An outdoor temperature responsive means is connected in the control system to maintain the heat pump energized during the space temperature setback period if the outdoor temperature is below some predetermined value. Additionally, the indoor thermostat has a high limit temperature responsive means for terminating the operation of the heat pump should the space temperature exceed some predetermined value during the space temperature setback period.</p> |
