convenience
and energy savings. When in a set back period their
adaptive recovery mode will automatically
calculate when to initiate your heating or cooling
system up to 2 hours prior to the upcoming comfort
set point time. During this period it will monitor
system performance. This deluxe feature will
allow the system to recover to the comfort set point
temperature near the set point time selected by the
user, to maximize comfort.

There are two options in the hold mode, the
extended hold “LG” will allow the homeowner to
hold a desired set point temperature indefinitely by
pressing the hold button it is released by pressing
the hold button again. The short term hold “SH”
will automatically return to the program after 24
hours.
